COROD® Continuous  Rod


Weatherford’s COROD continuous rod is one of the leading well optimization solutions for reciprocating and progressing cavity pumping (PCP) applications. Serving as a superior alternative to conventional sucker rods, COROD continuous rod leverages its revolutionary design features, state-of-the-art manufacturing processes, and innovative global service options to maximize operational efficiency and enable cost-saving advantages. With over 25,000 installations spanning the past 40+ years, COROD continuous rod’s engineered well efficiency is a proven and viable solution for enhancing reciprocating and PCP operations the world-over.

Key Benefits:
Because of the highly advanced features of COROD continuous rod, operators can greatly improve the overall efficiency of their artificial-lift system while reducing maintenance and operational costs.

Uniform Body Design
COROD strings require only two connections: one at the top and one at the bottom. By limiting the number of connections to two, contact loads are dispersed throughout the entire rod string. This reduces the severity of tubing and rod wear, thereby avoiding the need for costly well interventions.

Larger Annular Space
The elimination of couplings, centralizers, and rod guides creates a larger annular space in the well, subsequently minimizing pressure losses and overall production costs.

Lightweight String Design
In comparison with conventional sucker rods, COROD strings are noticeably lighter in weight, therefore reducing the amount of string on the surface unit.

Innovative Service Options
Weatherford’s COROD continuous rod & flushbys equipment fleet provides reliable and innovative service options that are both timely and cost effective, with a proven track record of exceptional performance. Quick mobilization times, high levels of automation, and a globally based equipment fleet enables tremendous cost-saving advantages for our clients.
