Since 1969, Conoco Inc. has installed ten offshore wells and one land test of subsea completion systems. These wells consist of four single zone oil wells plus one water injection well with Thru Flowline (TFL) pumpdown capability and three single zone gas wells plus three dual zone gas wells utilizing the ''Plain Jane'' wellheads without TFL capability. The control systems for these wells have varied from an electro-hydraulic sequential system to a straight discrete hydraulic system. This paper deals with the design, installation, and operational problems encountered and the remedial procedures taken to solve the problems to date.
