Trendsetter debuts 20K intervention system

Trendsetter Engineering made the first deployment of its Trident 20K intervention system in the US Gulf of Mexico. Trident 20K was deployed from Transocean’s Deepwater Atlas drillship for a two-well flowback operation at Beacon’s Shenandoah project.

Trendsetter wet-hopped the system between wells, reducing operational costs and saving several days of critical path rig time. The system has since returned to Trendsetter for post-campaign maintenance.

When Trendsetter introduced its Trident 15K Intervention System in 2020, it was the first step towards a larger goal: the development and deployment of the industry’s first 20K OWIRS. The Trident 20K OWIRS represents years of dedicated research, development, engineering, design, assembly and testing, culminating in this groundbreaking achievement.
