Plug and Abandonment (P&A)

Permanent sealing, temporary flexibility

Rig

P&A ADVANTAGES WITH QUARTZPACK

PLAN WITH CONFIDENCE

No complex chemistry or temperature windows to worry about. QuartzPack works in any condition - from shallow wells to HPHT. One solution, every scenario.

EXECUTE FAST

Pump and go. No waiting 24+ hours for cure time. Complete your P&A operation in hours, not days. Save expensive rig time immediately.

VERIFY INSTANTLY

Pressure test your barrier right away. No guessing if your plug will hold - know immediately your well is secure.

KEEP YOUR OPTIONS OPEN

Temporary abandonment? Easily pump out QuartzPack when ready to reenter. No costly milling operations or side-tracking risks.

TRUST FOREVER

ermanent barriers that actually stay sealed. Self-healing technology adapts to wellbore changes for centuries. No degradation, no micro-annulus, no future headaches.
