1. Make sure that the customer engagement data sheet, in Contingency Operations Job
Planning document is correctly completed and discussed.
2. Read and discuss the recommended contingency plans with the necessary personnel
in the client organization.
3. CHECKLIST ITEM;
Use the Fishing risk assessment tool and flow diagram during the client meeting to decide
the applicable fishing method. (InTouch content ID 5798463).
Refer to the fishing SWIs for instructions on the fishing technique:
• Cut and Thread
• Reverse Cut and Thread
• Logging While Fishing
• Open-ended Fishing

Note
You must obey all legal requirements when you fish for radioactive sources.

4. Make sure that the necessary fishing kit and accessories are available for the operation.
5. Make sure that the length of cable on the drum is sufficient to complete the fishing
operation.
6. Make sure that the client approved and signed the LWOP summary sheet.

2.2 Special considerations


Step Action
1. Make a rig-specific fishing rig-up plan, to include a rig visit if necessary. The items that
follow are the minimum that must be checked on a rig visit:
• Sheave position in the crown.
• Routing of the cable through top drive to pipe.
• Routing of the cable from unit to well head.
• Visibility of cable routing or sheaves by sight, or by camera from the unit.
2. Make a rig-specific HARC, and review it during the fishing operation.

Note
See Appendix B (p. 41) for the different fishing kits and part numbers, and H2S rated
fishing downhole overshot for SFT-644 and SFT-709 (available on special order).

When using the 1-11/16-in O.D. rope socket kit equipment, the hex adapter should be
utilized on every descent. However, there are occasions when the drill pipe I.D. will not
allow the adapter to pass through. These include: tapered string and/or heavy weight drill
pipe. In this case the plain adapter will be required. It must later be swapped for the hex
adapter at the first opportunity. This usually occurs when standard drill pipe is added to the
string. A “no-go” is not available for the 3-3/8-in O.D. top sub since this is the slim hole
version of the SFT-644.

5. Prepare the Reverse Cut and Thread stripping kit assembly (100974733).

4 Execute

4.1 Do the pre-rig up preparations

DO NOT USE MORE THAN THE SAFE WORKING LOAD OF THE WIRELINE
CABLE, OR 75% OF THE LOWER WEAKPOINT RATING AT THE HEAD. THE
CABLE/WEAKPOINT CAN BREAK AND CAUSE INJURY.
Step Action
1. At the first sign of sticking, close all the calipers, pull to the Maximum Safe Pull (MSP),
and apply the break.
If tension drops, re-apply MSP and set brakes again. Monitor the tension closely.

Note
Cable cycling (or ‘yo-yo’-ing) is tough on cables and can result in a bird cage, or worse, a
disaster.

Cable Cycling
In case of a toolstring or cable stuck situation:
• The first pull-up must be to the maximum safe pull limit (MSP).
• Temporary stop just below the jar activation point is allowed to determine if the tool
will come free without jarring.
• Winch speed is limited to 2000 f/hr until the tool is free.
• Do not cycle the cable.

Step Action
HCS Wireline InTouch\Uchenna Eke, Barry Albert Lumankun\InTouch Content ID 6184644\4.4\Release Date:12-Jul-2016\EDMS UID: 1657883568\Produced: 12-Jul-2016 12:50:58

In case of a toolstring getting held-up while running in the hole (RIH), a cycle is triggered
when tension is reduced to:
• Less than 60% of the normal up-tension in wells with less than 10 degrees of deviation.
• Less than 50% of the normal up tension for wells with more than 10 degrees of
deviation.
And then returned to, at least, normal up tension for the well. Attempts to pass an
obstruction is limited to three cycles at one depth.
When moving down from a stationary point, slack the cable off in 500 lbs increments
of surface tension while waiting for the tension release to be transmitted to the logging
tool. Surface tension should not drop below:
• 60% of the normal up-tension in wells with less than 10 degrees of deviation.
• 50% of the normal up tension for wells with more than 10 degrees of deviation.

