The Problem
Pressure depletion has caused condensate build up to restrict/block high value Middle Eastern gas wells, shutting in all production in some cases.
Traditional methods such as velocity strings have failed leading to:
■ Restricted flow.
■ Loss of revenue.
■ Costs associated to previous failed interventions.
■ Trapped high value asset.
THOR as a Solution
A THOR system inserted into the gas well and placed within the 'liquid loaded' section. THOR would heat the liquid block, vaporising it back to gas and restoring production.
■ PROSPER modelling shows an +20oC [+36oF] temperature increase required to mobilise the plug.
■ THOR 'futureproofs' the wells against future blockages.
■ Restored production to operator of over 100 000 m3 of gas and 100 m3 of oil per day.
