A SLB Case Study
Cobalt International Energy needed to minimize rig time and costs during a deepwater presalt well test offshore Angola without compromising safety, quality, or tool integrity. SLB recommended its 95/8-in CERTIS high-integrity reservoir test isolation system for the job.
Using the CERTIS system, Cobalt successfully ran, set, and retrieved the test string in a single run, avoiding extra trips and reducing operational risk. SLB helped shorten the test duration by 2.6 days, while memory gauge data remained accurate for reservoir characterization.
