Halliburton has announced the IntelliTTCE™ service, a through-tubing cement evaluation service that helps operators verify zonal isolation before plug and abandonment (P&A) operations. The service verifies barrier integrity before abandonment, helping operators avoid unnecessary tubing retrieval and plan P&A campaigns around real well conditions.
Conventional cement evaluation workflows often require tubing removal and rig mobilization before operators fully understand cement condition and well integrity. As a result, critical well information may not be available during the early stages of P&A planning. IntelliTTCE service helps address this challenge by evaluating cement through tubing and providing diagnostic information before resource mobilization.
'Reliable well data early in project planning helps operators define intervention strategies with greater certainty. IntelliTTCE service brings that evaluation to the front end of the process and helps customers make better decisions around actual well conditions rather than preliminary assumptions, ' said Chris Tevis, vice president, Wireline and Perforating, Halliburton
The service combines dual independent deterministic evaluation methods and high-resolution azimuthal cement mapping to characterize cement conditions behind pipe. Designed for offshore P&A applications, its physics-based through-tubing evaluation approach delivers consistent, repeatable diagnostic results.
IntelliTTCE service helps operators move from contingency-based planning to planning based on actual well conditions. The resulting evaluation helps operators define the scope and sequence of subsequent P&A intervention activities with greater confidence in well conditions before key planning decisions are made.