Note
• Normal up tension is the surface tension recognized by the CMTD/TDL while moving
out of the hole at logging speed and under normal logging conditions (no sticking).
• The above cycle definition is quantified only by the magnitude of the drop in tension
from the normal up logging tension. However, the larger the variation between the
highest tension and lowest tension the cable is exposed to (tension differentials), the
larger the impact on the load sharing mechanism between the armor packages and
torque induced. As long as the cable is under significant tension, these factors will not
have the opportunity to progress causing any cable anomaly (birdcage, high-armors,
loose armors, stranded armors, and etc.).
• More the cycles performed, more are the resulting torque imbalances and hence
more is the chance of cable damage. This is particularly important since the cycles
performed in previous jobs might affect the cables in subsequent jobs, if the cable
was not returned for service and twisting afterwards. Having said that, the total
number of cycles should be always tracked between cable services and recorded in
RITE (as remarks).
• Regardless of the tension/speed values, below four factors must always be considered
– The tension must NEVER be dropped below the cable weight in mud.
– The concept of cycling (as defined above) should be clear to the FE/FS or winch
operator, so that they understand the damage mechanism and consequence
on the cable.
– Cycling is NOT permitted upon sticking.

MAKE SURE THAT THE WEAR PAD TOUCHES THE BEAM IN STEP 6. SHARP
EDGES CAN CUT THE SLING AND CAUSE THE EQUIPMENT TO FALL.
2. Lower the elevator and remove the sheave wheel.
3. CHECKLIST ITEM;
Cut the cable 12 ft above the rotary table, plus 1 ft for every 1,000 ft more than 10,000
ft for deviated holes (more than a 30 deg deviation), and 12 ft above the rotary table for
vertical holes.
Remember to take “Heave” and "Tide" level into account.
4. Tie off the upper end of the cable to the rig to prevent it from being pulled over the sheave
wheel.
5. Look at the slings fiber optic cable for light.
Light shows that there is no damage to the internal core or sling.
6. Hang the sheave on the derrick.
Make sure that you hang the sheave as high as possible, to allow sufficient space
between the sheave and the top of the drill pipe in a location with no interference of pipe
handling, and on a major structural beam of the derrick that can hold twice the cable
breaking strength.

Note
The position of the upper sheave should be changed if the cable starts interfering with
drillpipe operations.

MAKE SURE THAT THE WEAR PAD TOUCHES THE BEAM. SHARP EDGES CAN CUT
THE SLING AND CAUSE THE EQUIPMENT TO FALL.
7. Use the longest link/bail available.

The links must have a length of 140-in or more to increase the distance between the
drillpipe and top drive.
A roller assembly which has a minimum diameter of 5-in can be used on the top drive
to prevent cable rubbing.

DO NOT USE BICYCLE WHEELS BECAUSE THEY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE CABLE.
Do not allow the use of bicycle wheels. They are commonly only rated to 6000 lbs (the
standard Varco and Aker ones) and they will add an acute angle in the cable path that will

Do not allow the use of S-shaped pipe. Although it appears to be a very good idea to
route the cable away from the top drive unit, it is NOT. The constant uphole and downhole
movement of the wireline logging cable under tension will either cut slots in the pipe or
damage the cable.

4. Flag the cable right in front of the IDW and set the “bottom shutdown alarms” accordingly,
so that there is no over slack overshot assembly on the rig floor.

5. Make sure that the spearhead is fully disconnected before you touch the spearhead,
or move the winch.
6. Do not overslack the spearhead overshot. Make sure that the tension at the cable is
enough to release the overshot with the special tongs.
It will take several attempts for the winch man to get the correct tension applied on the
cable. Once the winch man gets the correct tension, document it for future reference.

Note
When the spearhead overshot fails to release, the only method is to slack the cable and
release the spearhead overshot with special tongs and pull the spearhead overshot with
hand.

Never attempt to release the spearhead overshot by pulling from top of sheave wheel and
or stepping on tie down chain and or pulling the cable from lower sheave wheel side.

