Our field proven Stronghold® Barricade® system is designed to perforate selected casing or liner sections; wash and clean the perforated zone completely; then enable permanent rock-to-rock cement plugging–all during a single trip.
By eliminating the need for milling and debris handling, and preparing the seal zone to receive cement, the Barricade® System delivers a step change in plug and abandonment (P&A) efficiency and effectiveness.
Well assets are maturing and the need for reliable, cost-effective P&A techniques is increasing. Traditional P&A methods are often time consuming and costly. But decommissioning a well has to be done with permanent integrity in mind, and without compromise. The system provides an economical and effective alternative to traditional techniques. In designing the Barricade® System, our engineers focused on 3 key areas–efficiency, flexibility and reliability.
