In many cases, mature fields require a higher than normal

emphasis on Health, Safety and Environment (HSE)
considerations due to increasing hydrogen sulfide and
carbon dioxide concentration levels during water flood
operations. Halliburton prides itself on continuous HSE
improvement and world-class service quality.

An operator in Ecuador was working in a heavy oil field that often produces more
than 90% water during the first few weeks. To help the operator produce more oil,
Halliburton recommended using EquiFlow AICDs as an effective and reliable way to
delay water breakthrough. In the first 300 days, water production went down 34%.
During that same time frame, the EquiFlow AICDs increased oil recovery by 16%
and helped the operator recover approximately 21,000 barrels of oil.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Wellbore Cleaning Technology

Improving Efficiency, Reliability and Completion Time

Efficient Wellbore Cleanup and Displacement

Improving Fishing Runs

To help operators ensure that the wellbore is clean and free

of obstructions and debris, Halliburton offers the innovative
CleanWell system with advanced well cleaning technologies.
These technologies can help reduce mechanical risk, save rig time
and improve wellsite efficiencies.

CleanWell tools can help operators dramatically improve

performance and efficiency during the critical wellbore cleanup
and displacement phase of well construction.

Many CleanWell tools are ideal for fishing applications,

when efficient removal of debris is needed before operations
can continue. The Vac Tech system can efficiently retrieve larger
debris than would be possible with reverse circulation alone.
Additionally, Mag Tech magnets and Vali Tech junk baskets can
be run alongside conventional fishing tools to increase the chance
of recovery.

With high torsion and tension limits, many CleanWell tools can
be run as a rotary bottomhole assembly, eliminating the need
for a motor when drilling out cement. Advanced tools such as the
Inflow Tech test packer, Bristle Tech brush and Vali Tech filter
are designed to work quickly and efficiently to reduce rig time
and expensive dedicated runs.

Casing Cleaning Tools

Bristle Tech brushes and Drill Tech scraper tools are designed
to mechanically remove solid materials from the inner casing
wall. This restores the wells flowing capacity and helps polish the
casing, ensuring a tight, secure seal during future operations.

Single-Trip Solutions for Drilling

Riser Cleaning Tools
Halliburton riser cleaning tools remove solids and debris from the
riser while protecting it from damage during operations. These
tools include innovative technologies such as the Mag Tech riser
magnet and Vor Tech junk basket which can remove large debris
that is too dense to be circulated out of the well.

Jetting and Bypass Tools

CleanWell tools use simple activation sequences to eliminate
complex and unnecessary procedures. The Jet Sub and Jet Tech
systems feature phased and nozzled ports to efficiently flush the
blowout preventer and wellhead. Additionally, the Turbo Tech
bypass valve uses a multi-activation design to allow optimal
circulating rates.

Drilling applications are common in preparation for plug and

abandonment, window mill cutting runs, and pre-liner running
cleanout trips. CleanWell tools can help operators get the
wellbore ready for production quickly.

Bristle Tech brushes feature spring-loaded inserts that maintain consistent pressure
against the casing.

Specialty Tools

During plug and abandonment operations or to prepare for liner

hangers, the Drill Tech scraper can remove debris from the
wellbore for a reliable packer or liner hanger seal. Additionally,
PowerMag and Mag Tech magnet tools are designed to retrieve
ferrous debris during drilling and milling runs so operators will
not need to make a dedicated trip downhole.

Specialty Mills

Debris extraction tools remove particles and debris that werent

circulated out of the well. Innovative systems include the
PowerMag magnet and Vac Tech downhole eductor system to
remove large debris and the Vali Tech filter tool to collect solid
contaminates in vertical wellbores.

The CleanWell integral stabilized bladed mill delivers a casingfriendly design to help with debris removal and drift restoration.
The mill uses four or five blades for aggressive milling and
drillout performance. The spiral wrap string mill features
360-degree coverage to restore casing drift and reduce debris size.

Single-Trip
Operations

20

CleanWell tools are frequently used to help ensure reliable well

operation and reduce the risk of damage to other equipment after
perforating the well. The Drill Tech deburring tool allows packers
and other relatively fragile completion equipment to be safely run
through perforation zones.
To help operators save time and money, the Vac Tech system is
run with other plug retrieval tools to create a single-trip solution
to remove debris and retrieve packers simultaneously.

Because every well faces unique challenges, Halliburton offers

CleanWell specialty tools that provide innovative solutions to
many complex operations.

Debris Extraction Tools

Designed for

Post-Perforation Debris and Packer Removal

The Halliburton CleanWell system is built to enable single-trip

operations. By combining multiple tools on a single sting, operators
can accomplish several well cleaning operations simultaneously
and eliminate the need for multiple trips downhole.

SUCCESS STORY

DAYS

$1.5 MILLION

CleanWell Technology Saves

$1.5 Million in Gulf of Mexico
An operator in the Gulf of Mexico wanted to reduce the
number of trips needed to clean out a well. Halliburton
used Vor Tech, Vali Tech, Mag Tech and Vac Tech
systems to recover more than 280 pounds of debris at
least four times more than conventional well cleaning
systems. The CleanWell system also helped save two
days of rig time worth approximately $1.5 million USD.
