About Company

With a diverse, global workforce spanning six continents, Frank’s is an industry leader in tubular running services, tubular fabrication, and specialty well construction and well intervention solutions with a focus on complex and technically demanding wells. Frank’s International innovates products meeting the increasing demands of the rapidly changing oilfield environment, helping customers achieve superior results and reduce total cost of ownership across the life of the well. Working with Frank’s provides customers access to experienced professionals who anticipate and solve complex customer challenges with a portfolio of technology-focused well construction solutions.

Frank’s International is engineering and manufacturing progressive, differentiating solutions that pair with a commitment to impeccable service delivery to meet the demands of well operations within complex environments. Our high-performance equipment for tubular running has set multiple industry records, while our tubular and connector fabrication capabilities and downhole drilling technologies optimize performance while preserving well integrity. We offer cement heads and diverter subs and other specialty casing running and cementing equipment, as well as retrievable service tools and other solutions for well intervention and abandonment.

Frank’s International provides a broad and comprehensive range of highly engineered tubular running services, tubular fabrication, drilling technologies, and specialty well construction and well intervention solutions. We innovate technologies that preserve wellbore integrity and bring the most complex wells into production more efficiently while enhancing safety through automation and reduced human intervention.

SOLUTIONS-ORIENTED

Frank’s is known as a leader in tubular running services, but it’s the company’s legacy of ingenuity and leading-edge engineering that sets us apart. We deliver customized solutions to address needs specific to deep and ultra-deep water, including heavy casing and landing strings, CRA tubulars, and other aspects of complex well design, along with solutions to meet the needs of land operators for horizontal drilling applications, long laterals, and increased automation.

COMMITTED TO SAFETY, QUALITY AND RELIABILITY

Safety is a core value at Frank’s International. Our target is zero incidents and injuries. We aim to accomplish this through eliminating at-risk behaviors through observations and pre-job safety analysis. We focus intensely on the quality of our products and services to mitigate failures. Our unwavering commitment to safety, quality, and reliability starts with an executive commitment to model, reinforce and cascade safe actions to every level of our operations.

SERVICE-FOCUSED

Frank’s provides customers the equipment, services, and knowledge they need to access the world’s complex oil and gas supply. Our customers can expect consistency and a prosperous well life cycle underscored by a lower total cost of ownership over the lifetime of the well. With the vast experience and high-grade equipment we provide, our customers benefit from increased efficiencies of their drilling operations and reduced downtime.

We are committed to delivering outstanding value to our customers, employees and communities where we live and work.

Since our founding in 1938, Frank’s International has emerged as a recognized industry-leading global provider of highly-engineered tubular running services, tubular fabrication, and specialty well construction and well intervention solutions with a focus on complex and technically demanding wells. Under today’s leadership, Frank’s continues to build on the legacy of the Mosing family and their commitments to innovation, safety and service quality.

Drilling Technologies

Frank’s global leadership in custom engineering and drilling technologies helps enhance wellbore integrity and reduce drilling time for our customers. These solutions also increase our customers’ ability to reach fields that were previously unobtainable.  We provide unique drilling optimization technology for deviated wells, onshore ERD wells, onshore vertical wells and offshore wells drilled in some of the deepest waters in the world. We work collaboratively with customers to mitigate the challenges associated with extended reach wells and complex formations, such as vibration, casing wear, hole cleaning, lost circulation, flow back, surge, RSS and bit failure, and excessive torque. Because we manufacture our tools in-house, we maintain superior control over quality, health, safety and environmental standards.

DOWNHOLE DRILLING SOLUTIONS TO HELP REDUCE NON-PRODUCTIVE TIME 

 Frank’s drilling technology optimizes the drilling practice while preventing failures, reducing overall costs and preserving well integrity. Our patented Harmonic Isolation Tool (HI Tool®) prevents unnecessary downtime by reducing vibrations, our Drill String Torque Reducer (DSTR™) tool prevents damage and losses from drill pipe rotating in casing and the wellbore, and our Cutting Bed Impeller (CBI™) tool removes cuttings build-up to support efficient operations and improve wellbore integrity. Our latest technology, the VERSAFLO™ Casing and Drill Pipe Flowback & Circulation Tool, improves trip time, reduces surge and swab, and reduces mud contamination on the rig floor. All of our drilling technologies and tools help increase operational efficiency while reducing costs.

Tubular Technologies

Frank’s is a world leader in tubular services and holds one of the largest comprehensive inventories of large OD tubulars and connectors. Our tubular products are fabricated with high-tech welding services and other custom solutions for toughness and fatigue resistance.  Frank’s International has pioneered custom tubular fabrication solutions. We were one of the first tubular service companies to fabricate top tensioned risers (TTR) for the Gulf of Mexico and are considered a world leader in the fabrication of TTRs. Our unrivaled custom tubular facility in Louisiana’s Port of Iberia is strategically located for fast and efficient delivery worldwide.

iCAM® Connection Analyzed Make-up System

The iCAM® Connection Analyzed Make-up System represents a game-changing disruption in tubular connection analysis and control technology. The iCAM® system’s artificial intelligence engine and machine learning capabilities provide automated evaluation of connection make-up data, offering flexible integration with equipment such as power tongs and CRTs to produce optimal connection integrity and accelerate the make-up process, with the potential to reduce personnel on board.  The iCAM® system draws upon a dynamic trove of data consisting of millions of connection make-ups to positively identify anomalies, including thread and seal interference, dope squeeze, galling and other factors outside of conventional make-up criteria. This enables the iCAM® system to evaluate each connection for proper make-up against more robust and descriptive criteria than possible with traditional OEM rules-based parameters and to do so objectively. The result is a more accurate, reliable, and consistent assessment of tubular connection integrity.