4.6 Circulate before engaging fish

DO NOT USE A PUMP RATE MORE THAN 600 galUS/min ( 136.3 m3/hr).
HIGHER PUMP RATES CAUSE WASHOUT OF THE CABLE.
Step Action Figure
1. If the fish has a RADIOACTIVE source,
use a Geiger counter so you can monitor mud returns.
2. Connect a circulation sub one or two stand
above the casing shoe to clean out the
grapple.

Note
The fishing kit has a 3-1/2-in and 4-1/2-in
circulating sub and insert. If the rig has
different size drill pipes, they will have to
provide the proper crossovers.

3. Start the pump slowly ramping up in 100 psi increments.


Do 1 Cycle @ 500 PSI and write down the SPM (Stroke Per Minute) and GPM (Gallon
Per Minute) from driller’s console.
Do not pump more than 700 PSI since it is unnecessary. The idea is to clean out the
grapple.

Note
If you have a long open hole, you can circulate every 20-25 stands in open hole.

Prolonged circulation above the fish may cause a wash-out that will make it more difficult
to find the fish.

Never lower the circulation sub into the hole.

3.

Do not rotate and jerk the drill pipe during engagement process. There is a risk of breaking
the grapple due rotating the drill pipe while engaged with the fish. This risk must be
communicated to the client as Schlumberger cannot guarantee the condition of the grapple
downhole during engagement process with rotation.

Monitor the tension and set 2000 lbf more on the fish and do not exceed the maximum
safe pull of the cable and weakpoint breakage ratings.

Note
There will be no increase in surface tension until the tool is freed up and moved downhole.
The driller may notice a loss in hook load; this is an indication that the tool has been
engaged.

4. Pull two joints of drillpipe (60 ft), if applicable, and monitor the tension loss of at least
2,000 lbf (minimum) to confirm engagement.
Check with Drillers weight indicator and Mud logger weight indicator and record the value.

DO NOT TURN THE PIPE AFTER YOU ENGAGE THE FISH. THIS WILL PREVENT
DAMAGE TO THE CABLE, AND PREVENT ACCIDENTAL DISCONNECTION OF THE
FISH.

5. Pick up the cable to 1000 lbs over the cable weight and ask the driller to go down again,
until the tension increases 2000 lbf.
6. Do the process a minimum of two times to make sure that the fish is in the downhole
overshot.
7. If “dry pull out of hole” is decided, increase Drain sub
the mud pump pressure to blow the disk
in the sub.
The pressure necessary to blow the disk is
approximately 1,600 psi.

8. If “dry pull out of hole” is decided, Use the lowest possible flow rate of the rig and increase
gradually.
Try 40 galUS/min (9.085 m3/hr) flow rate.
9. If “dry pull out of hole” is decided AND the pressure reduces suddenly (meaning the disk
has blown), STOP the pumps immediately to prevent cable washout.

Note
For cable connection, refer to Appendix L, LWF Uphole and Downhole Assembly,
of the LWF SWI (InTouch content ID 6431876). Ignore steps 8 and 9 that give
instruction to connect the CCTS to the CSES, the uphole conductors to the
downhole conductors, and the uphole ground to the downhole ground.

Step Action

4. Calculate the stretch necessary to break the weak point.


Stretch (ft) = Delta Tension (lb) × Depth of top of fish (ft) × Stretch Coefficient

Note
Delta Tension = Tension difference between tension required to break the weak point (WP)
and maximum safe pull (MSP). The C-plate rating needs to be taken into consideration
when defining Delta Tension, otherwise the C-plate may be damaged. Obtain the Stretch
Coefficient from the ALC Manual ( Intouch Content ID: 3614996) or ToolPlanner ( Intouch
Content ID: 3272999).

5. Make sure that the rig has sufficient height above the drill floor to accommodate the stretch
of the cable when attempting to break the weak point.
6. Slack the cable.
7. Clear the rig floor and make sure that no one is near the cable.
8. Put the “Top drive” down.
9. Make sure the cable will not rub the top drive.
10. Put the cable tension to MSP and be aware of T-bar spinning.
11. Check the T-bar cable clamp for slippage for five (5) minutes.
12. Connect the elevator to the T-bar cable clamp.
13. Move the top drive up.
The CMTD tension will drop when the top drive is moving upwards, since the tension is
taken by top drive.

