Extended Abstract: Complex Offshore Well Intervention Now Possible by using Thru-Tubing Bridge Plug to Produce By-Pass zone and Isolate Lower Production Zone
Abstract:Isolating lower production zone (water shut-off) and finding new perforation intervals from another reservoir zone is a typical well intervention application in mature fields. In normal conditions, legacy permanent barriers (Through Tubing Bridge Plugs -TTBP) have been used in those applications very successfully. However, challenges are posed by, well bore restrictions (passing smaller OD restrictions), rig height, reliability and setting validations with legacy tools in harsh environments and well conditions… Show more
