The commodity price downturn is prompting price reductions among well service contractors in the greater Rockies outside the Williston Basin. In mid-January 2015, service providers report rates down about 10% quarter-to-quarter, similar to reports elsewhere in the oil patch as operators push the service sector for cost reduction. Meanwhile, larger service providers worry about further rate cutting from local, privately-held contractors. Rate reductions have not yet translated to reduction in wages for hands, although expectations are that pricing is going to drop further on the basis of lower commodity prices.

Among Survey Participants:Rig Demand Down QTQ [See Question 1 on Statistical Review]. Seven of the eight respondents said that demand had dropped in 1Q15 vs 4Q14 and all but one blamed lower oil prices for the slowing. One respondent that had seen a slowdown in demand said it was because they had finished all of their completion work. The respondent who had not seen an effect on demand said that their work was steady, but they were hearing of others slowing down.Mid-Tier Well Service Manager: “We are seeing demand slow for rigs and prices are being reduced. Operators are asking for 20% reductions, some are asking for 30% and they may get it. The greater reductions will be from people who are local because they don"t have the overhead expense. The service won’t be as good. On average, operators may get 15% of that 30% they are seeking in reductions.”

Number of Rigs Sufficient [See Question 2 on Statistical Review]. Six of the eight respondents said that the workover rig inventory is excessive for the current demand, while two said that it is sufficient but tipping toward excessive.Mid-Tier Operator: “Operators here are basically focusing on the higher production wells and going to ignore the lower ones. We have heard companies are laying down workover rigs. One company is going from 17 to 13.”

Well Service Work Weighted Toward Standard Workovers and Routine Maintenance [See Question 3 on Statistical Review]. Among all respondents, standard workover work accounts for 34% on average, routine maintenance accounts for 34%, plug and abandonment (P&A) accounts for 16% and completion work accounts for 16%.Mid-Tier Well Service Manager: “Our work slowed because we finished our completion work so the client gave us some production work to keep us steady till we finish this fracking job.”

Hourly Rates Consistent Among HP Series [See Question 5 on Statistical Review]. Most workover rig horsepower falls within the range of the 500 series. The 500 HP hourly rates average $310 to $400/hour depending on what ancillary equipment is contracted. See Table II for Average Hourly Rates.

Hart Energy researchers completed interviews with nine industry participants in the workover/well service segment in areas of the Rocky Mountains outside of the Bakken Shale play. Participants included one oil and gas operator and seven managers with well service companies. Interviews were conducted during January 2015.

3. Looking at your slate of well service work - on a percentage basis - how much of it is workover vs. routine maintenance vs. plug & abandonment (P&A) vs. completion work?

We like to throw around “blog ideas” over here at Croft to help my fellow blog partner, Amy and I have a new fresh blog every week. We try to keep our readers up to date with both the new and the old.  Someone threw out the idea of writing about a workover rig. Still being new to the industry, I snatched this topic up because I simply wanted to learn more about it myself!  My main focus for this blog is simply discussing what is a workover rig and why it is important.

First off, maybe you know a workover rig by a different name. They can be called completion wells or pulling units. I just want to try to avoid any confusion! I am going to give Wikipedia’s definition first and then break it down to layman’s terms for those of you who don’t quite understand what the Wiki is trying to say (Like me). According to Wikipedia, “The term workover is used to refer to any kind of oil well intervention involving invasive techniques, such as wireline, coiled tubing or snubbing. More specifically though, it will refer to the expensive process of pulling and replacing a completion.” Let’s break down some of that Terminology…

Snubbing: This method is used in more demanding situations when wireline and coiled tubing does not offer the strength and durability needed. Snubbing runs the bottom hole assembly on a pipe string using a hydraulic workover rig.

So basically, the purpose of a workover rig is to replace a well with a fresh completion. This may have to happen due to the well deteriorating or the changing of reservoir conditions. This is performed if a well completion is unsuitable for the job at hand. An example of the well deteriorating is the equipment may have become damaged or corroded such as production tubing, safety valves, electrical pumps, etc. An example of the changing of reservoir conditions maybe if the flow of a well has decreased over time. If this happens, when the well was originally drilled, it was fit for tubing that was big enough for a higher flow of oil and gas. As the flow decreased, smaller tubing is now needed.

For a workover to take place, a well must be killed or in other words, stop the flow of oil or gas. This is an intense procedure for a workover to take place, so they are planned long in advance.
