Global experience in abandonment operations

Well sealing regulations differ across countries, and abandonment can be either temporary or permanent. Whether you intend to reopen the well for further extraction or it has reached the end of its lifecycle, it must be securely plugged to meet all legal and regulatory requirements. With extensive global experience in exploration, drilling, completion, production, and abandonment, Halliburton provides expert recommendations for any type of well abandonment in any environment.

We effectively tackle well abandonment challenges on land, platforms, and subsea wells. Our solutions help reduce costs, optimize operations, and meet all regulatory and technical requirements. We securely seal unused wells, protect natural resources, sequester pollutants, and eliminate safety hazards in mature fields.

Plug and abandonment regulatory knowledge

With years of experience and a global footprint, Halliburton is well-versed in regulations relating to abandonment procedures. We ensure the proper execution of P&A projects to satisfy local and national regulators. Our extensive knowledge extends to permitting, and we offer reliable monitoring solutions to prevent and mitigate potential fluid migration.
