From its inception, the Scorpion™ plug was designed to do more than just meet expectations, it was built to push past them. Engineered for superior drillout times, optimized performance in extended laterals, and reliable setting in a range of casing conditions, Scorpion™ has proven to be one of the most trusted tools in the completions space. And that trust wasn’t built overnight.
“It’s hard to believe that we started out by producing and assembling a mere 20 plugs a month.”
— Don Greenlee, Inventor of the Scorpion Plug
What began as a concept driven by field experience and firsthand knowledge of operator challenges has grown into a leading solution used in thousands of wells throughout the U.S., Canada, and beyond. It’s a testament to the performance of the tool, but more importantly, to the people behind it.
This milestone is as much about people as it is about plugs.
It’s about the engineers and operations teams who continuously optimize the design. The manufacturing teams who ensure quality and consistency with every unit. The field crews and tech support who stand behind the product at the wellsite. And of course, the operators who continue to trust Nine with some of the most critical tools in their completion strings.
“Scorpion’s success is a direct reflection of the customers who believed in its performance and the Nine team who delivered on it every step of the way.”
— Nick Pottmeyer, President of Completion Tools, Nine Energy Service
We don’t take that trust lightly, and we’re proud to celebrate this milestone with all of you.
