Well intervention
This paper details a trial involving the deployment of a transportable coiled tubing (CT) unit capable of holding 30,000 ft of high-strength 2⅞-in. CT.
This paper presents a novel approach to overcoming extended-reach limitations in coiled tubing interventions by using a split-string system, demonstrating measurable improvements in reach and operational speed in laterals exceeding 3 miles.
This paper describes the successful deployment of flexible coiled tubing technology in an oil-producing well of the offshore Frade field in Brazil’s Campos Basin.
