Optimization of Design Using Computational Fluid Dynamics Technique for New P&A Down Hole Milling Technology - Case Studies of Rig Run Comparisons Validating Design Changes
Abstract:Hydrocarbon migration after plug and abandonment (P&A) operations negates well integrity and threatens the environment. A section milling procedure for P&A that achieves rock to rock bond eliminates the risk of releasing fluids and gases to surface. This section milling procedure usually involves milling a window in the inner casing and then creating another window in the adjacent outer casing. The tool developed for this process is commonly known as dual string section milling (DSSM) tool. Simulations… Show more
