Brief Well Summary:
MPU L-54 is a Schrader Nb producer. It was drilled and the 1st ESP installed June 2018. This was the 1st ESP run
and it became grounded and unbalanced in October 2025 after a 7+ yr run life.
Objectives:
Pull failed ESP completion, run new ESP
Notes Regarding Wellbore Condition:
- 7-5/8 x 9-5/8 annulus test to 1,500 psi on 6/13/2018 at 6,901 MD.
Pre-Rig Procedure (Non Sundried Work)
Slickline
1. RU slickline, pressure test PCE to 250psi low / 2,500psi high.
2. Drift and tag with sample bailer.
3. Attempt to pull dummy valve from GLM at 4,718 MD and leave open.
4. Pull GLV and set dummy valve in upper GLM at 136 MD.
5. Run SBHPS. We will get an updated pressure survey prior to RWO.
6. Caliper from the discharge head to surface.
7. RDMO.
Pumping & Well Support
1. Clear and level pad area in front of well. Spot rig mats and containment.
2. RD well house and flowlines. Clear and level area around well.
3. RU Little Red Services. RU reverse out skid and 500 barrel returns tank.
4. Pressure test lines to 3,000 psi.
5. Circulate at least one wellbore volume with produced water down tubing, taking returns up casing
to 500 barrel returns tank. Bullhead down tbg and IA taking returns to formation as needed to
establish and maintain a full column of produced water brine.
6. Confirm well is dead. Contact operations engineer if freeze protection is needed prior to ASR
arrival.
7. RD Little Red Services and reverse out skid.
8. Set BPV. ND tree. NU BOPE.
Well: MPL-56
PTD: 218-050
API: 50-029-23604-00-00
Brief RWO Procedure (Begin Sundried Work)
1. MIRU Hilcorp ASR #1 WO Rig, ancillary equipment, and lines to 500 barrel returns tank.
2. Check for pressure and if 0 psi set CTS plug. If needed, bleed off any residual pressure off tubing
and casing.
a. If needed, kill well with produced water prior to setting CTS.
3. Test BOPE to 250 psi low/ 2,000 psi high. Test annular to 250 psi low/ 2,000 psi high (hold each
ram/valve and test for 5-min). Record accumulator pre-charge pressures and chart tests.
a. Perform test per ASR 1 BOP Test Procedure
b. Notify AOGCC 24 hours in advance of BOP test.
c. Confirm test pressures per the Sundry conditions of approval.
d. Test VBR rams on 2-7/8 and 3-1/2 test joints.
e. Test rams on 2-3/8 test joint
f. Submit to AOGCC completed 10-424 form within 5 days of BOPE test.
4. Bleed any pressure on casing to the returns tank. Pull CTS plug. Bleed any pressure off tubing to the
returns tank. Kill well with produced water as needed. Pull BPV.
a. If indications show pressure underneath BPV, lubricate out BPV.
5. Call out Centrilift for ESP pull.
6. RU spoolers to handle ESP cable.
7. MU landing joint or spear, BOLDS, PU on the tubing hanger.
a. Tubing hanger is an FMC Gen 5, 11" x 2-7/8" EUE Box top & bottom, 2-1/2" H BPVG
b. 2018 tubing PU weight on Doyon recorded as 175 kip (included 40K Blocks), still seems
abnormally high. Slack off weight recorded as 55 kip with blocks.
c. 2-7/8 L-80 EUE yield is 144 kip.
8. Confirm hanger free, lay down tubing hanger.
9. POOH and lay down the 2-7/8 tubing and dual 3/8 cap strings.
a. Toss the cap string.
b. Re-use tubing based on caliper results. Ask OE for confirmation.
c. Keep ported discharge head and centralizer for future use.
d. Note any sand or scale inside or on the outside of the ESP on the morning report.
e. Recorded Clamp Totals:
i. Canon Clamps = 157
ii. Motor Clamps = 4
iii. Seal Clamps =4
iv. Pump Clamps = 14
10. Lay Down ESP. Collect any solids sample and get them to chemical guys Cole or Mitch for analysis.
Make sure the ESP tech posts all pictures to the Centrilift folder on the Hilcorp drive.
Contingency:If there is fill on the discharge head and we think a cleanout is warranted.
11. MU 2.88 VACS tool BHA with 500 of 2-3/8 snorkel pipe, VACS engine, +-7,200 2-3/8 xo to 3-
1/2 workstring.
12. TIH and clean out to 14,150
Well: MPL-56
PTD: 218-050
API: 50-029-23604-00-00
13. TOOH laying down cleanout BHA
14. Prep to run ESP completion
2-7/8 ESP Completion:
15. RIH with used 2-7/8 6.5# L-80 ESP completion to +/- 4,980 and obtain string weights.
a. Run a cap string 3/8, confirm with Justin Bailey based on clamps.
b. Check electrical continuity every 1000.
c. Note PU and SO weights on tally.
d. Install ESP clamps per Baker, and cross coupling clamps every other joint
