Method and system for monitoring an annulus pressure of a well

Methods and systems for monitoring an annulus pressure of a well. The method includes performing periodic surveys to monitor an annulus pressure of the well, determining the annulus pressure of the well over a period of time, comparing the annulus pressure to a Maximum Allowable Wellhead Operating Pressure (MAWOP), and generating a decision on whether the well is a workover candidate based on results of the comparison. The system includes a collecting tool that performs periodic surveys to monitor an annulus pressure of the well, determines the annulus pressure of the well over a period of time, and broadcasts information relating to the periodic surveys. The system further includes a processor that obtains the information relating the periodic surveys, compares the annulus pressure to a Maximum Allowable Wellhead Operating Pressure (MAWOP), and generates a decision on whether the well is a workover candidate based on the results of the comparison.
