Halliburton Company announced that its XtremeGrip liner hangers were installed to a depth of 30,924 feet in the development of Stampede in deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico , establishing a record depth for XtremeGrip system. To facilitate the findings, Halliburton has installed a total of 37 XtremeGrip flooring expandable into seven wells to date, with no need for liner leaks or repair work.
The challenge for the Halliburton on the Stampede project was to isolate multiple hydrocarbon bearing sands through drilling coatings and cement production. The unrestricted flow path of the XtremeGrip system prior to setup and its ability to rotate while cementing provided effective and reliable insulation without costly cement remediation.
Each Stampede well includes up to five XtremeGrip coating facilities, making consecutive coating perform an important part of the well construction process. The facilities started with a 13 7/8 in. drilling liner inside a 16-in. packing. Subsequent hooks support another drilling liner, followed by two production liners, through multiple reservoirs. Each well then had a production liner tied with a liner for structural integrity.
"In technically challenging offshore environments , safe and flawless execution is vital to the projects ultimate success," said Mark Dawson, vice president of Halliburton Completion Tools. "We are very pleased with the reliability of the XtremeGrip system in ultra deep wells. Backed by Hesss highly collaborative work environment, we delivered the excellent results achieved at Stampede wells. The overall scope of these projects has accumulated at over 143,000 feet. more than 27 ml, with a total weight of 9.3 million pounds. Halliburton provided these impressive results without any costly remediation for our customers. "
Stampede deep-water oil and gas development is located 115 km south of Fourchon, Louisiana, in the Gulf of Mexico (Blocks 468, 511 and 512) at approximately 3,500 feet of water, with a reservoir depth of 30,000 feet. reached the first oil in January 2018, just over three years after project approval, and despite the technical challenges faced by working with one of the most complex reservoirs in the Gulf.
