The variables involved in downhole gas separator selection can be challenging. Our experienced team will assist you in making an informed decision with a collaborative assessment of your production goals alongside the realities of dynamic applications.
We offer simple, time-tested conventional separator tools as well as advanced separators, utilizing cutting-edge technology developed for the most challenging downhole conditions.
Mother Hubbard (MH) Style
Poor Boy
- Slotted or perforated oversize MH mud anchor (steel)
- Used with a gas anchor or dip tube installed on the rod pump

Window Style
- Window style oversize MH mud anchor (steel)
- Designed with large windows to allow a formed gas bubble unimpeded passage out of the separator without having to reform again
- Used with a gas anchor or dip tube installed on the rod pump
Stainless Steel, Window Style
- Largest possible volume, window style MH mud anchor (stainless)
- Upgraded metallurgy for expanded volume while remaining extremely strong
- Designed with large windows to allow a formed gas bubble unimpeded passage out of the separator without having to reform again
- Used with a gas anchor or dip tube installed on the rod pump
WellWorx
The Max
- Packer style separator designed for today’s dynamic/high-production wells
- Creates the greatest tool OD to casing ID ratio possible, allowing users to maximize the annulus of a given wellbore; by increasing the size of the annulus, it decreases the downward fluid velocity of the fluid prior to pump entry, allowing gas to escape up the casing
- Increases gas separation efficiencies up to 20% compared with competing products, improving pump performance in rod pumped wells
- This tool is often run as an assembly:
- The Max
- The NR-1 Dual Cup Packer
- Helix Sand Bypass
The Helix
- The Helix Sand ByPass is designed to work with both ESP and rod pump lift systems.
- This patented technology is the only tool on the market that moves the sand discharge away from the pump suction.
- Utilizes a precision-cut, dual-channel vortex to maximize fluid velocity and trap solids in the solids channel, directing it to the dedicated sand drain at the bottom of the vortex; solids then drop through the sand drain, which ends directly above the entrance to the mud anchor
- This tool can be run:
- Below the packer of The Max system
- As a standalone sand separator on rod pump applications
- On ESP systems with packer and ceramic coating
The Halo
- All-in-one gas and solids separator with no packer requirement, designed for low-to-mid-range production levels in less dynamic environments
- Utilizes the ID of the tool body itself to separate gas, and utilizes the sand bypass technology to separate sand and solids prior to dip tube entry to pump
- The most versatile separator on the market, boasting a 40% increase in gas separation efficiency when compared to other combination separators
Porta-Test
Revolution
- Slotted and window style (spiral flighting) MH mud anchor (stainless)
- Designed to spin foamy fluid to form a gas bubble and allow passage out of the separator without having to reform gas bubble again
- Built with a brass dip tube installed in the separator
