Abstract
A roller sub for reducing torque along a downhole tool string. The roller sub defines a tubular body comprising an elongated shaft. The elongated shaft defines a bore, with the bore receiving an electrical wire or data cable therein. The tubular body also comprises first threads at the first end for engaging a first wellbore tool, and second threads at the opposing second end for engaging a second wellbore tool. The roller sub further comprises a roller body that is releasably clamped onto the elongated shaft of the cylindrical body between a first shoulder and a second shoulder. The roller body defines a second outer diameter that is greater than the first outer diameter and comprises at least two bearing members that permit relative rotational movement between the roller body and the elongated shaft.
