Hydraulic fracturing holds great potential in the region, but there are several key questions worth asking as efforts move forward.
This paper describes the evolution of the operator’s initial PWC (perforate, wash, and cement) abandonment projects performed in deepwater Brazil.
The authors reach conclusions that the industry should define a standard testing method to improve swelling performance, including validation of repeatability, to complement existing guidelines.
