Hunting has announced the launch of Opti-TEK, a new suite of optimised intervention technologies designed to help operators extend well life, reduce downtime and improve decision-making — while lowering operational costs and environmental impact.

Built on Hunting’s TEK-HUB innovation platform, Opti-TEK combines in-house expertise with strategic technology partnerships to accelerate next-generation tools to market.

 The initial product line includes:

• Opti-TEK Slickline Tubing Cutter – Disruptive, non-explosive, downhole cutting. A battery-powered, autonomous cutter with CNC-precision for safe, efficient, verified severance in plug and abandonment (P&A) operations, or environmentally sensitive locations.

• Opti-TEK Data Stem Downhole intelligence for slickline operations. A plug-and-play slickline tool that captures pressure, temperature, accelerometer and CCL data at a fraction of conventional system costs.

• Opti-TEK Monitoring System for Greaseless Cable Pack-Off– Real-time data tracking and predictive maintenance capabilities for greaseless cable pack-off heads.

• Opti-TEK Valves – A step-change in valve design: ultra-lightweight, compact, service-friendly wireline valves delivering high cutting force from low pressure inputs.

Allan Gill, Product Line Director for Well Intervention, commented: “Opti-TEK represents Hunting’s commitment to delivering smarter, safer and more cost-effective interventions. By aligning cutting-edge innovation with real-world operational demands, we are enabling our customers to optimise every intervention and maximise the value of their asset.”

These technologies will feature as part of the technology showcase at Hunting’s Adipec and ICoTA Europe exhibitions. -OGN/TradeArabia News Service
