Cretrax

Engineering services company for wellbore clean and abandonment, Coretrax, has been rapidly expanding in the Middle East. The UK-based company has recently moved its Saudi Arabian operations into a bigger 130,000 sqft facility in Dammam. The facility can accommodate up to 150 personnel and  has a warehouse/training complex. The base is one of five for Coretrax in the Middle East, the others located in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Kuwait and Kurdistan. Speaking of its upstream portfolio, Coretrax’s signature product – the CX-IST – can be deployed from the surface down the work string and inflated to provide a 100% seal between the tool and the casing wall. One of the benefits of this tool is that it gives operators a positive indication that the cement will be set in the correct place.
