During drilling operations, sometimes pieces of metal or broken parts may fall into the wellbore. These are called junk. If left inside, they can stop the drilling process. At such times, we need to use special tools known as fishing tools. Fishing jobs are of two main types: Spear → used for retrieving stuck or […]

High Expansion Bridge Plug (HEX)
A High Expansion Bridge Plug (HEX) is a downhole isolation tool used in oil & gas wells to temporarily or permanently seal a wide range of casing or open-hole diameters. Its main advantage is a high expansion ratio, allowing one plug size to cover multiple IDs. Key Points: Provides zonal isolation and pressure containment Run […]
What is Acidizing
Acidizing is a well stimulation technique in which acid is injected into a wellbore to dissolve formation minerals, remove damage, and enhance permeability, improving the flow of oil and gas. Types of Acidizing Processes Acid is injected at a pressure below the fracture pressure to dissolve formation damage (e.g., drilling mud, scale, or clays). Common […]

CHRISTMAS TREE (WELLHEAD TREE) – THE FINAL BARRIER TO THE RESERVOIR
The Christmas Tree, often called the Wellhead Tree, is installed on top of the wellhead after drilling and completion. It is not just surface equipment—it is a critical pressure-control and production-management system that provides the final interface between the reservoir and surface facilities. Main Functions of the Christmas Tree Pressure Containment & Well ControlThe tree […]
Oil & Gas Extraction
Oil & gas extraction in Indonesia’s mature fields continues to evolve as reservoir pressure declines, water-cut rises, and the downhole environment becomes more chemically aggressive. In these conditions, Sucker Rod Pumping (SRP) remains the most dependable artificial-lift solution due to its simplicity, high mechanical efficiency, and proven performance across a broad range of fluid viscosities.
