What Are The Disadvantages of Coiled Tubing?

One disadvantage of CT is its inability to rotate. This means you can not turn the pipe, which limits its flexibility and capability in certain operations.

Another disadvantage is the risk of fatigue and wear on the tubing due to repeated bending and straightening during use. Over time, this can weaken the tubing and increase the likelihood of failure, leading to potential safety hazards and increased maintenance costs.
