Abstract

ABSTRACT In recent years, horizontal operations involving drilling and well completion techniques in the oil and gas industry have increased considerably, and the main reasons for this are economic feasibility and good production results. Focusing primarily on the drilling and completion techniques, very little attention has been placed on the workover aspects; therefore, this paper has been written in an attempt to describe the workover experience gained from well TJ-1095, drilled in Lake Maracaibo by Lagoven, S.A., a subsidiary of Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA).
