ADVANCED CONNECTIONS SYSTEMS FOR TUBULARS
IKE Licensed by Oil States Industries to produce a range of Connectors
for large diameter casing and conductor, pipelines and riser connections.
These connectors are designed for offshore and onshore operations,
where rig cost and drilling conditions requires a fast make up and superior
performance connector.
The Oil States Industries Connectors manufactured in IKE BATAM facility
are produced to the highest industry standard to ensure a trouble free
installation and service.
IKE field engineers have been trained by Oil States trained to professional
manage the installation on the Rigs.
Each of the connectors has a specific attribute which provides our clients a
comprehensive product range to meet all drilling requirement.
LEOPARD*
5/8 Turn Make-Up
This connector is a rapid make up designed with preloaded thread type. Has a high cone angel and is available in twin or four start thread. When stabbed the box swallows approximately 90% of the pin length. Stabbing guide prevents cross threading. Full make up in less half turn with for start thread and less than one turn with two start thread.
Size Range : 18.625”, 20”,24”26”30”36”
Attributes:
Low Torque make up, less than one turn make up, integral 4 point anti rotation provision, suitable for piling, reversible and reusable, visual indication for make up, pre loaded for fatigue.
PUMA*
OD & ID Flush
The puma is a flush threaded
connector for use on exploration
and platform drilling operations
where size restrictions preclude
the use of conventional upset
connectors. The connector is
fully driveable and utilizes high
yield material to enable the
connection to exceed pipe body
capacities, while using standing
pipe.
Size Range : 18.625”, 20”,22” 24”,26”,30”26”,42’,46”
Attributes:
OD/ID Flush, Make-up in
4 turns, Drivable-Double
Abutment, Integral Elevator
Shoulder, Double Elastomer
Seals, Visual Indication of
Make-up (External Abutment
Face), Connector Material
110ksi Hi-Hos Design.
SWIFT*
Metal Sealing
This connection is heavy duty
threaded connector for use on
exploration and platform casing
strings where high strength and
pressure integrity are important.
Compared to other connectors,
the Swfit DW2 requires very
low make up torque and can
be assembled using standard
tongs. It combines a double start
thread and reaches full make
up in 1.5 Rotations. External
indicator visually confirms full
make up. Sealing is provided by
integral metal to metal seal.
Size Range : 18.625”, 20”,24”26”30”36”
Attributes:
Pre Loaded for fatigue,
Primary metal seal and back up
elastomer, environmental seal,
strength equivalent to casing,
reversible and reusable, fast
twin start, low torque make up.
MERLIN*
Fatigue Resistance
This connector combines superior static strength and fatigue life with fast, nonrotational
make up and a slim profile. Typically has cross sectional wall thickness of
only 1.5”. These connectors have been used in sizes up to 60” OD and applications
for open hole and tieback casing, conductors, structural tubulars, pipeline risers
and TLP Tendons. The Merlin S is slim line verions, the Merlin D and HD are drivable
models, Merlin R for riser applications. The connector has been designed to ensure
the teeth can only interlock in the fully made up position. It is assembled with
hydraulic clamp and air operated power pack. When the pressure is release, the box
‘shrinks’ onto the pin. Make up is visulally confirmed by external abutment faces.
Break out is achieved by reversing the process.
Size Range: 20”,22”,24”,30”,36” and project specific requirements.
LYNX*
Weight Set
The Lynx is robust connector for conductors. It is the simplest type of connector to
run. The connector is designed to meet the bending capabilities of the mating pipe
body and be piled. These models stab easily, self align axially and assemble under
weight of the joint. When box is stabbed over the pin, join weight expands the lock
ring, the abutment faces meet and the lock ring snaps closed. Full make is visually
confirmed by the inspection of the lock ring. Lynx disengage by running jacking
bolts through the lock rign to release the pin.
Size Range: 18.625”, 20”,24”26”30”36”
