What makes WAS cutting tools of ANT so specific?
Besides the general advantages of the Water Abrasive Suspension (WAS) cutting technology, ANT has developed specific solutions to further improve performance of the Downhole Cutting Heads (DCHs) in great depth and challenging conditions of internal cuts. Even concentric multistring dual bore wells can be completely cut in a single pass.
Cutting examples

3S Cut Verification System
Offshore subsea cutting implies being “blind”, especially during internal cuts of multistring casings. Our 3S cut verification system makes the whole cutting process visible in real time. A variety of sensors are used to display the cut in real time on a monitor, giving the operator reliable feedback and full control during the entire cutting process.
