Well Capping Engineering Services
Well capping analysis focuses on the wellhead forces and pressures during the capping operation. For instances where wellbore straightening is required, Finite Element Analysis is performed to determine elastic and plastic deformations on the wellhead and recalculate the operating pressure window due to deformed sections. The capping and shut-in analysis reviews the well structure and operating condition for failure modes and consequences during the operation. Well integrity analysis is performed using Landmark’s WellCAT software to identify the potential weak points along the well. When underground flow is expected, qualitative broaching study is performed to evaluate risks. IMR well capping analysis services include:
- Wellbore straightening
- Shut-in analysis
- Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA).
- Broaching analysis
Relief Well Engineering Services
Relief wells are drilled from a safe distance to enter another well or in some cases, by passing a collapsed section of the same well. Relief well planning and execution is a complex operation which involves detailed planning, reducing positional uncertainty, interception, and performing dynamic kill operation.
IMR provides relief well planning which accommodates the magnetic ranging, interception, and dynamic kill operation. The relief well plan provides details on the trajectories, distances, and combined positional uncertainties, and angle of attack. IMR relief well services include:
- Relief well planning
- Well interception
- Relief well plan which accommodates the objectives of magnetic operation
- Preliminary relief well structure
