Claim 10:
11. A system for monitoring an annulus pressure of a well, the system comprising:
a collecting tool that:
performs periodic surveys to monitor an annulus pressure of the well,
determines the annulus pressure of the well over a period of time,
broadcasts information relating to the periodic surveys; and
determines the annulus pressure over another period of time; and

a processor that:
obtains the information relating the periodic surveys,
compares the annulus pressure to a Maximum Allowable Wellhead Operating Pressure (MAWOP),
generates a decision on whether the well is a workover candidate well based on the results of the comparison,
identifies that the annulus pressure is less than 100 psi,
generates the decision indicating that the well is not a workover candidate well, and
stores information indicating that the annulus pressure is not the workover candidate well over the period of time.
