Well intervention
Some offshore operators invest tens of millions annually in well interventions, while others spend nothing. What drives the difference remains a mystery.
Plugging operations are scheduled to begin early 2026.
TechnipFMC, in collaboration with Halliburton, was awarded the 2025 ICoTA Intervention Technology Award and received the 2025 Curtis Blount Outstanding Paper Award.
