Composite Plug Milling via Wireline

Welltec PA will be at Booth 429 at the Shale Insight conference next week, stop by and check out scale models of our Well Tractor and Well Miller tools. Locally in the Marcellus and Utica operating area Welltec PA has utilized our Well Miller RCB tools to mill out the top slips in solid composite frac plugs at depths from 10,000 ft to 20,000 ft with an 11,000 ft lateral via wireline Well Tractor. The Well Tractor provides 1500-2000 lbs of weight on bit at the plug with no frictional drag losses in the curve and can mill through either ball-drop or solid body style plugs such as the Obsidian, ProDrill Express, RZRFrac and many other composite plugs in as little as 2-5 hrs milling time to release the top slip and get rate around the plug. With a rigup time of 2 hrs we can rigup, RIH, and mill the composite frac plug slips in as little as 6-12 hours on location, faster than many pipe based options can rig up.
