Abstract:
Connectors may be used for connecting case settings in high temperature wells, such as geothermal or oil wells. The connector is simple in design and is able to take up thermal expansion due to temperature change when high temperature media starts to flow through the casings and when the well needs to be cooled down for maintenance.
