VAM® HPTM is a gas tight Threaded and Coupled (T&C) premium connection combining maximum external and internal pressure resistance with increased compression. The connection was specifically designed to overcome problems associated with annulus pressure build-up in High Pressure/High Temperature wells.
It provides the highest level of performance, demonstrated through ISO 13679 CAL-IV qualification, and has been field proven in the world’s most extreme HP/HT environments to date.
VAM® HPTM is the next generation solution for Production Casing and Tie-back to safely contain the production of your HP/HT reservoirs and beyond.
