Abstract
A method for remotely testing wellhead integrity of a well is disclosed. The method includes connecting valves and associated gauges of the well remotely to a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system, obtaining real time pressure and temperature readings through the SCADA system, detecting, using a thermal infrared camera installed at a wellhead tree and flow lines of the well, potential oil/gas leak, and determining, by the SCADA system and based at least on the real time pressure and temperature readings and a detection result of the thermal infrared camera, integrity of the valves.
