Abstract
Summary Novel well completion techniques and exceptional field execution (per Dodson Completion Performance Database) allowed the six well completions on the Anadarko operated Marco Polo Deepwater Tension Leg Platform (TLP) project in Green Canyon (GC) block 608 to be accomplished significantly ahead of schedule. All six wells (17 frac packs) were placed on production in approximately 168 days (including 14 days lost because of storms) after riser tieback operations were complete. An operational efficiency of 85%, with weather downtime accounting for 9% and other lost time accounting for 6%, was obtained during the completion campaign. This paper will focus on how the implementation challenges of completing 17 zones in six deepwater dry-tree wells with a 1,000hp rig were met, and will highlight a number of concepts and "technical firsts" that can be applied to other deepwater-development projects.
