Well Abandonment (P&A) RFQ — Cement Plugs, Coiled-Tubing Path, and Pressure-Control Fields
Buyers search well abandonment, plugging and well abandonment, or P&A coiled tubing when a plugging-and-abandonment (P&A) program must become a quote — and the request often collapses to one vague line: “abandonment package.” That hides the decisions that drive fit: which plug duties (primary, intermediate, surface) the program names, how cleanout and perforate/cut open access, which pressure-control path covers coiled-tubing work, and how cement class/slurry plus verification close the RFQ.
This page is not a rewrite of soft encyclopedia posts. Use cost-effective well abandonment remediation, plugging and well abandonment coiled tubing, coiled tubing complete guide, and packers and perforating only as process primers. It is also not a rewrite of related pack #25 (coiled-tubing buyer guide), which owns CT BOP RFQ alone, or #8 (types of cement oil and gas buyer guide), which owns cement class/slurry RFQ alone. This page turns program-level well abandonment / P&A — duty stack → equipment/materials path → checklist → quote — into fields that feed live CNPS pages, then request a quote.
Start with duty, not with a label
A P&A package is a sequence of duties. Name what each step must achieve before you ask for hardware or slurry:
| Duty | Question the RFQ must answer |
|---|---|
| Primary / intermediate / surface plugs | Which plug intervals, lengths, and isolation objectives does the program name? |
| Cleanout | What debris, scale, or fill must be cleared so plugs can be placed? |
| Perforate / cut for access | Which intervals need perforating or cutting so slurry reaches the target annulus or formation? |
| Pressure control during CT | Which working pressure, bore, ram set, and control path cover live-well CT work? |
| Verification / logging | How will plug placement and isolation be confirmed (logging / program acceptance)? |
| Remedial cementing | Is this plug/squeeze repair, abandonment plug placement, or both — with which slurry and interfaces? |
Soft CT-for-P&A education frames a buyer-question sequence: cleanout → perforate/cut → cement plug placement (primary / intermediate / surface) → logging / verification. Use that only as RFQ framing — do not treat it as a CNPS fleet or capability claim, and do not invent CTU counts or industry fleet percentages.
Equipment / materials path — map to published CNPS pages
Map the P&A stack only to live pages. Prefer body/table specs over sidebar widgets if they conflict.
**Remedial cementing / plug placement — cementing** — pumping-program RFQ framing: slurry, rates, volumes, pressures, interfaces, standards, testing, delivery. Primary vs remedial FAQ language separates annular sheath work from plug/squeeze/repair. For Class G/H vs OPC and primary-vs-remedial cement fields, cross-link the types of cement oil and gas buyer guide — do not rewrite it here.
**CT pressure control — API 16A Coiled Tubing BOP** — conformity to API 16A; anti-H2S per NACE MR 0175 as published. Intro frames annular BOP construction (body / header / rubber core / piston); KEY FEATURE bullets use single-ram BOP wording for seal / suspend / side-outlet / under-pressure — quote carefully as published; do not invent an annular-vs-ram resolution. Published models 2FZ18-21 / 2FZ18-35: WP 3000 / 5000 psi; nominal diameter 7 1/16 / 7 3/8 in; strength test 6000 / 7500 psi; oil cylinder 1200–1500 psi; metal temp −29~121 °C, nonmetal −18~121 °C; rams 2 3/8″ · 2 7/8″ · 3 1/2″ · 4 1/2″ + blind; table weights 1717 / 1780 lb; piston stroke 100 mm. Sidebar Weight 6617 kg — cite table lb separately; do not invent reconciliation. Full CT BOP RFQ depth belongs to pack #25; here the BOP is one node in the P&A stack.
**CT vs other PCE — wellhead pressure control RFQ matrix** — CT BOP row distinct from drilling / workover BOP. RFQ dims: WP, bore, API family, end connection, fluid/temp, control, docs, qty / spares / destination / date.
**Access via perforating carriers — API 5CT perforating gun pipes** — OD tol ≤±0.5%, WT ≤±0.8%, tortuosity ≤1 mm/m; swelling ≤5 mm, burr ≤5 mm; QCBQB 232-2013 as published; conventional + horizontal gun carriers. Confirm OD / WT / grade / phasing — do not invent gun charge sizes. Related #26 / #15 packs are sister intent; prefer this product page when buyer-guide URLs are unpublished.
Scope stack — plugs, access, pressure control, cement, verification
- Plug plan — primary / intermediate / surface intervals; lengths and isolation objectives.
- Access path — cleanout; perforate/cut intervals; carrier OD/WT/grade/phasing if guns are in scope.
- Pressure control — CT BOP WP/bore/ram set/control (2FZ18-21 or 2FZ18-35); keep CT BOP distinct from drilling BOP on the RFQ matrix.
- Cement materials — Class G/H (or OPC only if the program allows); slurry density, volumes, rates, pressures; primary vs remedial via cementing and the types of cement buyer guide.
- Verification — logging / acceptance the program names; documents and testing as published RFQ language requires.
- Interfaces and commercial — wellhead / CT / cementing interfaces; quantity, spares, destination, need-by date.
No invented SKUs, prices, plants, case studies, CT fleet stats, ICoTA percentages, gun charge sizes, or certificate seals beyond published page language.
Well abandonment RFQ checklist
- Duty — full P&A program, remedial plug/squeeze only, CT-assisted abandonment, or combined stack.
- Plug plan — primary / intermediate / surface plugs; interval depths, lengths, isolation objective.
- Access path — cleanout; perforate/cut intervals; carrier OD/WT/grade/phasing if applicable (API 5CT perforating gun pipes).
- Pressure control — CT BOP path (2FZ18-21 / 2FZ18-35); WP, bore, ram set, control; align with the wellhead pressure control RFQ matrix.
- Cement class / slurry — API class, density window, volumes, rates, pressures; primary vs remedial (cementing · types of cement buyer guide).
- Verification — logging / acceptance method; testing and standards language as the program requires.
- Interfaces — CT / wellhead / cementing mating notes; fluid and temperature against published classes.
- Documents — API / NACE framing as published; project document list (cite page language only — no invented cert numbers).
- Qty / destination / date — quantities, spares, ship-to, need-by.
- Related scope — call out CT BOP-only (#25) or cement-class-only (#8) line items separately so quotes do not merge SERP intents.

A useful well abandonment request fits on one page: duty, plug plan, access path, pressure control, cement class/slurry, verification, interfaces, documents, commercial fields, and related-scope flags. Missing fields get flagged in review.
