GOWell Technology Participates in Evaluating Next Generation Well Integrity Technologies
GOWell Technology announced its participation in a collaborative effort to evaluate next generation well integrity technologies. The evaluation was performed as part of an industry benchmarking program led by an independent Net Zero organization at the NORCE testing facility in Stavanger, Norway. This initiative assessed cutting-edge methods designed to address the industry's most urgent operational and sustainability challenges in well integrity evaluation. As global decommissioning activities accelerate, operators face a growing need to evaluate cement and casing integrity without removing concentric tubulars. Eliminating unnecessary tubular removal can significantly reduce time, cost, and associated carbon emissions, but acquiring the required data through multiple tubular layers remains a technical challenge. The initiative was established to assess emerging solutions under controlled and repeatable conditions. With support from a major international oil company, GOWell introduced a fundamentally new approach to tubular cement evaluation by using its Selective Non-Harmonic Resonance technique. This method is intended to avoid common technical pitfalls encountered by competing solutions and GOWell believes it will deliver significantly improved sensitivity to the cement target. GOWell also deployed its dual-tubular azimuthal evaluation technology, enabling an integrated well integrity solution capable of assessing both metal tubulars and encompassing cement sheaths. Over a four-week period, each company participating in the program deployed its technology multiple times under defined benchmark conditions to enable full performance characterization.
