Subsea Well Access RWIS

The Riserless Well Intervention System (RWIS) provides a cost-effective solution for intervention and abandonment of subsea wells from a dynamically positioned vessel. The modular RWIS can be tailored for specific jobs and features a unique cut and seal valve design requiring less fluid than conventional systems. Deployed without a riser, the lighter RWIS allows access to aging subsea trees not suitable for heavier intervention equipment.

Subsea Well Access

Riserless Well Intervention System (RWIS)

Deployed from a dynamically positioned monohull vessel,


RWIS provides a reliable solution for carrying out cost-effective
intervention and abandonment operations on all types of subsea
wells.

The RWIS is modular in design, allowing the system to be tailored


to specific job requirements. A range of equipment options are
available including a well re-entry module where production barriers
can be placed in the event of tree valve failures or a bore selector to
eliminate the cost associated with multiple runs to enable access to
the annulus bore.

It features a unique, field-proven cut and seal valve design with a


shear seal gate valve included to cut and seal against tool strings and
sinker bars. This requires significantly less control fluid to operate
than conventional systems, resulting in fewer subsea accumulators
which reduces the overall weight significantly.

An electro-hydraulic control system for medium to deepwater


applications, based on Expro’s award winning landing string control
systems philosophy, is included to provide a high level of reliability
and integrity.

A separate subsea service module (SSM) containing accumulators, a


grease system and control modules is connected to the main RWIS
by ROV deployed flying leads, further reducing the overall stack
weight.

Features

• 7 3/8” bore and 10,000 psi maximum working pressure rated


system
• Provides access to conventional or horizontal xmas trees
• Can be used in water depths up to 2,000m (depth limited by
umbilical length only)
• Well access for the deployment of wireline or slickline tool strings
up to 22m
• Bore selector option for slickline access to 2” annulus on vertical
xmas trees
• Shear seal gate valve cuts up to 2” sinker bar and tool strings
• Modular lubricator riser to support up to 22m long wireline tool
strings

Benefits

• Lighter than conventional Light Well intervention (LWI) stacks,


• Allows access to aging subsea trees that may not support
conventional, heavier intervention equipment
• Can be used for temporary suspension or abandonment of wells
• Modular design offers greater operational flexibility
• Allowing wireline well maintenance to increase well recovery rates
