Expro为Apache完成首个综合弃井项目

Expro recently expanded its business capabilities to offer fully integrated well abandonment services, including late-life reservoir management, permanent reservoir abandonment and post abandonment monitoring.

The Apache work comprised the pre-abandonment and plugging of wells in the ultra deepwater Atwater Valley and Mississippi Canyon areas.

In March 2016, Expro utilized its well intervention services to provide the first phase of abandonment of the wells. This involved plugging, cutting and perforating, using slickline and electric-line cased hole applications to gain access to the wells and allow circulation.

Kevin Illingworth, global well abandonment manager, comments: “Our experienced teams provide integrated products and services, underpinned by the subsurface expertise within our Expro Group Integrated Services (EGIS) product line. This includes well integrity management, well testing, subsea and wireless well solutions, for temporary and permanent well abandonment.

“Expro is uniquely placed to understand the challenges that come with the re-entry and abandonment of an aging well population. We were delighted to demonstrate this on the project with Apache, and continue our global relationship with them.”

Expro has worked with Apache for over 10 years, primarily in its Europe CIS region, supplying subsea, well testing, intervention and sampling services, and well integrity software.
