PB performs approximately 80 well workovers or MIT’s each year.
Mechanical Integrity Testing
Today’s more stringent regulations include testing requirements to certify that subsurface storage wells and caverns are safe and tight. PB Energy Storage Services performs government-approved testing procedures to verify that an underground storage cavern has the integrity to safely store gas or liquid hydrocarbons, compressed air or other fluids.
Well Completion and Workovers
PB Energy Storage Services provides drilling services for storage and disposal wells. Well services range from feasibility studies and conceptual design and cost estimating to final design, procurement and supervision of drilling, completions and workovers.
One typical project included the design, procurement of equipment and services and drilling of a re-entry well into a Southeastern Texas LPG storage cavern in order to increase receipt and delivery rates. A Mississippi project involved cementing of liners into three LPG storage wells and converting the wells to natural gas service. Still another job called for re-completing a Texas brine disposal well after a damaged casing was repaired. The well was deepened and successfully re-completed to handle rates in excess of design.
