Technology qualification

New and modified products must be ready from a technological and operational point of view before installation and operational use. This is achieved by carrying out the project planning process followed by the project execution process. A successful project execution process will make a new or modified product ready from a technological and operational point of view. An introduction to qualification of well technology follows:

· Qualification of well technology

ExproSoft has long experience with miscellaneous qualification activities including:

· Technology Qualification Programs (TQP)
· Performance of FMECA of downhole equipment (>20)
· Performance of OPERA (conceptual risk analysis)
· Test program development
· On-site test witnessing
· Inspection of failed items
· Operational readiness of crew

These efforts lead to correction of any design deficiencies or potential human errors and reduced intervention costs in the field.

ExproSoft has developed an extensive knowledge base called ExproBase that is used for equipment qualification. ExproBase includes guidelines for work processes (like FMECA, testing, etc) and guideline supporting tools (like material database, failure mechanism database, etc).
