Dissolvable technology enhances operational efficiency of offshore completion operations on the NCS

摘要

VARIOUS METHODS HAVE BEEN USED to enable setting of a hydraulic production packer in an upper completion string, with typical systems involving temporarily setting an isolation plug below the, production packer before pressuring up the tubing to set the packer and test the tubing string. As it is often necessary to circulate as the completion is run to displace fluids or handle unexpected well control issues, traditional methods required intervention operations either during or after the completion has been run. This was necessary to remove both the temporary plugs and the devices protecting the completion tools from abrasive intervention operations.
