Halliburton introduces IntelliTTCE for early P&A planning

Halliburton launched its IntelliTTCE through-tubing cement evaluation service to help operators verify zonal isolation before plug and abandonment (P&A) operations offshore. The service gives operators earlier insight into cement condition, which conventional workflows often delay until after tubing removal and rig mobilization.

IntelliTTCE evaluates cement through the tubing, combining two independent deterministic evaluation methods with high-resolution azimuthal cement mapping to characterize cement behind pipe. Halliburton describes the physics-based, through-tubing approach as designed for offshore P&A, with consistent, repeatable results.

Operators can use the results to verify barrier integrity before abandonment, avoid unnecessary tubing retrieval and plan P&A campaigns around actual well conditions rather than assumptions. The data also helps define the scope and sequence of later P&A intervention work.
