The Radial Cutting Torch™ (RCT) is a patented cutting device from MCR Oil Tools used to sever tubing, casing, drill pipe, and coiled tubing without the use of explosives or hazardous materials, making it one of the safest pipe cutting tools on the market. Using advanced technology, the patented nozzle and proprietary mixture of various powdered metals produces jets of highly energized plasma to cut virtually any type of pipe in any well condition.

MCR’s Circulating Pyro Torch™ (CPT) technology was developed using the same principles as the successful and field proven Radial Cutting Torch™ system. Adequate flow into the annulus is required when expecting a successful cut while running an RCT™ job or other critical circulating required scenarios. Explosive perforators and punchers are not reliable at producing the consistent hole that provides sufficient flow, which has a dramatic effect on success when cutting with the RCT™.

The RCT system consists of the Torch, Torch Extensions, Thermal Generator Sub, Isolation Sub, Pressure Balance Anchor and is initiated with a Thermal Generator. The RCT system performs its cutting action without the use of high explosives or dangerous chemicals. In initiation, the powdered metals create a sandblast effect that easily and effectively cut all grades and thicknesses of tubulars. Standoff is not a problem with the RCT system.

When operations require "electric before ballistic" tool string handling, the Generator Safety Sleeve is required equipment. By design, the Generator Safety Sleeve will safely dissipate all Thermal Generator energy if subjected to an unintentional Thermal Generator discharge. Convenient to fasten and remote during tool string assembly, the Generator Safety Sleeve is the valuable Safety Tool for field personnel.

The EMA is an Electric Line deployed anchoring device intended for use with MCR Radial Cutting Torches. With an outside diameter (arms retracted) of 1 1/2”, the EMA-1500-100 can be deployed with RCT's from 1.500” to 3.375”*. This wide range of capabilities allows for cuts in 2 3/8” to 5 1/2” tubulars, all weights. *Arms for cutting 5” and 5 1/2” in conjunction with a 3.375” RCT are available as separate components from the standard Arm Kit.

The Fire Panel Filter gives you clean DC Power to prevent firing system problems. The Fire Panel Filter converts "dirty" output from a DC source and filters the ripple. The resulting output is clean enough for the most sensitive DC instruments. The Fire Panel Filter has a maximum voltage output of 500V with a 5 AMP fuse limitation.

Ensure that the job CAN be a success by utilizing the CheckFire System. MCR's CheckFire Panel system is both a firing system competency tool and an effective training aid for service providers. The panel, for use in conjunction with MCR's ElectroMechanical Anchor, can indicate if a wireline flaw or firing system failure can be expected while simulating downhole power thresholds.

The Pressure Balance Anchor is the same diameter as the Torch and is made of steel or aluminum depending on the size of the Torch. The Pressure Balance Anchor is run on the bottom end of the Torch and stabilizes the torch during the cutting operation. The cutting operation is made without the use of hold down slips, or any other moving parts that could hang up in the well. The Pressure Balance Anchor is a reusable tool, capable of many runs before replacement.

The UHP XRT systems are patented, non-explosive radial cutting tools consisting of progressively sized torches. Designed to cut wellbore tubular components between pressures of 15,001psi to 20,000psi and up to 500 ̊F, each UHP XRT delivers superior performance.
