Optimizing Zonal Isolation with Cementing Software
DrillPlan by Schlumberger offers an innovative cementing software solution that allows users to interpret and monitor well data to achieve optimal zonal isolation. This software enables the evaluation of all parameters necessary for zonal isolation in various well types and casings. By using this software, operators can optimize mud removal, calculate pressures, assess and mitigate the risk of gas migration, and reduce contamination during plug placement processes. These capabilities play a crucial role in enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of zonal isolation operations in oil and gas wells.
Advanced Software Portfolio
Schlumberger's portfolio of cementing software includes advanced tools like CemSTRESS software, which helps in understanding cement sheath stresses to prevent failures and improve well performance. Additionally, the Invizion RT real-time well integrity service offers real-time hydraulic simulations to ensure cement job assurance by comparing actual parameters with expected results. The integration of software solutions like CemSTRESS, Invizion RT, and CEMENTICS zonal isolation software provides a comprehensive approach to achieving reliable zonal isolation in well construction projects.
Real-world Success Stories
Numerous case studies exemplify the effectiveness of Schlumberger's cementing software solutions. For instance, a North Sea operator was able to reduce non-productive time (NPT) by using a foam cement blend, showcasing the efficiency of the software in practical applications. In another case study, integrated technology facilitated drilling and cementing a production liner in a challenging formation in Russia, demonstrating how Schlumberger's software can overcome complex operational hurdles. Moreover, Dragon Oil successfully eliminated sustained casing pressure with the help of Schlumberger's cementing software, underscoring the tangible benefits of utilizing these advanced solutions.
