Abstract
Cement sheath quality assessment is a critical initial step in plug and abandonment (P&A) operations during oil and gas well decommissioning. However, the technologies commonly used require unimpeded access to the casing annuli thus enforcing the need for production tubing pulling or inner casing milling. Cement integrity or isolation evaluation through multilayered well casing strings will provide the opportunity to significantly reduce operational time and costs and to greatly simplify the traditional P&A process. As desired by the industry for years, recent advancements in isolation evaluation have proven the feasibility to assess cement sheath quality without the removal of production tubing or inner casing.
