A retrievable drill pipe screen is adapted for releasable connection within a drill pipe string. The screen has a planar support plate for connecting a perforated tubular screen body to a fish neck wherein the plane of the planar support plate is generally parallel to the axis of the screen body. The orientation of the planar support plate provides minimal resistance to fluid flowing into the mud screen body while also reducing vortex effects that cause wear of screen components. Preferably, a wear distributor sleeve fits within the screen body for protection against wear of the screen caused by fluid flow and a retaining rod can secure the bottom of the screen body to the fish neck in the event that a lower portion of the screen body becomes detached.

Drill Pipe Mud Screens are an integral part of any directional drilling application. They filter out large particles in the mud protecting the MWD tools below. Automatic drillers for oilfield drilling operations need to be protected properly for cost-effective projects. Specialty Supply’s complete line of MWD Tools includes many different lengths and types of drill pipe screens for the protection of your expensive and sensitive measurement while drilling equipment. The Drill Pipe Filter Screens are made of 3/16” thick perforated stainless steel, with 17-4 hub and end cap heat-treated to H900. This combination of materials has been field-proven to outlast the competition in high wash environments. Our drill pipe mud screens are available in every configuration to fit your specific requirements.
A retrievable drill pipe screen is engineered to be more durable and efficient. The stainless steel construction is corrosion-resistant. It has greater resistance to flow cut and has an increased flow capacity. We HD Well Screen as a drill pipe screens manufacturer not only carry a variety of drill pipe screen sizes but also have many different flange connections to choose from, not only perforated drill pipes and slotted drill pipe screens, but also other customized types could be provided.
