what is light well intervention?
This includes repair, scale removal, installation and manipulation of mechanical devices (valves, plugs, screens etc.), perforations and re-perforations, zone isolation, fluid sampling, PLT, chemical treatment, well abandonment etc. Light Well Intervention technology reduces the intervention cost to roughly 1/3, enabling more intervention work and resulting in better exploitation of subsea wells. The long term objective is to increase the oil recovery on subsea wells from an average of 45% to 55%.
