Case Study: Offshore Well Producing Company saves time and costs with SLB's CoilFLATE packer and PowerCutter tubular cutter

Operator Prepares Watered-Out Well for P&A Using Downhole Measurements from ACTive Services

SLB helped Offshore Well Producing Company prepare a watered-out offshore well in the Republic of the Congo for plug and abandonment. The operator needed to isolate the lower completion, set a through-tubing inflatable packer in a very narrow tubing window, and then cut the production tubing just below the packer.

SLB deployed its ACTive live downhole coiled tubing services with a CoilFLATE packer and PowerCutter tubular cutter in a single CT intervention. Real-time depth correlation and downhole pressure/temperature monitoring enabled accurate packer placement and confirmed cutter activation, saving time and cost with no nonproductive time or lost time during the operation.
