Paper: (16) CONTINUOUS RODS - WOLFCAMP SHALE

This presentation will provide information about the operational advantages and disadvantages of continuous rods.  By removing the pins and couplings in a deviated well, side loading is distributed across a larger area reducing the severity of wear on the rods and the tubing.  The types of continuous rods will be reviewed and operational data presented to assist others in evaluating their potential use of continuous rods.