14. Pull the top drive slowly up to the tension required to break the weak point and hold until
the weak point breaks.
Monitor the weight indicator from the driller’s console closely.

Note
Before starting to pull the top drive up, it is a good practice to zero the weigh indicator on
the driller’s console. Note when the T-bar cable clamp is picked up just above the C-plate;
the tension should be close to the MSP. Make sure that the weight indicator on driller’s
console is being calibrated and has a valid calibration.

Do not rotate and jerk the drill pipe. There is a risk of breaking the grapple due to activities
such as jarring, excessive tension/compression cycles, and rotating the drill pipe with the
fish engaged. This risk must be communicated to the client as Schlumberger cannot
guarantee the condition of the grapple downhole after the above activity.

Pull the drill pipe, with the fish, out of the hole at slow speed and ask the driller to monitor
the weight of the drill pipe to make sure the fish is still engaged.
3. Once the tool is at the surface, install the
C-plate immediately to prevent the fish
from falling down into the well.

Potential Severity: Serious


Potential Loss: Assets,
Personnel
Hazard Category: Potential
energy

Do not to attempt to pull out the complete


toolstring at the surface, since there is a
big chance of dropping the whole toolstring
into the well.

4. Break the toolstring apart and remove the downhole overshot with the grappled tool inside.
5. Remove the tool from the downhole
overshot. Remove the guide shoe and
bump the tool vertically against the rig floor
to free the grapple control. “Turn” the tool
and grapple out of the overshot by turning
in a “clockwise” motion.

4.9.2 Dry pull out of hole


Step Action Figure

1.

Do not rotate and jerk the drill pipe. There is a risk of breaking the grapple due to activities
such as jarring, excessive tension/compression cycles, and rotating the drill pipe with the
fish engaged. This risk must be communicated to the client as Schlumberger cannot
guarantee the condition of the grapple downhole after the above activity.

Pull the drill pipe with the fish out of the hole at a slow speed and ask the driller to monitor
the weight of the drill pipe to make sure the fish is still engaged.
2. Once the tool is at the surface install the
C-plate immediately to prevent the fish
from falling into the well. Do not to attempt

Value is the maximum measurement range. The measurement data is invalid above this tension.
2
These figures are under investigation.
3
No safety factor applied.
4
Note that the SSIJ will bottom out at 900 lbf tension. The limit for compression is defined by the SMDR and is
dependant on the type of sonde used.
5
The EMM should be eccentralized with TLC stand-offs at 1 in less than bit size to obtain full compressional
resistance.
6
The HIT-A will be more prone to bending in large holes due to the small sonde cross section. In small holes
(<6 in) the compression rating can be increased up to 5000 lbs.
7
HRLT-B without centralizers = 1,800, with fin centralizers=3,600, with rigid centralizers=7,800 lb.
8
The compressional behavior of the MDT is very temperature and pressure dependent. Above 3,000 psi
confining (hydrostatic) pressure, the weakest points of the MDT are the hydraulic compensator housings as
found on the MRHY and MRPO. The RPQS is rated to 50,000 lbf in tension and 22,000 lbf in compression,
and the crystal pressure sensor is not affected by compression or tension acting on the housing. See the
“Environmental Effects on MDT Strength” table below.
9
These figures are calculated at 15,000 psi and 300 degF and assuming an 8-in hole. Note that this means
that the estimated tensile strength of the tool is reduced at lower confining (well) pressure.
10
Determined with a 1.5 safety factor.
11
These kits are only suitable for use with the USRS-A or B, to a maximum hole size of 9-5/8 in.

G Troubleshooting
Schlumberger might make recommendations based on experience procedures
and standards.

The Client is responsible for all decisions related to fishing operation.

