Type What it does (1-line) Valve Fill-up Best for
Auto Fill-up Float Shoe (Conventional / Non-Rotating) Auto-fills while running; reduces surge; closes after activation Single / Double Auto → back-pressure after activation Long strings; tight ECD windows
Differential Fill-up Float Shoe Controlled fill while running; lowers swab/surge Single / Double Differential Depleted zones; narrow pressure windows
Float Shoe — Single Valve Prevents backflow during cementing Single Standard Standard jobs
Float Shoe — Double Valve Redundant barrier against backflow Double Standard Tough wells; long strings
Guide Shoe Centers/guides casing for smooth run-in None N/A When float function isn’t required
Reamer Shoe — Single Valve Reams ledges/tight spots + back-pressure control Single Standard Ledges; doglegs
Reamer Shoe — Double Valve Reaming plus redundant backflow barrier Double Standard Critical runs
Stab-in Float Shoe (without latch-in profile) Stab-in cementing via drill pipe; faster placement Stab-in profile Stab-in Large-OD strings; heavy/viscous slurries
Up-Jet Float Shoe Directs flow upward; improves wash/coverage above shoe Single / Double Standard Better top coverage
Side-Jet Float Shoe Lateral flow creates turbulence; reduces channeling Single / Double Standard Displacement efficiency
Down-Jet Float Shoe Directs flow downward for bottom cleaning Single / Double Standard Clean shoe track

Unsure about grade? Share mud type and well section. We’ll recommend the casing float shoe to buy.
