Energy services provider Expro has been awarded a contract valued at over $10million for the provision
of a well decommissioning solution.
The solution combines subsea safety systems
and surface processing design to enable both safe entry to the well and
effective management of well fluids.
From
its global support hub in Aberdeen, Expro will provide a surface fluid
management package and its market-leading 7-3/8” large-bore subsea
test tree assembly (SSTTA) with surface tree and
controls, providing dual barrier and disconnect capability to facilitate
re-entry into the subsea wells.
Expro has supplied subsea safety systems and well test equipment
to this client for almost 15 years and was involved in the construction of many
of the 52 wells now being plugged and abandoned (P&A’d). This demonstrates
Expro’s ability to provide technical solutions across the entire well
lifecycle.
With an unrivalled portfolio of standard and bespoke subsea
solutions, Expro offers subsea well access systems that interface with any
Christmas tree type and can
operate in open water or within a drilling riser with blow-out preventer.
Expro’s surface
well test systems equally provide industry-leading solutions that can be
configured to specific well conditions and customer requirements.
Iain
Farley, Expro’s regional vice president for Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa, said:
“Having been involved in the development phase for many of these fields, we
have gained a life of well experience that will be invaluable for this P&A
campaign. Our expertise and know how will help deliver key technical and
commercial benefits for the client across the project.
“The
contract reinforces our reputation as the leading
provider of subsea safety systems and surface well test equipment, including
within the P&A sector. It demonstrates our commitment to delivering
best-in-class equipment, allied with the highest standards of safety and
service quality that Expro is renowned for.”
