Why Interventionless Completions

Stage Completions, offering the industry’s most advanced interventionless completion systems, is changing the game for operators. Our innovative sliding sleeve technology provides efficient and effective completions without the need for complex plug & perf operations.

More Control Without Limits

Experience complete control with accurate sleeve depths, consistent formation access and repeatable outcomes throughout the wellbore to maximize reservoir value. The collet and dissolvable ball activated sleeve system is large bore ID, cementable in place, unlimited in stage count and requires zero wireline or coiled tubing intervention. Don’t let traditional plug & perf systems tie you down. Stage Completions delivers multistage fracturing without limits. Learn more today.

Engineered To Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

Interventionless Bowhead technology allows on average a 40% reduction in hydraulic horsepower per well, fewer trucks and manpower required, less equipment with fewer gallons of diesel consumed – all sustainable activities that provide a direct CO₂ reduction.

Key Features and Benefits of Interventionless Completions

Reduced fluids into formation and associated cost
No pumping fluids required to drill out balls, seats and no displacement fluid required for pumping bridge plugs on wireline as per plug and perf methods
No remedial work-over required; cost reduction
No milling and drilling out balls and seats
Fracturing time reduction
Less time on location to complete the job vs. plug and perf and coil activated sliding sleeves
Reduced friction pressure permitting high rate fracturing operations
Ball seats cause high friction pressures and act like downhole chokes
Coil tubing fracturing also creates a higher friction pressure due to less surface area for pumping
Potential risk of failure is minimized with only one moving part
Designed to be cemented in place without affecting component functionality
Innovated for all extended reach applications without requiring intervention after the fracturing process
The unique uniform collet diameter design reduces risk of sanding off on flow back and allows for full production potential
Dissolvable ball allows for full wellbore access during flow back and production operations
