Baker Hughes Unveils SureCONNECT™ FE: Advanced Downhole Intelligent Wet-Mate System

Baker Hughes has unveiled SureCONNECT FE, a revolutionary downhole fiber-optic wet-mate system that brings real-time data to high-pressure and temperature environments in wells.

This innovative technology streamlines the process by establishing seamless communication between lower and upper completion systems via its cutting-edge fiber-optics solution, thus significantly reducing operational time, costs, and environmental risks associated with traditional solutions.

By integrating comprehensive monitoring capabilities through fiber optics at every stage of wellbore sandface implementation without requiring an intervention, operators can now make more informed decisions while boosting production efficiency. The system facilitates efficient workover operations by allowing upper completion servicing or reconfigurations to be performed without the need for retrieval of lower completions, thereby reducing downtime.

Leveraging years of expertise and data-driven insights, SureCONNECT FE provides a deeper understanding of reservoir behavior, empowering operators to optimize production even in complex environments, according to Nathan Holland, global portfolio director for completions and wellbore intervention at Baker Hughes. Electric-based solutions like SureCONNECT FE are revolutionizing upstream operations, yielding significant gains in efficiency and reliability by streamlining processes with cutting-edge technology.

With its proven efficacy across diverse scenarios – from deep-sea to complex well environments – the impact of this innovative system is far-reaching and impactful. The SureCONNECT FE system seamlessly integrates with a range of completion techniques, such as gravel packing and frac pack operations, in addition to standalone screen installations.
