How to isolate a zone that is depleted or producing unwanted gas or fluids

Challenge

Whether it be gas or water migration into the wellbore, with the Saltel Patch being V0 design and V3 qualified, a seal is assured in these environments. For regulation purposes, any zones that are isolated with Saltel Patch are considered to be suspended and not abandoned. As with all Saltel patches, minimal loss of ID is achieved while ensuring an effective seal in a non-uniform casing.

Solution

Saltel Expandable Steel Patch provides wellbore integrity in wells that have been perforated off depth or to isolate a zone that is depleted or producing unwanted gas or fluids. This patch is considered a `Life of the Well Solution,` and shutting off unwanted production is one of the critical features of the Saltel casing patch.
