Well Intervention Overview

The term intervention is used to cover all equipment and operations to intervene with the well. The well intervention team includes experts in all operations and equipment outside of “normal” virgin rock drilling methods and equipment. This equipment includes all wireline, coiled tubing, and pressure control equipment associated with surface technologies.

Preventive Maintenance Plan (PMP)

After an inspection has been executed and the condition of the equipment and pedigree has been captured in a dashboard (living document), a gap analysis will provide the foundation of the revised PMP. Horizon Resources will build formal maintenance tracking system to ensure that corrective maintenance and scheduled maintenance is implemented in a timely manner. A Horizon Resources inhouse engineer along with an intervention SME will write preventive maintenance and preservation procedures for relevant mechanical and pressure containing equipment captured in this workscope. 

  • Short-term preservation
  • Long-term preservation
  • H2S maintenance and preservation
  • In between well maintenance
  • Proactive maintenance
  • Corrective maintenance
  • Scheduled maintenance
