The simplest solutions are often best. Sucker rod guides not only clear the production path in your well, but also protect more costly artificial lift equipment including sucker rods, couplings, and tubing from wear.
TRC has a long history which utilizes our combined experiences in sucker rod inspection and tubing wear mitigation to obtain maximum savings for you through greater rod and tubing service life, decreased workover costs, and reduced well downtime.
TRC offers a complete array of conventional and premium guides for steel and fiberglass sucker rods to match a wide range of production applications for the most demanding wells, including high water cuts, high temperatures, corrosive and abrasive wells.
Let TRC’s rod string design services identify and recommend the correct rod guides to solve tubing wear problems. Rod guide design, placement, and material selection are crucial for obtaining the best overall performance from the engineered system.

For wells using TRC’s sucker rods, our Shear Tools should be run one or two rods above your pump to enable easy and efficient retrieval of your rods. The TRC Shear tools are made to separate at predetermined tensile loads, allowing the rods to be easily retrieved. The remaining rods and pump can be subsequently pulled from the well, ensuring the integrity of the rod string.
