Manufacturing

Kobold delivers world-class manufacturing capabilities for our sleeves and other downhole tools.

Kobold partners with four ISO-certified Calgary-based manufacturers to build and test our tools, with all final assembly completed in-house at our Calgary facility.


We maintain a stringent Quality Assurance / Quality Control and hands-on testing environment, following industry-leading manufacturing standards and guidelines that are monitored by dedicated QA / QC personnel.
