What this simple formula does is set the rule of time. It does not address the probability of success or the risk associated with failure. It is critical to address the probability of success and the cost of failure in the decision process before starting a fishing job.

Stuck Pipe Question # 1 Was the pipe moving when it became stuck? YES or NO YES What direction was the pipe moving?
UP Keyseat Sticking, Under Gauge Hole, Differential Sticking DOWN - Under Gauge Hole, Differential Sticking
NO - ( There is no change in hydraulic properties.) Differential Sticking NO ( with a change in hydraulic properties, reduced flow, higher
pressures or both) Sloughing Hole

Stuck Pipe Question # 2 Are the hydraulic properties the same or different than before the pipe became stuck? YES or NO Yes Differential Sticking, Keyseat Sticking, Mechanical Sticking No Well Bore Geometry Sloughing Hole, Under Gauge Hole Stuck Pipe Question # 3 Have you done a manual stretch calculation to estimate where you are stuck?
Whenever pipe becomes stuck, always calculate the estimated depth at which the pipe is stuck by measuring the stretch in the stuck pipe at a given pull over string weight. My favorite formula is as follows: (2208.5) x (nom. wt. of tube in pounds per foot) = the over pull necessary to induce 3 of stretch per 1,000 of free pipe.
Page 4
The stretch calculation listed above comes from the McCullough Tool Company and is over fifty years old. It includes the tool joint area. If you have coil tubing, wire line, or flush joint pipe, use 3 of stretch per 1,000 of free pipe and it will work very well.
Buoyancy - Do you include or exclude the effect of buoyancy in the manual stretch calculation?

A pipe recovery log or stuck pipe log is actually a single receiver cement bond log. A pipe recovery log can be extremely valuable in planning the fishing job because it gives us information about the well situation below the stuck point. A pipe recovery log is best suited for open hole use but can be used in cased hole. Pipe recovery logs do not work well in horizontal wells in the lateral.

Differential Sticking
drilling operations worldwide.
is a major problem in
Differential Sticking
The most common cause of differential sticking is thick filter cake across a permeable zone.
Preventive Action
Reduce wall contact with B.H.A. using spiral drill collars, H.W.D.P., and stabilizers. Maintain minimum mud weight. Daily short wiper trips when hole drag is observed. Keep drill string moving. Consider rotating drill string while standing back pipe or picking up a stand or single when making a connection.
Spotting Agents
Local knowledge is critical as to what spotting agents work in a geographic area, and what is the average time that a spotting agent needs in order to free the stuck pipe. If you choose to spot oil, diesel, or Black Magic, pump enough to cover the B.H.A. and be able to pump barrel every hour while waiting for the pipe to come free.

Page 15
Key Seat Sticking A key seat occurs when drill pipe in tension wears a slot (key
seat) in the wall of a hole during drilling operations. This happens when a well deviates from true vertical, controlled or not controlled.
Preventive Action
When it becomes evident that a key seat is forming, wipe it out with a key seat wiper or string reamer before it sticks your drill string.
Recommended Procedure
Surface Jars DO NOT hit down with surface jars at a setting higher than the weight of the available free pipe or the rebound will stick the pipe tighter. Back-off Leave a minimum of two joints of free pipe above the stuck point to insure that the top of the fish will be above the top of the key seat. Jarring Option Screw-in with jarring assembly with enough drill collars to effectively jar down. Wash-Over - Typically a short interval to washover.

Cemented Sticking
When pipe is cemented in place, jarring is not an option except on a very short section of pipe. Recommended Procedure Open HoleCemented in pipe can usually be washed-over if economics will allow it. Cased Hole Wash-over will be a problem in cased hole unless the pipe being washed-over is centralized in the hole (and it almost never is). During wash-over, when the pipe being washed-over is not centralized, a pinch point will be reached where either the wash pipe will simply not make any more progress at all, the wash pipe will become stuck, or the well side-tracked. Selecting a very aggressive mill and milling up pipe may be the best option. If a pilot mill is selected, the pilot must be small enough O.D. to allow the blades to sweep the hole from side to side where the pipe being milled is not centralized.
Page 19
Mechanical Sticking
Mechanical sticking occurs due to junk or a foreign object in the hole. Circulation is usually nor affected.
Recommended Procedure
Free point and part pipe at appropriate place. Run attachment tool with jarring assembly that will enable you to effectively jar both up and down.