G.1 Cable breaks while breaking weak point (after


fish is engaged)
Step Action
1. If the cable is broken at surface or rig floor, the cable will usually fall approximately 150 m
[500 ft] below the rotary table, depending on drillpipe size.
2. Pull the pipe out of hole and collect the cable on the way.

G.2 Cable breaks before the fish is engaged


(Fishing broken cable)
Step Action
1. Discuss the availability of a fishing spear by third party fishing company.

G.3 Spearhead cable shortens during descent


Step Action
1. Install an extension assembly above the spearhead to increase the distance from the rig
floor.
2. Add more cable using a double ended torpedo.

G.4 Dropped spearhead assembly


Step Action
1. Pull the drillpipe and collect the spearhead.
It might only be a few hundred feet below the rotary.
2. Lower the spearhead overshot assembly with the largest possible guide into the drillpipe.
3. Try again to connect to the spearhead.

G.5 Cannot confirm engagement


Step Action
1. Circulate to clean unwanted material.
2. Try to approach the fish again.
3. Make sure that there is the correct tension on the line.
4. Make sure that there is no slack on the cable.
5. POOH and make sure that the correct size of the grapple is used.
6. Break the weakpoint and use the largest possible cut-lip guide to catch the fish. (Open
Ended Fishing).

G.6 The stripping assembly hangs up or rubs on


the traveling block, top drive or rig structure
(monkey board)
Step Action
1. Use certified roller assembly to prevent cable rubbing. (Minimum diameter of 5 in) - Do not
use “Bicycle wheels”, and S-shaped pipe.
2. Use longest possible links/bails to make a distance between the travelling block and top of
pipe.
3. If the counterweight is sufficient for the rig up, use a 10-ft flexible wire rope, not the 18-ft
flexible wire rope. An adapter (5944924) is available.

G.7 ECRD cannot be released


Step Action
1. If fish engagement is confirmed, circulate through the blow out sub to try to washout the
cable. There is a risk of blowing the fish out of the grapple.
2. If cable cannot be POOH safely, do the Reverse Cut and Thread operation with the
Reverse Cut and Thread stripping assembly.

G.8 Well control issue during fishing operation


Step Action
1. If there is a cable, install the circulating sub, so the driller can control the well.
2. If the overshot is engaged on the fish, it will be difficult to control the well because of the
low circulation rate (only one small port on the blow out sub is available).
If the client wants to disengage the fish proceed with “Procedure to Release the fish”.

G.9 Drillpipe becomes stuck during fishing


operation
Step Action
1. If you have a cable, break the WP and pull the cable out of the hole. The driller can now
work the pipe. If the fish is engaged do not turn pipe – Counterclockwise turns will break
the grapple and clockwise turns will disengage the fish.
2. If you have keyseated cable and the pipe is stuck above the keyseated point, it is
necessary to stop and speak to the InTouch emergency helpdesk.
3. If there is no cable the driller can work the pipe. If the fish is engaged do not rotate pipe.

G.10 Tool string breaks into pieces from overpull


Step Action
1. Do an analysis of the OD profile of the fish and if the correct fishing kit or grapple is
available, continue with another fishing trip.
2. If not, speak to a professional fishing company.

G.11 Tool string does not come free and driller


wants to disengage from the fish

Note
There is a risk of breaking the grapple due to activities such as jarring, excessive
tension/compression cycles, and rotating the drill pipe while engaged with the
fish. If this happens the grapple will not be able to release from the fish. This
risk must be communicated to the client as Schlumberger cannot guarantee the
grapple will release downhole. Never rotate the pipe to the left, as you will break
the grapple control and will not be able to disengage from the fish. If you rotate
with a left-hand torque you may also unintentionally back off the pipe.

Step Action
1. Bump down on the tool string to take tension off the grapple.
2. Turn the pipe clockwise, and start pulling up slowly. Do not pull up more than 1-in for each
turn, because the grapple will close again and hold the tool.
3. If it is likely that the grapple continues to be engaged on the fish and the pipe is not
coming free, do the previous two steps and increase the number of turns for each inch of
pipe pulled up.
