Riserless Light

Well Intervention
Reducing the cost of offshore intervention operations
Riserless Light
Well Intervention
Riserless Light Well Intervention (RLWI) represents a safe, efficient
and cost-effective intervention method for subsea fields. Reducing
the cost of offshore intervention operations is the driving force behind
the development of the RLWI technology.
Our equipment has successfully intervened on more than 580 wells
over the past 10-years.

System description
By enabling riserless, wireline and slickline operations,
operators are able to bring new wells into production,
increase production from existing wells without
the need for a rig, or facilitate plug and abandon
(P&A) projects .
The RLWI system is flexible and can perform
intervention operations in production and injection
wells fitted with all types of subsea tree configurations.
The system has provision for well killing. It is designed
to operate efficiently and competitively in comparison
to drilling rig-based intervention operations.
It is currently available in 7-1/16” 10,000 psi
configuration. It includes Upper and Lower Lubricator
Packages, together with a Well Control Package (WCP)
and adapters to suite most subsea tree types.

Patented Lubricator System
TechnipFMC’s RLWI technology includes a PCH -
patented Lubricator System for inserting Pressure Control Head
downhole tool packages into the wellbore Installation package #3
under full pressure without taking (w/wire line tool string)

hydrocarbons back to the vessel or to


the environment. The technology enables
integrated operations, increases safety by
reducing personnel exposure, as well as
reducing cost.
