Baker Oil Tools Introduces Tension Cut and Pull Subsea Wellhead Retrieval System

HOUSTON (February 13, 2003) - The new Baker Oil Tools Tension Cut and Pull Subsea Wellhead Retrieval System can save hundreds of thousands of dollars by reducing the number of trips needed to recover intermediate casing strings and wellhead from the seabed.

The Baker Oil Tools Tension Cut and Pull Subsea Wellhead Retrieval System can engage any manufacturer's wellhead, cut conductors in tension, and recover the wellhead from the seabed in a single trip.

"With the costs of deepwater operations, any opportunity to improve efficiencies without increasing risk is welcome," said Baker Oil Tools Fishing Product Line Manager James Sonnier. "Deepwater operators can reduce the number of trips and save rig time and operating expenses with the Tension Cut and pull Subsea Wellhead Retrieval System."

Besides bringing improved efficiency to deepwater operations, the Baker Oil Tools Tension Cut and Pull Subsea Wellhead Retrieval System is reliable and safe. The system uses all hydraulically operated components and requires no motors and no explosives, which means decreased risk and reduced damage to the subsea habitat.
