FORT WORTH, Texas– GEODynamics has introduced ISOLOC plug and abandonment (P&A), specialized-perforating systems for remedial cementing and circulation.
ISOLOC perforating systems are used to establish communication between two or more strings of tubing or casing. The systems are said to improve cement plugging, squeeze and circulation operations with controlled damage to the secondary or tertiary string.
Perforating for remedial cementing operations without damaging the outer strings of casing is an essential element to efficient P&A and well circulation operations. High risks and rig time costs are typically associated with previous options for P&A and/or squeeze jobs.
According to the company, the new perforating systems reduce both risk and rig time, allowing operators to optimize remedial intervention efficiencies. Some operators have reduced the time to complete a job by as much as 90%.
John Hardesty, GEODynamics’ vice president of Engineering and Product Development, said: “Plugging wells properly by first perforating with ISOLOC systems helps prevent future environmental issues related to leakage, and preserves profits otherwise eroded by remediation.”
