Coiled Tubing Operations in Well Intervention

Coiled Tubing Operations is a key service within well intervention.

Coiled Tubing is one of the most versatile well intervention techniques in the oil and gas industry. It allows operations such as “well cleaning”, “stimulation”, and “fluid or nitrogen pumping” to be performed efficiently while the well remains under pressure, without the need for jointed pipes.

Nitrogen (N₂) pumping ” kick off “, where nitrogen is injected into the well to reduce hydrostatic pressure, unload fluids, and help initiate or restore production. This method is highly effective due to nitrogen’s inert nature, ensuring safe and controlled operations while minimizing formation damage.

The main equipment involved, including:

  • Coiled Tubing Unit (CTU)
  • Injector Head
  • Pressure Control Equipment (PCE)
  • Nitrogen Pumping Unit
  • Control Cabin and Circulation System
