SURFACE CUT & CAP PROPOSAL
CUT & CAP LIGHTHOUSE ENERGY GROUP
Prepared for LightHouse Energy Group. A field-ready plan using Innovative Well Abandonment's Abrasive Mixing Unit (AMU) ultra-high-pressure cutting system.The newest generation of waterjet cutting technology — up to 4x faster than conventional waterjet, and ideally suited to deep wells with conductor barrels. Safe, efficient deep Cut & Cap.
Maximum effective cut depth
Below-ground reach, conventional waterjet vs. IWA
Conventional Waterjet
IWA AMU Technology
3x+ deeper reach — cut zones at 10m, 8m, 6m and 4m.

01 — Use Cases
Deep Cut Applications
Where a deeper engineered cut & cap is required for infrastructure and land development.
Urban Redevelopment & Commercial Construction
- Abandoned well on land redeveloped for commercial, residential or mixed-use
- Underground parking and foundations may conflict with the wellhead
- Deeper cut and cap to fit the development, subject to approval
- Clients: municipalities, developers, builders, operators
Highway & Major Road Infrastructure
- Well within highway expansions, interchanges or bridge approaches
- Excavation, drainage and utility crossings may conflict with casing
- Engineered deeper cut matched to construction elevations
- Clients: Alberta Transportation, Sask. Highways, municipalities, civil contractors
Mining, Aggregate Pits & Earthworks
- Well within gravel pits, aggregate or regrading projects
- Overburden removal may expose casing cut at standard depth
- Deeper cut and cap matched to final excavation depth
- Clients: aggregate producers, mining companies, landowners, developers
Industrial Facilities & Underground Infrastructure
- New plants, terminals or utilities over or near a well
- Tanks, sumps, vaults or pipelines may extend below cut elevation
- Site-specific cutting plan for engineered excavations
- Clients: producers, pipeline companies, utilities, engineering firms
