Heavy-Weight Drill Pipe Rental & Sales

HWDP for transition & directional work

In short

Spiral and plain-body heavy-weight drill pipe (HWDP) that provides weight-on-bit and a smooth stiffness transition between drill collars and drill pipe.

HWDP for rent or for sale — hwdp rental, suppliers, sizes, grades and connections, delivered worldwide.

Heavy-weight drill pipe bridges the stiffness gap between rigid drill collars and flexible drill pipe, reducing fatigue failures at the transition zone. Our rental HWDP is available in 3½", 4", 5" and 5½" sizes with integral tool joints, center upsets and optional spiral bodies to reduce differential sticking in deviated and horizontal wells.
