Flowserve Drill Stem for Delayed Coker Units

Flowserve drill stems are designed for hydraulic decoking systems in delayed coker units, transmitting high torque from the rotary joint to the cutting tool while delivering water for effective coke cutting. Built for extreme operating conditions, Flowserve threaded drill stems offer exceptional durability and reliability in refinery decoking applications.

Compared to conventional welded drill stem designs, Flowserve drill stems provide a side load strength up to four times higher, reducing the risk of failure during coke cutting operations and extending service life in demanding DCU environments.

Flowserve Drill Stem Hydraulic Decoking Systems  in Mechanical Decoking Applications

Flowserve threaded drill stems are extremely durable for decoking service with a side load strength four times greater than comparable welded drill stem designs.

  • Applications:
    • Petroleum production and refining
    • Delayed coker units (DCU)
    • Hydraulic coke cutting systems
