  • Patent number: 11512539
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods of coating a coiled tubing string, methods of conducting tubing operations using a coated tubing string, and associated apparatus thereof. In one implementation, a method of conducting a coiled tubing operation, includes forming a tubing string. The tubing string has a central annulus, an inner surface, and an outer surface, and the tubing string is formed from a metallic material. The method also includes coiling the tubing string onto a spool, and moving a coating into the central annulus. The method also includes curing the coating onto the inner surface of the tubing string to form a layer of the coating on the inner surface of the tubing string.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20200269276
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method of conducting a coiled tubing operation. In one implementation, a method includes forming a tubing string, the tubing string having an outer surface. The method also includes applying a coating to an application portion of the outer surface of the tubing string. The application portion includes a portion of the tubing string that will be disposed in a horizontal section of a wellbore, and the coating has a surface energy lower than a surface energy of the outer surface of the tubing string to thereby reduce friction between the tubing string and a casing disposed in the horizontal section of the wellbore as the tubing string is lowered into the wellbore.
