Multi-Test System: Revolutionizing Offshore and Onshore Well Testing
The OTC GreenLight system is the leading solution for testing offshore well control equipment and downhole safety systems used in drilling and completing oil and gas wells. As a technology leader, GreenLight delivers unmatched pressure testing standards while offering maximum efficiency with advanced software capabilities.
Introducing the Multi-Test System
OTC GreenLight has taken its technology to the next level with the Multi-Test System, enabling the ability to conduct four independent tests simultaneously. This U.S. Patent Pending solution revolutionizes completions testing by improving efficiency, minimizing equipment footprint, and reducing the time needed to conduct critical tests.
How It Works
Each test in the Multi-Test System is assigned specific criteria tailored to the components being tested. Despite its multi-functional capabilities, the system is the same size as the standard single-test system, making it easy to transport and operate on-site without disrupting other operations.
The Multi-Test System becomes especially beneficial during the completions stage, where control lines and downhole tools are tested concurrently. Traditionally, testing components one at a time could take hours to complete. With the Multi-Test System, multiple tests can run in parallel, dramatically reducing testing time on-site. For example, four tests that once required four hours can now be executed in just one hour.
Proven Time Savings and Efficiency
The Multi-Test System has proven to be a game-changer in single-zone and dual-zone completions, delivering substantial time savings. By leveraging predictive technology and enabling simultaneous testing, operators have achieved significant efficiency gains, effectively reducing overall project timelines.
- Single-Zone Completion: In a deepwater project, the system paired tests, cutting the time per batch by 50%.
- Dual-Zone Smart Well Completions: The system conducted simultaneous tests in groups of four, three, or two, amplifying time savings and optimizing operational workflows.
Why Choose the Multi-Test System?
- Increased Efficiency: Conduct up to four tests at the same time.
- Smaller Footprint: Compact and easy to transport, reducing on-site equipment clutter.
- Cost Savings: Save time and reduce operational costs with faster testing processes.
- Reliable Technology: Backed by GreenLight’s advanced predictive capabilities, ensuring accurate and safe testing.
Multi-Test Capabilities Increases Efficiency
Recently, OTC GreenLight has expanded its capabilities even further. President Eric Livesay, Ph.D., explained, “Using GreenLight, OTC has developed a multi-test system, which introduces the ability to conduct four independent tests simultaneously. The multi-test system is a U.S. Patent Pending (63/071,23) proven solution that makes completions testing more efficient, while minimizing the footprint of testing equipment and hardware.”
