Bottom portion of casing is run dry (not filled with fluid), with Davis Fl t ti Collar Flotation C ll installed i t ll d at t desired d i d depth. Casing above the DFC is filled with drilling g fluid as casing g run continues to desired depth.

Casing pressure is increased until the opening sleeve shifts down to permit fluid and air to swap. After a fluid stabilization period, the casing is filled with drilling fluid.

Bottom cementing plug or Indicator plug is launched ahead of cement. cement After landing on the bottom sleeve, it pushes both DFC sleeves ahead of the cement to the float collar below.

Bottom cementing plug and sleeves land and seal on the float collar. collar Bottom cementing plug ruptures, and cement is pumped through and out of the float equipment.

Top cementing plug seals and locks on bottom cementing plug/DFC assembly at the float collar.

OPERATIONAL FEATURES/BENEFITS OF FAC TOOL Ability to check that float equipment is functioning correctly immediately after making up into casing string. Time savings g realized by y filling g each casing gj joint as it is run vs. shutting g down to fill casing with mud hose. Reduces the risk of stuck casing by eliminating down-time to fill casing Ability to immediately circulate casing by engaging element creates a safer working environment by eliminating the need to install a pump-in swage. Also allows for immediate well control by circulating heavier fluids as needed. For applications where self-filling float equipment is used, it allows for control of mud that might otherwise spill over the open casing necessitating cleanup. p
