Zenith Energy成功拆除意大利海上首批鉆井平臺

An Aberdeen based well management firm has successfully completed the plug and abandonment of a platform well located offshore Italy.

Zenith Energy, which was established in 2012, provided well engineering and project management services to London-based operator, Rockhopper Exploration, successfully completing the P&A of the Ombrina Mare development well.

Utilising its experienced well engineering personnel, well delivery process and HSEQ management systems, Zenith Energy completed the project safely and within AFE, using the Atwood Beacon Jack Up MODU.

The operation involved re-entry to the existing well situated on an unmanned platform, bullheading operations, removal of completion, casing and wellhead equipment, and the setting of permanent barrier cement plugs.

Zenith Energy’s operations director, Chris Collie, said: ‘This project marks a significant milestone for Zenith. We have safely and efficiently completed our first offshore well management project, which was planned and executed by a small but highly experienced team within a five-month period. This enabled our client to take advantage of a rig of opportunity and permanently abandon their well at significant cost savings due to current market rates.’
