Installation of composite tubular for Thisted Varmeforsyning
Project Description
On behalf of Akiet and Huisman Well Technology, WEP was involved in the development of void-free composite tubular and installation equipment, testing, and installation in the geothermal injection well Thisted-5 of Thisted Varmeforsyning. In five days, during daytime operation, the tailor-made slender glued connections were bond together (without any reject) successfully until Top of Liner and spaced out on Polished Bore Receptacle. The benefit of the Akiet composite casing in this application is to prevent corrosion and scaling which results in low friction and pressure loss to minimize operational costs as much as possible.
