Integrated Lower Completion With SwageSet Liner System and Maxflo® Screen Installation Uses Minimal Crew to Deliver OPEX Savings

Integrated Lower Completion With SwageSet Liner System and Maxflo® Screen

Objectives

  • Install 4 1/2-in. liner with a V0-rated, gas-tight liner-hanger system and robust sand-control screen to complete a high-volume gas well.
  • Safely conduct all installation procedures while incurring zero equipment failures or nonproductive time (NPT).

Our Approach

  • Weatherford completion specialists met with the customer to discuss plans for completing a gas well. After their review, the specialists recommended a 10,000-psi, V0-rated premium liner-hanger system to install the liner. They also advised installing Maxflo screens to provide optimal sand control.
  • The completion team conducted an operational review with full risk analysis and detailed contingency planning, then deployed to the wellsite.
  • The team installed a 4 1/2-in. S13Cr screen and liner hanger system using a SwageSet tieback polished bore receptacle (PBR), a SwageSet liner-top packer, and premium hydraulic-set static liner hanger (WPHS). In addition, the team installed Maxflo S13Cr premium metal mesh screens.
  • The liner and completion were tested as per plan, without incident.

Value to Customer

  • The SwageSet V0-rated liner system provided reliable, gas-tight integrity for the liner tieback, and the Maxflo screen delivered reliable sand control.
  • All operations were conducted safely, with zero equipment failures or NPT.
  • The installations required only one Weatherford completion engineer per shift, helping to minimize personnel on board for a savings of more than $40,000.
