Decommissioning

Oil and gas decommissioning is crucial when offshore wells reach the end of their productive lives, requiring safe infrastructure removal and environmental restoration. We prioritize safety, environmental stewardship, and regulatory compliance in all decommissioning projects. Our experienced team, strong partnerships, and regional expertise enable us to provide efficient, cost-effective solutions throughout the decommissioning process.

INITIAL INSPECTIONS

Conduct offshore platform inspections, assess equipment conditions, and develop safe boarding plans along with necessary safety procedures.

SAFETY PREPARATION OPERATIONS

Perform necessary repairs to platforms and wellhead equipment to facilitate decommissioning operations, verify navigation aids, ensure safe egress, close valves, and address any safety equipment needs.

WELL DIAGNOSTIC TESTING

Carry out annular pressure measurements, perform bleed-down and build-up diagnostics, install gauges, identify sustained casing pressure, test outer annuli pressure, run deep tubing gauges, and conduct formation injectivity tests.

WELL DECOMMISSIONING

Execute downhole formation isolation. If injection is not feasible, consider setting downhole isolation plugs or opting for permanent wellbore plugging.
