Stabilizer
Stabilizers are thick-walled hollow cylindrical components with stabilizing blades on their circumference. They are the components of the bottom hole assembly and are used to provide stability to the drill string. Stabilizers help avoid unintentional sidetracks, minimize vibrations, and enable weight and torque transfer to the bit efficiently by ensuring that the drill string rotates at or near the center of the borehole. Stabilizers have box and pin ends with API connections to be able to easily install at the desired position in the drilling assembly.
