Case Study: Alianza Casabe prevents ESP gas locking and saves USD 313,000 with SLB's Lift IQ service
A SLB Case Study
Lift IQ Service Remotely Resolves ESP Gas Locking and Saves USD 313,000 for Alianza Casabe
SLB helped Alianza Casabe address a gas-lock challenge in an electric submersible pump at the Peñas Blancas 3R well in Colombia. Using the Lift IQ production life cycle management service, the company needed a safe way to monitor and protect a remotely located well after gas production threatened pump operation and ESP failure.
SLB’s remote surveillance engineers used Lift IQ to analyze pump data, confirm the gas lock, and cycle frequency remotely to clear the issue without sending crews to the site. The intervention restored normal operation, prevented shutdown and workover activity, avoided replacement of main BHA components, and saved Alianza Casabe USD 313,000.
