WATERCUT AUSTRALIA
WATERCUT AUSTRALIA
Watercut Australia (formerly known as UHP) was awarded the 2007 Director’s EHS Award for Best Health and Safety Project or Innovation from Santos Oils Australia. The award was won for its development and utilisation of abrasive water jet technology for field work in the Cooper basin South Australia.
Watercut Australia prides itself on the ability to find solutions for complicated problems.
ABOUT WATERCUT AUSTRALIA
Watercut Australia (formerly known as UHP Solutions) specialises in abrasive water jet technology Its field operations are fast becoming recognised for their ability to provide solutions to a number of different clients such as Chevron Australia and Santos Oils Australia PTTEP
An abrasive water jet entrainment system mixes the abrasive with the water jet in a mixing chamber just after the nozzle In most systems being built today, a venturi effect is utilised to pull the abrasive into the water jet The abrasive particles are accelerated into the stream and then with the stream out the focusing tube
WATERCUT VIDEO
Water Cut Australia has been in operation for over 20 years, with a combined 52 years experience for both on and offshore work, possessing an impressive 100% safety record.
Regardless of how remote the location, from the remote outback to an unmanned monopod or rig, this fully selfcontained unit is able to work in any area.
Utilising an inert form of cutting with only water and garnet as the medium, minimises risks of explosion or fire.
Being remotely operated ensures minimal personnel in the immediate area of operation, providing a safe work environment.

WELLHEAD AND FLOWLINE REMOVAL
Description - INERT JET CUTTING
It is agreed in the industry that one of the most dangerous aspects of a well’s life can be decommissioning, if not handled correctly.
This can lead to unplanned events or even harm to personnel and the environment, particularly when removing wellheads, redundant gas flow lines or oil and gas storage vessels.
R&D Solutions uses custom built Ultra High Pressure (UHP) Inert jet cutting technology to precision cut and remove wellheads and flow-lines, removing the need for old fashioned techniques and burning equipment. An example of a typical set up and the resulting clean cut wellhead ready for disposal is shown adjacent.
UHP technology has a successful 11-year track record of use by major oil and gas companies on and offshore.
Advantages of using UHP technology include:
• Inert cutting using high pressure water and garnet, no naked flame
• Safe to use with no one in close proximity to the cutting head
• Minimal environmental footprint
• Unit self contained
• Staff trained to cutting industry standards
• 4 x 4 driver trained
• IVMS installed
• Remote area permit trained.
