READING, UKExpro has secured a new contract to supply a high-rate well testing package and ancillary services for the INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG project offshore Australia.

The contract, worth over $50 million, will see Expro provide well testing, large-bore subsea landing string, well intervention, fluid analysis, and surface sampling services for a significant scope of development work with an initial phase encompassing more than 20 high-rate gas production wells.

The contract scope of supply includes a single-train, high-rate well testing package incorporating Expro’s 175 MMcf/d (5 MMcm/d) mega-flow recycling test separator and 7-in. ELSA LBEH large-bore landing string assembly, in addition to wet-gas metering and wireline services in order to complete, clean up, and prepare the wells prior to moving into the production phase.

Expro’s well testing system is designed to allow wells to be produced at maximum flow rate potential, reducing cleanup time, and removing drilling mud, debris, and completion fluids from the wellbore before handing over to the facility and production operations.
