Workover & Plug and Abandonment (P&A) Services

Workover & Plug and Abandonment (P&A) Services

At IPT Well Solutions, we approach workover and plug & abandonment (P&A) operations with the same level of engineering precision and operational expertise that defines our entire service offering. Whether optimizing well performance through workovers or ensuring safe, regulatory-compliant well abandonment, our team delivers solutions that maximize efficiency while minimizing costs and risks.

Workover: Optimizing Well Productivity

Workovers are a critical part of well lifecycle management. Whether the objective is restoring production, completing a recompletion, or addressing integrity concerns, IPT provides engineering-driven workover strategies that deliver measurable results. Our team evaluates well history, formation characteristics, best stimulation for formation and operational constraints to develop customized plans that enhance well performance while controlling costs.

Our workover expertise includes:

  • Completion modifications – Optimizing completions to extend well life and improve recovery.
  • Tubing and casing repairs – Addressing mechanical integrity challenges with fit-for-purpose solutions.
  • Artificial lift optimization – Enhancing lift systems to improve production efficiency.
  • Zonal isolation and stimulation – Targeting specific intervals to increase productivity.

Plug & Abandonment: Safe, Efficient, and Compliant Solutions

P&A operations demand precision, compliance, and cost control. Improperly abandoned wells pose long-term environmental and financial liabilities, which is why we take a risk-based approach to well abandonment. Our team integrates regulatory compliance, cementing expertise, and well integrity best practices to ensure that every well is properly isolated, eliminating future risks while optimizing cost efficiency.

Our P&A services include:

  • Regulatory compliance and permitting – Ensuring full adherence to local, state, and federal requirements. Submit after plugging reports to state and federal regulatory agency.
  • Custom abandonment design – Engineering P&A procedures tailored to well conditions and operational goals. All plugging services bid out with several services companies.
  • Section milling and cement plug placement – Ensuring long-term wellbore isolation.
  • Risk assessment and liability reduction – Identifying potential failure points to prevent future issues.
  • Experienced well-site supervisors that prepare detailed daily operational and cost reports.


Engineering-Driven Approach to Workover and P&A

At IPT Well Solutions, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every well presents unique challenges, and our engineers develop data-backed, cost-effective strategies that align with your operational and financial objectives. From extending the productive life of a well to executing permanent abandonment, we deliver solutions that mitigate risk, control costs, and exceed regulatory standards.

If you need a partner who understands the engineering behind well interventions and abandonments, IPT Well Solutions is ready to support your operation. Let’s ensure your wells are optimized, secure, and compliant—no shortcuts, just smart, effective solutions.

SPEAK WITH AN EXPERT
Their mindset mirrored ours as an operator: Cost conscious, vendor intelligence, oversight, relevant and up to speed.
Adam Gollofon, Massif Oil
“They've made a huge difference for us. I work with people of significant capability that I know. I can count on IPT’s people, and working with them limits the amount of overhead expense when there isn't much work.”
Roger Parker, Petro Operating
“IPT has a group of folks that really know their stuff. From wellsite supervision to stimulation specialist, they’ve always had us covered. As an operator we sleep better at night with one of their stim specialists on location knowing they’ll keep the service provider on scope and can provide guidance when things get off track.”
Tanner Butler, White Rock
“IPT provides some of the best frac supervision available and with that supervision has come invaluable recommendations that have continued to optimize our frac designs.”
R. Holt, CPX Energy
“We use IPT on horizontal completions – dedicated people making sure the job goes as we designed it. They keep us on schedule and communicate if something looks off. IPT’s biggest value add is data collection and reporting. They take a lot of data and very quickly put it into a format that’s easy to digest. IPT does more for the same money as other consultants, which frees us up to focus our attention elsewhere.”
Andrew Blaine, Blackbeard Operating
“I’ve been using IPT since 1997. Having you guys on location takes the QC burden off of me. I can depend on IPT to oversee engineering, materials, and the frac company. What makes IPT different is consistency. Your engineers have individual personalities, but I can count on the same basic approach. You know what you're getting.”
Kevin Duncan, U.S. Energy Development Corporation
“IPT has been an integral part of our completions team throughout the history of our company, making sure the field execution meets our stimulation objectives, and providing engineering guidance for both completions and drilling. We have also relied on IPT for an increasing range of consulting services. Having trusted advisors like IPT is critical to the success of our projects.”
Pat Laursen, Forge Energy Operating
“What I’d tell another company that hasn’t used IPT is they have consistency among their employees, integrity, and a lot of frac knowledge. They keep a database, so they can quickly pull up how any of our wells were treated. I’ve been lucky they have always been available when I need them. IPT adds much more value than what the cost is.”
James Allbee, Cheyenne Petroleum
“What I really like about the IPT personnel is their ability to work with and in the complex completion software — while at the same time teaming up with the frac company on location to provide assistance to any specific area of need which assures successful stage executions. Put more simply, they can run FracPro or run hoses, and everything in between.”
Paul Fagin, Valence Operating Company Engineering
