Formed in 2015, WellGear proved to be leader in well intervention and decommissioning services by using the most innovative inhouse designed equipment. With locations all over the world, we are a global player known for its high quality service, and best safety standards.
Oil and gas
Since 2015 we have been a leading innovator in the oil and gas sector. Our pioneering HWO unit design has already increased efficiencies for over 700 client operations worldwide. And the innovation doesn’t stop there. We are the first in the world to design the first all-electric HWO unit –supporting our client’s sustainability goals with reduced on-site CO2 and noise emissions.
Decommissioning
When a well reaches the end of its life it must be plugged and abandoned (P&A)
Decommissioning a well is often more challenging than constructing one. Heavy pulling, big bore tubular handling and significant pump capacity can see P&A jobs costing the same as the original drilling operation- especially when combined with the cost of reviving old platform drilling facilities.
Snubbing: Intervention operations while keeping the well alive. Killing the well to perform an intervention usually means pumping heavy fluid or mud. This can increase the risks of reservoir formation damage and result in costly stimulations or decreased well performance. Snubbing is one of the most capable, safe and efficient tools for the removal or installation of tubular from a live, fully pressurized well. Our custom-built Snubbing Unit technology allows well intervention to happen live – with minimal risk to production levels.
WellGear is created to innovate. Our engineers are always looking for a better way to solve problems, add value and increase efficiency. We are relentless in our mission to always improve equipment and operations. Through pioneering equipment design and set-up, our engineering expertise solves the most challenging operational problems.
Making energy production more sustainable is inherent to WellGear’s business model. Moreover, reducing emissions and providing our services in the most efficient manner with minimal impact on the environment is a priority for WellGear. Good examples are the use of electric powerpacks, and we recently even introduced an all-electric HWO unit. More innovations will follow, as we support our client’s energy transition objectives.
