Oil & Gas UK Award to Centrica based on the trials of Interwell P&A solution
The winners in each category were presented with their awards at an evening ceremony in Aberdeen on Thursday 3rd November, where over 450 people from across the oil and gas industry gathered to celebrate their company and individual achievements.
Centrica took the Large Enterprise Award by supporting an onshore trial of a radical new technology for well abandonment.
Mike Richardson, Centrica: Interwell’s groundbreaking P&A concept creates an impermeable barrier by melting all the well components, cement and to a certain extent rock formation around them to reinstate the caprock. The recent onshore trial results (Alberta, Canada) demonstrated that this technology could reduce abandonment costs in the North Sea by more than 50 per cent.
