WWT FlexShoe Guides Liner to Bottom
The WWT FlexShoe, model FLX-450, was picked up and run in the hole without difficulty. The 4-1/2in casing was run through the window without any noticeable drag, and run through the window. The casing was also run to TD without any drag or tight spots, as seen on the hookload chart below. There were no issues circulating mud, LCM, or cement through the FlexShoe.
The company man reported that the FlexShoe worked as expected, and that the liner got to bottom without issue.
