Abstract This case study presents the first deployment of a Conductor Anchor Node (CAN®) well foundation with a surface wellhead on the high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) Isabella Appraisal well, located in interbedded seabed conditions in the UK Central North Sea. Previous use of similar...

... Abstract With the further exploration of oil and gas, we have to search for new resources which buried in deep strata, and most of the deep and ultra-deep wells are categorized in high-pressure/high-temperature (HPHT) wells. The problem of high temperature and the challenge to the existing...

... roll to give a perfect smooth casing wall. A second jet with low temperature air is used to cure the resin thus setting it faster than the conventional way. The resin is capable to sustain pressure up to 4885 psi and thus making it a likely candidate for HPHT wells. It is highly resistant to chemical...

... Abstract The challenging nature of high pressure high temperature (HPHT) oil and gas production wells has necessitated the development of new technologies and the use of high performance materials and fluids. Inevitably, this has resulted in some unexpected phenomena and field failures have...

... Abstract A novel drill collar mounted pressure and temperature gauge tool has been used to measure and record temperatures and pressures near the bit while drilling the 8.1/2" hole section of a North Sea Central Graben HPHT well on the Erskine field in Block 23/26b of the UK sector.
