Abstract

A method and apparatus for multi-stage cementing of a well casing (12) which permits rotation of the upper casing string (14) independent from the lower string (16) during the second or subsequent stage of cementation in order to ensure full displacement of any borehole fluids. The apparatus is readily connected to conventional casing strings and connects the upper and lower strings (14, 16). The swivel (10) includes a lower tubular string portion (18) which is secured to the lower casing string (16) and an upper tubular string portion (20) which is connected to the upper string. These string portions are telescopically engaged such that the upper tubular string portion can be vertically displaced relative to the lower tubular string portion (18). Both portions include longitudinal splines (40) which engage to permit simultaneous rotation of the full string yet can be disengaged by displacing the upper portion in order to provide independent rotation of the upper string (14).
