P&A From Vessels

Pulling Crown Plug

Well Stroker

Most times Crown plugs are retrieved using Slick Line

Most common reason for not being able to pull the Crown

GS Pulling tool

plug is debris / fill on top of the plug.

The Crown plug typically has a GS profile.

Crown Plugs

Well Stroker General Description

The Well Stroker is capable of applying Axial force

downhole by the use of a bi-directional hydraulic ram. The

Stroker can be fitted with various shifting or pulling tools

for Mechanical services solutions.

Plug setting
Plug Setting Tool, none explosive

General Description
Electro Hydraulic operational setting tool for plugs, packers and straddle
systems
The tool requires no form of explosives or pre-charge of pressure and is
not dependent on well pressure for operation
The WST can be used to set any plug run on Baker #20 E4 setting tool
Technical Description
Make up length: 4,2 m
Maximum OD: 3 7/8
Maximum stroke length: 14
Maximum stroke force: 55.000 lbf
Maximum operational temp: 135 C
Maximum well pressure: 10.000 psi
Setting sleeve connection: Running tool/plug connection:
-

*The stroke force can be doubled to 110.000 lbf by adding one piston stage to
the tool
The increased tool length will be 60 cm

Cut tubing/casing

Welltec Cutter, none explosive

The Welltec Cutter is a tool that enables efficient, safe drill pipe and casing recovery operations
without the need for explosives. It is self-centralizing and removes pipe incrementally so that no
shavings are generated and a smooth, polished surface remains after the cut.

The Welltec Cutter eliminates the need for explosives required by most of the industry
alternatives. Explosives can pose an operational risk, especially when simultaneous operations
are being conducted. Transfer of explosives may also cause additional logistical requirements
and significant operational delays.

Well Stroker
Well Stroker General Description

The Well Stroker is capable of applying Axial force

downhole by the use of a bi-directional hydraulic ram. The

Stroker can be fitted with a Blind Box deployed dowbhole to

tag cement. When cement top is tagged the stroker can be
anchored and a downward force of ~10 Tons can be applied
to the top of the cement plug
