When the oil and gas extraction in a well is over or ended by wellbore issues, a Plugging and Abandoning (P&A) operation is required. The usual method is the well cementation. A recent process is the rock fusion method through a thermite reaction for wellbore buffering operation. This paper...
Plugging and abandonment (P&A) operations are performed in relation to the wells, which are based on positioning devices which have properties capable of withstanding the rigors and subsurface requirements, and can establish a durable insulation between the formations to carry fluids under pressure and...
