... pressure, it contracts and allows the well to produce. As the pressure decreases and until it reaches the low pressure, the valve closes automatically, and the cycle repeats indefinitely. The installation time of the SAV in the choke spans up to 3 hours, and the well is monitored for its correct operation...

...-annulus communication installation gas lift glv information wireline operation diesel reliability Introduction Gas lift has been the artificial lift method installed in most of wells and accounts for a great share of the Brazilian oil fields production for decades. Being quite well-known...

... Abstract An offshore producer well located in the North Sea was designed to include control lines connected to a communication nipple enabling the installation of a wireline retrievable subsurface safety valve (WRSSSV) in case the downhole safety valve (DHSV) failed. However, the DHSV had...

.... The added ability to kick off in the same trip now further reduces sidetrack times when compared to cement plug or conventional whipstock kick-off operations. This new open hole system has been installed in 18 wells in the United States (US), three different hole sizes, with 10 of these applications...

... been completed with a novel digital intelligent surface-controlled gas lift technology with the goal of assessing their performance and their feasibility as an artificial lift solution for producing unconventional wells. These installs mark the first ever successful installations of this technology...

... Sliding sleeve technology utilized in hydraulic fracturing operations has historically provided an effective means for stage isolation in cemented and open hole laterals. With the option to open or close sleeves installed within a wellbore, operators can regulate and control the composition...

... Fishbones’ Multilateral Stimulation Drilling Technology (MSDT) was installed for the first time in two conglomerate formation wells in the Edvard Grieg field in 2021. The field is located in the Central North Sea. The objective when installing MSDT is to increase productivity by enhancing well connectivity...

... cost. This paper will focus on the evolution of a mature well in a region that has been installing multilateral wells for over two decades. Originally drilled as the world's first tri-lateral well and several years later re- drilled again as a quad-lateral to add further reservoir contact...

... with downhole primary sand control or require sand management throughout their lifetime. To further aggravate the issue, most primary sand controls installed have suffered from failure after an extended period of production due to unacceptable high pressure drop in the near wellbore area which causes the screen...

... Abstract This technical paper presents the strategy adopted by COMPANY for Remediation of On-Bottom Stability (OBS) Issue during offshore installation of Light Weight Structure (LWS) at Malaysia Water at water depth of 54m. The knowledge sharing is based on the successful remediation work...

... Abstract An offshore well located in Indonesia required rigless installation of an insertable progressive cavity pump (I-PCP) as a cost-effective solution to restore production while eliminating the need to retrieve the upper completion for extensive maintenance. The well had been previously...

... Abstract Objectives/Scope During casing installation and drilling operations, Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) strings are often rotated inside deviated wellbores, generating cyclic bending loading that could lead to fatigue damage. This phenomenon has been previously studied and understood...

... and lower horsepower motors to suit the new requirements. Data from the field tests have delivered encouraging results. The pump has operated smoothly since installation and, in comparison to standard pump, has reduced energy consumption (savings of 10-15%) and shown a 15-20% increase in pump efficiency...

... according with the yearly New Technology Program. The operating principle consists in heating the fluid volume from tubing using the heating cable which can be installed inside tubing, for NF and ESP wells or outside tubing for SRP or PCP wells. The cable is designed and located at the interval of wax...

... schedule (planned sidetrack is not delayed due to unexpected longer tail production) and reduced P&A cost when using more optimal wells/slots for sidetrack. The next phase was the installation of the upper completion. During the upper completion run, a specialized stinger was used that was run deep...
