Toolserv: Innovative Well Construction Solutions for Challenging Oilfield Operations
Founded in Stavanger, Norway, Toolserv is a specialized oilfield technology company focused on developing innovative downhole tools and services for completion operations. Since 2007, the company has worked closely with operators and service companies to engineer solutions that improve operational efficiency, well integrity, and overall project performance.
Engineering Solutions for Complex Well Construction
With a strong engineering background and extensive field experience, Toolserv has built a portfolio of proprietary technologies designed to address some of the most demanding challenges in modern well construction. Its solutions are currently deployed across key offshore and international markets, supporting operators in complex drilling and completion environments.
Complementing its product portfolio, Toolserv provides engineering, rental, workshop, repair, maintenance, welding, and pressure-testing services, delivering a fully integrated approach to support customers throughout the entire well construction process. Its combination of technical expertise, operational flexibility, and close collaboration with operators has positioned the company as a trusted partner for efficient and reliable oilfield solutions worldwide.
Proven Swivel Technology for Completion deployment and WBCU operations
Toolserv`s latest product is the Longstroke Reamer. During lower completion runs, obstructions (micro-doglegs, swelling formations, cavings, tight spots) often prevent the string from reaching TD. Traditional solutions need rotating/circulating, increasing torque, stick-slip, twist-off risk, NPT & damage to completions.
The Longstroke is a robust automatic rotating reamer guiding the string smoothly past obstructions without string rotation or circulation. Fully compatible with all completions. On compression it delivers up to 4 controlled revolutions to ream through, then spring-resets. Ratcheting ensures one-way rotation only, preventing left-hand torque & twist-off risk. Protected spring avoids catching in windows/whipstocks.
Toolserv also offers the Screen Saver Valve™, a premium completion valve designed to enhance well integrity and prevent unwanted influx of fluids, gas, or sand throughout the well lifecycle. With more than 320 valves delivered across 19 fields, the solution has established a strong track record in projects operated by major companies such as Equinor, Aker BP, Vår Energi, Neptune Energy, and ExxonMobil Guyana.
Among its flagship technologies is the Drag Reduction Swivel (DRS) family, developed to facilitate the deployment of liners and completions in extended-reach, high-angle, and horizontal wells. Available in hydraulic, mechanical, and a unique adjustable torque limiter configurations, the system helps reduce friction, improve weight transfer, mitigate buckling risks, and ensure strings reach target depth safely and efficiently. The technology has already been successfully deployed in operations involving Equinor, Petronas, Harbour Energy, and ConocoPhillips.
Together, these technologies help operators improve drilling and completion performance, reduce operational risk, and increase efficiency in some of the industry’s most challenging well environments.
