Hanger Leaks: Critical for Effective Intervention and Repair

Accurate hanger leak point identification is crucial for effective intervention and repair. ScanWell’s advanced, tailored diagnostic methods—such as real-time monitoring, acoustic sensors, surface-based diagnostics, and fluid sampling—ensure reliable and precise leak detection. With fully documented and traceable results, ScanWell empowers clients to take swift, informed action, reducing downtime and improving the chances of successful remediation.

ScanWell’s Tailored Leak Detection Methods for Hanger Leaks

ScanWell employs a customized, comprehensive approach to hanger leak detection using a variety of advanced diagnostic tools and methods. These tools are specifically chosen based on the nature of the leak, ensuring efficient and accurate results. The primary techniques for detecting hanger leaks include:

• Real-Time Monitoring Systems: ScanWell continuously monitors pressures, flow rates, and fluid compositions. This data helps pinpoint potential leak points, enabling quick intervention before the issue escalates.
• Direct Leak Tracing: ScanWell proprietary direct leak tracing method allows to trace the leak without intervention uncovering the leak path and depth.
• Surface-Based Diagnostics: ScanWell’s surface sensors detect pressure fluctuations and compositional imbalances, providing information on hanger leaks without intervention.
• Fluid Sampling and Analysis: Fluid samples can be collected and analyzed to understand the chemical composition and origin of the leak. This analysis helps determine the leak’s depth and type, allowing for a targeted approach to repair.

By combining these methods, ScanWell ensures that potential hanger leak points are accurately detected, providing operators with a detailed and comprehensive overview of the issue.

Leak Depth and Path Determination for Hanger Leaks

• Leak Depth: ScanWell’s systems provide precise measurements of the leak’s depth within the wellbore or hanger system. This accurate data ensures that repairs are properly planned and executed.
• Leak Path: By injecting tracer substance, ScanWell can map the leak’s path, providing valuable insights into its potential to escalate.

With precise depth and path data, ScanWell helps operators make informed decisions, ensuring that repairs are planned efficiently and the appropriate tools and materials are used.

Fully Documented, Traceable Results

ScanWell’s leak detection process provides highly reliable and documented data that is fully traceable. This includes:

• Accurate and Reliable Data: The measurements and results from ScanWell’s diagnostics are precise, ensuring that the leak source and extent are thoroughly understood.
• Traceable Data: All data is documented, traceable to the specific instruments and methods used, ensuring compliance with regulations and providing transparency.
• Comprehensive Reports: ScanWell generates detailed reports that include the leak’s location, depth, path, and the fluid composition involved. This allows clients to plan repairs more effectively and provides a valuable resource for future inspections.

Benefits of ScanWell’s Interventionless Leak Point Identification

• Time and Cost Efficiency: ScanWell’s targeted diagnostics reduce the need for extensive diagnostic efforts and minimize unnecessary interventions, saving both time and costs.
• Higher Remediation Success: Accurate identification of the leak’s depth and path increases the likelihood of successful repairs and long-term solutions.
• Enhanced Safety: Properly identifying hanger leaks reduces the chance of undetected or worsening leaks, enhancing the safety of personnel and the environment.
• Data-Driven Insights: ScanWell’s documented, traceable results empower operators to optimize maintenance schedules, reducing the risk of future issues.
