Well Integrity
Understanding integrity issues

We take well integrity seriously. Ensuring the barrier envelopes that have been put in place during well construction, operation, well intervention, and abandonment are durable and fit for purpose is one of the top priorities in the oil and gas industry.
Our team has participated in the diagnosis and repair of thousands of well integrity issues, have written numerous management systems for well integrity in E&P companies and participated in joint industry projects on assessing the integrity of historical abandoned wells.
Other projects: Well Intervention
From top to bottom
We have worked at every level in the well integrity process. From diagnosing wellhead pressures and samples, to writing entire management systems to developing regulatory guidelines, we know well integrity from top to bottom.
Our well integrity management systems are used onshore and offshore by oil and gas companies across three continents. We use local regulations, international standards and company practces to build management systems that actually work. We also provide online training tools to ensure your people stay sharp.
Our expertise extends beyond just writing about well integrity, we are currently active in diagnosing, troubleshooting, and confirming possible failures and repair alternatives. We stay involved in well integrity throguhout the entire life cycle of a well, even in the post-abandonment monitoring (which we have assisted regulators in Europe developing a framework).
Proven practices
When a well integrity issue is diagnosed and has to be remediated, we specialize in the lanning and execution of this type of activitiy. Even if the solution seems simple, the operator is intervening in a well which has at least one compromised barrier, so it pays to use our experience in this high risk potential activity.
"well integrity is one of the biggest contributors to profitability"
Whether it is preparing for well integrity in the well construction phase, working with operations to confirm integrity issues, remediating issues with the latest technology and proven practices, or performing long term surveys and data management of decommissioned assets, well integrity is one of the biggest contributors to the profitability of an oil and gas business.
Ballycatter Engineering is here to ensure pragmatic solutions are applied to well integrity issues to ensure positive outcomes for all stakeholders.
