Abstract:As deepwater well designs have progressed toward deeper targets, the well integrity risk of surface casing strings has increased. Surface casing strings utilized in deepwater environments are installed before the drilling riser is installed allowing them to be subjected to metocean conditions and difficult to handle and install. Additionally, the exposure from the well has increased the need for advanced connector designs and complex manufacturing processes to ensure well integrity is maintained.
