While corrosion is the number one cause of sucker failures, handling practices are a close second. Penta Completions provides field service techs to help ensure that your rods are handled and installed correctly, leading to fewer failures. Improper handling leads to bent rods and stress risers forming due to elevator or rig floor damage. Incorrect make-up procedures lead to failed pins and couplings. A poorly spaced rod string leads to deep tubing leaks and rod breaks, along with premature pump failures. A Penta service tech helps to mitigate these costly, but often overlooked problems.
