With deep roots in engineering fundamentals, Noetic maintains a large suite of highly customizable numerical models, a state-of-the-art facility for materials mechanical characterization and a flexible experimental services laboratory. We use these tools to characterize the limits of, and support selection and optimization of, pipe-connection systems for a wide range of subsurface oil and gas applications. From conventional applications to the most severe well environments, we support our clients with:

• Mechanical engineering evaluations that ensure candidate tubular configurations, connections and materials align with application demands
• Definition of tubulars design requirements for applications where standardized methods do not provide sufficient confidence
• Product assessments that align the right product with target well application, either using established evaluation protocols or customized evaluation methodologies
• Detailed field evidence reviews to understand the state and capacity of the tubular system for future operations
• Fundamental tubular systems research to close key industry technology gaps

Noetic knows that constructing a well isn’t always as simple as running pipe. Construction practices must ensure casing and completion systems are run efficiently and damage-free. We can help you:

• Define surface and subsurface tubular and connection running limits, which can be especially important for sensitive tubular structures such as production liners and premium connections.
• Simulate, monitor and optimize extended reach running operations by integrating torque-and-drag predictions with serviceability limits before, during and after pipe is run.
• Conduct post-run assessments after challenging runs to validate tubular health and fitness for subsequent service.

When unforeseen events occur, a well-conditioned action plan founded on good interpretation of downhole measurements can make the difference. Noetic’s expertise in pipe deformation mechanics and suite of software tools means we can provide your team with:

• Processing casing integrity log data
• Accessibility assessment and interventions string configuration recommendations
• Interpretation of well deformations that point to root cause
• Failure investigation support
