RODEC™ Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool

RODEC Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool Graphic

Inexpensive, safe, reliable and easy to install, the RODEC™ Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool will increase the life of production tubing more than six fold.

Driven by a patented, PC pump compatible RODEC™ Auto-Turn™ Drive or by a reciprocating rod pump, the rotator works automatically to continuously rotate the tubing. The continuous slow rotation of the tubing provides optimum wear distribution.

With the RODEC Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool installed, you will experience significantly greater tubing life. Costly well service jobs and loss of production are reduced proportionately.

Automatic Continuous Operation

With the patented Auto-Turn Drive System, the rotator can be driven automatically and continuously by the rotating polished rod on a progressing cavity pump top drive system, therefore NO external electrical or hydraulic power source is required. On reciprocating rod pump applications, a pull chain and walking beam clamp are used to actuate the drive system. The Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool can also be driven manually, electrically or hydraulically if desired. The number of rotations per day is dependent on the type of drive system installed.

  • Retrofits any well with an existing tubing head
  • Extend tubing life
  • Reduce costly well servicing
  • Avoid lost production
  • Ideal for all down-hole pump types

Slip Clutch Torque Control

The RODEC™ Slip Clutch feature prevents the tubing from being over-torqued. The clutch will make an audible clicking noise to indicate that the tubing has become stuck or sanded in. The clutch does not require any field service, resetting or repinning after use.

Rigid, Compact, & Simple

The Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool serves as a tubing head complete with lockdown screws. The Rotator is a FIXED component of the wellhead and it remains in place during well servicing. The Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool is the most compact rotator available adding only 9" to the height of the wellhead. It is studded down to fit any existing API tubing head and flanged up to rigidly support the other wellhead components. The Rotating Tubing Hanger is landed in the Tubing Rotator Spool and replaces the need for a conventional tubing hanger. For added convenience, it is completely interchangeable with the other models in the RODEC™ Tubing Rotator family.

Safe, Standard Well Servicing Procedures

Installation of the RODEC Ultimate Tubing Rotator Spool is simple and safe. It remains in place during well servicing with the service B.O.P. installed on top of the rotator. B.O.P. installation and pressure testing follow standard API and ARP procedures. The rotator drive system remains in place during well servicing so that the rotating tubing hanger is automatically locked for screwing the pickup joint in or out, NO locking keys or pins are required. Tubing rotator spool bore and rotating tubing hanger diameters are in accordance with API specifications. The tubing rotator spool bore is full opening and allows for running all down-hole tools. The rotating tubing hanger can be pulled through the service B.O.P. and allows for snubbing procedures. Installation can be done by the service rig crew with no special tools or wellhead modifications. All models are supplied crated with all of the necessary hardware for a complete installation.
