RCX reduced risks while obtaining fluid samples in North Sea HP/HT well Challenges • Operational time was limited for obtaining the required samples • Harsh HP/HT environment existed with 17,200 psi hydrostatic and borehole temperature of 388 ° F Results • Performed reliable HP/HT formation testing • Data obtained within the required timeline • Successful single-phase samples taken at 388 ° F without issue • Collaborative remote approach with DRM reduced risk for both the job and equipment A major operator in the North Sea needed to obtain pressure data and samples from a high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) well. This would be their first attempt at taking a single-phase sample at a projected temperature above the standard rating of 3
