METAL MUNCHER AMT performed 17 casing cuts in one run Challenges ? Customer required efficient cut and pull operations due to well control conditions not permitting milling - Make 24 cuts with no miss runs - Pull 24 casing sections with no miss runs Results ? Cut 13 3/8-in. casing 17 times in a single trip ? Performed average cut time of 12 minutes ? Showed minimal wear on AMT knives An operator was performing a plug and abandonment operation on one of their wells in the North Sea. The well conditions did not allow for the casing to be milled out due to the high equivalent circulating density (ECD), so they reached out to Baker Hughes, a GE company (BHGE), for a solution to efficiently cut and pull 1,143.6 ft (348.57 m) of 13 3 /8-in., 72 lb/ft.
