Drill string

Subs and Stabilizers

Crossover, bit and saver subs, plus string and near-bit stabilizers.

Overview

Subs are short components that join parts of the string with different connections or protect expensive threads: crossover subs change connection type or size, bit subs connect the bit, and saver subs take the wear of repeated make-up at the top drive.

Stabilizers keep the bottom-hole assembly centred in the hole, control hole direction and reduce vibration. They are available with integral blades or replaceable sleeves and in straight or spiral blade designs.
