Customer challenges
- Improve drill out of 20” shoetrack to mitigate risk of bit/BHA damage whilst also eliminating risk of CART seal leak and improving cement compressive strength development
Expro Excellence
- SeaCure® provides an optimized shoetrack solution whilst moving the primary seal for the cement job to the shoe plus QuikCure® to optimize the time for the tail slurry to reach 100psi compressive strength
Value to client
- Drilled out 20” shoe in 14 minutes with 17 ½” bit ensuring TD was reached in one run and mitigating risk of Bit/BHA damage, whilst also mitigating the risk of introducing swarf into the wellbore
- Improved early compressive strength development of primary cement job
- CoreCure® sample confirming hard, good quality cement at the shoe
- Risk of CART seal leak eliminated with the SeaCure® BHA latched into the shoe and the running tool ball valve left open throughout operations
- Successful 3,300 psi surface casing pressure test conducted
- Successful LOT achieved
