WISE multifunction coiled tubing technology is founded on proprietary power management technology that enables us to integrate two or more well intervention functions in a single fit-for-purpose platform that significantly reduces the surface equipment and crew size needed to perform coiled tubing well interventions.

The key to our multifunction capability is that our equipment is all hydraulically driven; there are no heavy, bulky, mechanical power trains. Available horsepower from a shared power source is allocated as needed through our proprietary power management system. This allows us to modularize our systems and make those modules interchangeable.

On land, where competitors typically need at least four trucks (one vehicle each for coiled tubing, nitrogen, pumping, and crane), we mobilize a single vehicle with multiple integrated modules driven by the truck engine. The cost savings in transportation, personnel and reduced rig-up and rig-down time are significant.

For marine applications, our modular system occupies about 750 sq ft, less than a third of the deck area required for conventional equipment. Because we can work where competitors cannot, we substantially cut costs for our customers. Our equipment fits in limited space on platform decks, so we can eliminate the need for a liftboat or other work vessel. For caisson wells that have no deck, we fit on smaller, less costly liftboats. Our multifunction technology enables offshore well intervention operations that simply would not be economically feasible with conventional equipment.

Lower mobilization and transportation costs.
With WISE multifunction technology, fewer vehicles are needed to transport equipment to the wellsite (or to the dock for offshore deployment). Savings on diesel fuel are substantial.

Faster execution.
By minimizing the number of high-pressure field connections, we make rig-up and rig-down much easier and faster.

Smaller crews
WISE coiled tubing units typically operate with half the number of people needed for conventional coiled tubing spreads. That results in lower crew costs and risk.

Small, flexible footprint
WISE multifunction coiled tubing units have a very small footprint at the wellsite, enabling us to service even the most space-restricted wells, both onshore and offshore. Our offshore systems fit on the smallest platforms and work vessels.

Lighter weight
Less equipment and streamlined packaging equal less weight. Offshore, our skidded modules meet deck load requirements and are easy to lift and position using available cranes.

Better job control
All intervention operations—coiled tubing, nitrogen, and fluid pumping—are monitored and controlled by one trained specialist at a console in the air-conditioned operator’s cabin. Centralized, single-point control eliminates communications and coordination problems (no yelling above equipment noise, no hand signals, no headset malfunctions) and enables almost instant response to changing well conditions.

Improved safety
Fewer high-pressure field connections and less rig-up and rig-down contribute to safer job conditions, as does the centralized monitoring and control, which minimizes the chance of operational errors.

No more “unreachable” wells
With their combination of compact footprint and light weight, WISE multifunction units can access previously unserviceable wells in any environment, onshore, offshore, and in tidal flats and marshes. New compact WISE site-generated nitrogen units, soon to be integrated into our systems, produce nitrogen from the atmosphere, enabling us to deliver nitrogen intervention services in areas where cryogenic nitrogen is unavailable or is prohibitively expensive.
