Rotary Drilling Unit III: Nonroutine Operations, Lesson 2Price: $30.00
Catalog No. 2.30230
Losing equipment in the hole is one of the most expensive and dangerous things that can go wrong in drilling a well. Drilling must come to a halt until the equipment is recovered, or the hole must be sidetracked. The well also can become hard to control with essential tools out of reach, increasing the risk of a blowout. Fishing, or recovering lost or stuck equipment in the hole, is therefore a critical procedure at any drilling operation.
This training manual serves as an overview of the tools and techniques of open-hole fishing in rotary drilling rigs. The book covers the major causes of fishing jobs; basic steps in fishing out a twistoff, stuck pipe, wireline, or junk lost in the hole; and the economics of fishing. Readable language, clearly labeled illustrations and photographs, a glossary, and helpful review questions aid the reader in comprehending the material. 1988, 56 pp. ISBN 0-88698-126-3.
