Coiled Tubing Unit (CTU) In the oil and gas industry, coiled tubing refers to a long metal pipe, normally 1 to 3.25 in (25 to 83 mm) in diameter which is supplied spooled on a large reel. It is used for interventions in oil and gas wells and sometimes as production tubing in depleted gas wells. Coiled tubing is often used to carry out ...
Well stimulation is a well intervention performed on an oil or gas well to increase production by improving the flow of hydrocarbons from the reservoir into the well bore. It may be done using a well stimulator structure or using off shore ships / drilling vessels, also known as " Well stimulation vessels ". [1][2]
Coiled Tubing Drilling (CTD) is a drilling method that combines coiled tubing and directional drilling. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It uses a mud motor to create a system for reservoirs. [ 3 ] [ 4 ]
Snubbing. 340k units are designed to perform live and dead well interventions on both land & offshore. Snubbing is a type of heavy well intervention performed on oil and gas wells. It involves running the BHA on a pipe string using a hydraulic workover rig. Unlike wireline or coiled tubing, the pipe is not spooled off a drum but made up and ...
Pipe recovery is a specific wireline operation used in the oil and gas industry, when the drill string becomes stuck downhole. Stuck pipe prevents the drill rig from continuing operations. This results in costly downtime, ranging anywhere from $10,000-1,000,000 per day of downtime, therefore it is critical to resolve the problem as quickly as ...
Drill pipe (#16) is a joint of hollow tubing used to connect the surface equipment to the bottom hole assembly (BHA) and acts as a conduit for the drilling fluid. In the diagram, these are stands of drill pipe which are 2 or 3 joints of drill pipe connected and stood in the derrick vertically, usually to save time while tripping pipe .
Completion (oil and gas wells) Well completion is the process of making a well ready for production (or injection) after drilling operations. This principally involves preparing the bottom of the hole to the required specifications, running in the production tubing and its associated down hole tools as well as perforating and stimulating as ...
AGT – (1) agitator, used in drilling. AGT – (2) authorised gas tester (certified by OPITTO) AGT – (3) Azerbaijan – Georgia – Turkey (a region rich in oil related activity) [3] AHBDF – along hole (depth) below Derrick floor. AHD – along hole depth. AHU – air handling unit. AICD – autonomous inflow control device.
