EG-PDT-COIL - Research and development of an intelligent power and data transmission coiled tubing for the exploration of hydrocarbons.

From 01-03-2003 to 31-08-2005

Description

The larger hydrocarbon reservoirs in Europe are rapidly depleting. The remaining marginal fields can only be exploited commercially by the implementation of new “intelligent” technology. The PDT-coil project aims to develop an intelligent and high-temperature, corrosion & fatigue resistant thermoplastic composite coiled tubing for the efficient and cost-effective exploration of hydrocarbons. Embedded electrical power conductors enable the control of a remote electric drilling motor. A Fiber optic sensing system is implemented to monitor the operation and structural integrity of the coil during exploration. A prototype is built and the tube is field-tested.
