Petromac Proven in Carbon Capture

A logging operator encountered issues with sampling/mini-frac strings getting stuck on point. Since the data was required by the EPA for project approval, the client was willing to try the Petromac solution. The result was two successful logging jobs in the same formation without the need for fishing. With an ultra-low friction coefficient of 0.03, MDT taxis enable the tool to “roll” off point rather than “drag” off point. This can be likened to pulling a loaded trailer with no wheels on the dirt, as opposed to pulling a loaded trailer with wheels, and can result in a reduction of thousands of pounds of tension. Moreover, if the toolstring is run with Jars, the taxis can help decrease the force required to free the toolstring. This translates into less damage and a lower chance of having to fish. Reduced tool drag also means lower cable tension, decreasing the likelihood of cable key seating. In Carbon Capture, formations are generally unknown, and drilling is not refined. The Petromac system serves as an excellent insurance policy for most wells and has been proven around the world in the most challenging conditions. Now, Carbon Capture
