eelReel®: The Solution to Plugged Flowlines & Pipelines

---

State-of-the-Art Blockage Remediation

The eelReel tool is an extended reach solution to clean plugged flowlines and pipelines. With an established track record of resolving a multitude of blockages including hydrates, scale, paraffin, and asphaltenes, the eelReel Tool is the state-of-the-art solution for pre-job stimulation, production enhancement, and flowline abandonment as well as stuck pig retrieval.

This is a state-of-the-art tool that has an extended reach, traverses 5D bends, and is deepwater-certified with patented technology delivering the highest success rate in plug remediation.

Advantages of the eelReel®

Projects are custom designed and engineered for flowline specific parameters, but eelReel®’s most notable advantages are:

• Reestablish and increase production

• Facilitate flowline abandonment

• Reaches inaccessible areas

• Cleans flowlines to their full ID

• Can extend to distances greater than 23,000 feet in a single pass

• Engineered to extend to distances of 50,000 feet in certain ID’s

• Retrieves stuck pigs

• Traverses multiple radii, a minimum 5D bend

• Surpasses lancing and CT wash out tool reach

• More versatile point of entry than any similar technologies

• Improved cup designs and speed of entry

Applications

• Platform to Platform or Subsea Entry

How the eelReel® Works

The eelReel is attached to coil tubing and loaded into the flowline through an injector head, positioned above the tree.

Power fluid pushes the eelReel down the line and enters tool through the screen. Power fluid can be produced oil, diesel, chemical or water.

High pressure jets dispense power fluid. Debris enters through the tip and is extracted to the surface through the coiled tubing. The reverse screen subs on the front of the tip prevent debris from plugging coiled tubing.

Debris can be paraffin, asphaltenes, scale and sand. The eelReel jets are able to clean the flowline to the original pipe ID. The coiled tubing transfers debris to the surface fluid handling system for handling.

For pig retrieval, the same process is used as a clean flowline accelerates stuck pig retrieval. Once the eelReel reaches the pig, reverse flow pushes the eelReel out of the flowline.

Then, equipped with a spear, the eelReel removes the stuck pig.

Pig is safely carried back to the surface.
