Production Improvement with Electrical Workover Systems

Considerable savings may often be realized in optimizing production of power wells through the use of electrical workover system. Electrical workover systems group together several old and new electrical wireline through-tubing tools into a coordinated workover package, whereas conventional workover techniques are costly, requiring large rigs capable of pulling tubing and drilling. Electrical workover systems present a three-way capability for working over many wells without the danger and expense of pulling tubing and killing the well. Several workover examples are presented in this paper.
