Process Control System

A process control system that automatically makes calls to plant operators lies at
the heart of a major oil facility expansion in California

Central to the project was the installation of six new tanks, of which the largest is used to store produced water before its reinjection into the reservoir. InterAct managed all this work, beginning with a detailed review of the tank designs and ending with the final inspection process. The company’s engineers also took care of the piping system that links the new tanks. Extensive use was made of 3D modelling during the design phase to optimise the layout.   read more >>

Oil & Gas UK Helps Mobilize Well Abandonment Technologies

InterAct's UK New Study

In a report published in March 2009, Oil & Gas UK highlights the £15 billion ($25 billion) market for services needed to abandon nearly 5,000 platform and subsea wells on the UK continental shelf (UKCS). The report, which was prepared by the Acteon company InterAct Activity Management Ltd (InterAct) with the help of Oil & Gas UK's well abandonment workgroup, also identified that existing technology will allow the abandonment of only two thirds of wells without the use of a rig. The rigless abandonment of the remaining one third will be reliant on the development of new technologies.  read more >>

Slot Recovery and Field Optimization

InterAct, Claxton, and CIS Deliver Comprehensive Service

As reservoirs are depleted, production from specific wells may no longer be financially viable. Operators can cost-effectively drill new, more productive wells and extend platform and field life by reclaiming slots from underperforming wells. By combining their strengths, InterAct, Claxton, and CIS (Acteon group companies and recognized leaders in their fields) have established a strong track record in managing and executing the different phases of the slot-recovery process – from field redevelopment, the planning of abandonments and P&A, through to new slot delivery and installing the conductors.
