The expansion element and retainer size is carefully matched to the ID of casing to be expanded with the following features:
Four expansions in a single run with a three-element configuration leads to 12 expansions in a single run
Deployable with one, two or three elements resulting in four, eight or twelve expansions in one run
Low-cost, expendable elastomer element that can be replaced on surface
Sturdy and robust tool, even after dozens of runs performing hundreds of expansions
Deployed with service rig or coiled tubing
REED has never failed to expand the pipe, unset post-expansion, come out of the hole when required, or be retrieved from the wellbore intact
REED configured for deformed casing repair. The elements are sized to return casing to circularity and design ID, not expand the casing beyond original OD
