An oil company operating in a mature offshore field faced increasing intervention and completion challenges in deviated wells. The use of Electric Submersible Pumps (ESP) was necessary to maintain production, but the high deviation and rough wellbore conditions were damaging ESP cables, leading to costly failures and production downtime.
Cable Protection During High-Pressure Stimulation Jobs
An independent operator in the Permian Basin was developing a series of horizontal shale wells utilizing Electric Submersible Pumps (ESP) and fiber optic sensing lines for real-time well monitoring. However, during multi-stage hydraulic fracturing, the operator experienced repeated failures of downhole cables.
