The TEC Alpha Reach packs a bigger punch in a smaller package. Utilizing a proprietary rotary valving system, the Reach is expertly tuned to deliver optimum harmonics across the broad spectrum of high flow rates typified by modern milling and well cleaning operations with a reduced pressure delta across the tool.
Custom Flow Path
Reduced back pressure to support high flow rates.
Proprietary Valving
Delivers industry-leading impact through a proprietary valving system.
Short Length & Optimized Metallurgy
High torsional and bending capacity in demanding applications.

The Alpha Infinite builds on the success of the Alpha Reach product line by application of our existing internally developed valving technology to generate constructive interference between competing wavelengths in the tool. The result is the largest impact a single tool has ever delivered while achieving what competitors have struggled to achieve – a manageable pressure delta that permits continued high pump rates without inducing high pressure cycling of the coil workstring.

Alpha Maxx is a dynamic extended reach tool for drilling applications to aid in the elimination of stick-slip and maintain ROP during today’s long three and four mile lateral drilling. Compatible with modern MWD systems and utilizing an activation mechanism, the MAXX can be brought online at a desired time, keeping rig infrastructure free of damaging vibration and ensuring the well is TD’d at consistent ROP.

TEC’s Service Extended Reach Tool (SERT) is skid mounted and rigged into the high pressure treating iron between the pumping unit and the CT reel or rig. This tool can be selectively applied for corresponding phases of the operation when it is most desirable, and shut off when not required, making it the ultimate versatile addition to enhance traditional extended reach efforts for longer wells. This configuration also works superbly to complement snubbing applications where the SERT can aid in overcoming friction in the absence of pipe rotation, whenever such function is desired.
