Redefining workovers
- the rigless way

An estimated 20-30% of the world’s wells are shut-in with integrity issues and many are operating with dispensation. Operators, unable to bring these wells back on line or up to full production without a rig, struggled to meet their production quotas. Until now.

Brinker rigless thru-wellhead workover services are redefining the way that operators approach well integrity issues and workovers. Our innovative Platelet® barrier technology - applied through the wellhead - eliminates the delay, costs, risks and logistical issues associated with a rig workover. Platelets® can restore full production capacity in a matter of hours, by finding and fixing leaks from the wellhead down.

Brinker provides a proven solution that has numerous applications including:

Well integrity: Brinker can find and fix casing, tubular and connection leaks to restore well integrity and full production in hours - anywhere, anytime, independent of weather windows and other workover resources and infrastructure

Field maintenance: by removing dependency on workover rig availability, it is possible to undertake whole-field maintenance programmes. Now you can restore multiple wells to full production in just days, and, for the first time, a managed field integrity programme, bringing hundreds of wells back on line in literally weeks, is achievable.

Wellhead leaks: integrity can be restored to critical valve and clamp assemblies within the wellhead without interrupting production.

Specialised engineered solutions: within subsea developments, Brinker has found and fixed leaks in umbilicals, pipelines and risers, with the Platelets® travelling many kilometres from injection point to the leak. Brinker has also remedied corrosion and other integrity problems in ageing infrastructure and storage systems.
