Coiled tubing operations are upstream petroleum industry operations using specialized equipment to carry out workovers and drilling on oil and gas wells. Coiled tubing applications fit into two general categories: fluid conveyance applications (pumping) such as fracturing/acidizing a formation, removing sand, scale or wax and mechanical applications such as cutting tubulars or setting a plug or packer.
The IRP includes information about coiled tubing operations including recommendations for:
- Operations planning
- Well Control Equipment
- Accumulator Equipment
- Coiled tubing specifications
- Fluids and circulating systems
- QA for Well pressure control equipment
- Elastomeric seals
- Well servicing operations