Preferred method in alphabetical order if fishing is an option. . Back-off ( with string shot explosive) . Chemical Cut . Jet Cut . Mechanical Cut ( Internal) . Split Shot If side-track is the option, a Severing Tool can be run. Back-off ( with string shot explosive)
Prior to putting in left hand torque, the pipe to be backed-off should be tightened by putting in right hand torque by turning the pipe to the right. Do not exceed make-up torque. When you put in the right hand torque, count the rounds, stopping when make-up torque is reached. Reciprocate the pipe which will work the torque down hole to the stuck point. Release the torque slowly counting the rounds that you get back. When you get the same number of rounds back that you put in, the pipe is properly tightened and is ready to put in the left hand torque The rule-of-thumb for how many rounds to the left is as follows; Drill Pipe - - Rounds to left per 1,000 of free pipe Tubing - 1 Round to left per 1,000 of free pipe Fire the shot with the string shot rod across the connection to be broken. Checking the break After the initial break is made to the left, pull the collar locator up hole two connections plus ten feet and stop . Make a note of what depth the second connection is. Finish unscrewing the pipe and pick up the backed-off pipe five feet. The connection below the collar locator should have moved up the hole five feet. Check this with the collar locator. Do not go lower than the break with the wire line tools . Trip out with wire line tools. Trip out of hole with backed-off pipe.

Severing Tool
. The severing tool usually eliminates all fishing options. It should be use when side track or P&A is the next option. . Open Hole Use Only . When attempting to sever pipe not drill collars, fire the severing tool in the tool joint or coupling. When a severing tool is fired in the tube of pipe it usually will balloon and rail spilt the tube but not part the pipe. The severing tool needs the mass of a drill collar or tool joint in order to work properly. Picture of a Severing Tool

If the fish top has an O.D. change from larger on top and smaller below and is short enough to pass above the grapple inside the overshot, a STOP must be run or the overshot will not release. A grapple with a built in STOP reduces the overshot strength by an average of 35% because it reduces grapple contact area on the fish.

Another way of looking at the rule of thumb is one drill collar for each O.D. inch of the jars that are being run for the minimum. The maximum would be two drill collars per O.D. inch of the jars being run.
This Rule of Thumb should only be used when the jars are placed two joints or less from the stuck point. If you are outside of this two joint window you need to run a jar placement program in order to know how many drill collars to run.

Jarring Operations How long are you going to jar assuming there is no movement either up or down ?
Chevron data based their jarring operations world wide. Their conclusion based on the data base was with no progress in moving the fish up or down the maximum time to jar is 4 5 hours. What I wish Chevron would have done would be to separate cased from open hole and in my opinion maximum time to jar would be: Cased Hole (Mechanically stuck major portion of time.) Jarring time - 2-3 Hours Open Hole ( Many different sticking mechanisms .) Jarring time 10 12 Hours The key words in the data base from Chevron are NO MOVEMENT. If you are moving the fish at all either up or down, be patient, keep doing what is working and you can almost always work the fish out of the hole.

2. Multiplier ( Drill Collars or H.W.D.P. ) If you do not run drill collars or H.W.D.P. ,the multiplier is less than one.
3. Transition Area a. The change in mass from drill collars/HWDP to pipe is an acceptable transition area. NOV Bowen calls this a reflective area. b. A Jar Accelerator/Booster/Energizer/Intensifier is the most effective and efficient transition or reflective area.

. Open Hole You must come up with a plan that enables you to fish the well
in a time frame that is economic. If it is necessary to run more wash pipe than seems prudent for you well configuration, then you may want to go to side-track without ever starting the wash over operation.

Casing Failures
Whenever you have a casing failure it is critical to identify the cause of the failure. Tools available to diagnose type of casing failure Impression Block An impression block can be extremely helpful in diagnosing what type of casing failure has occurred in you well. Video Camera If well conditions will allow for a camera run it will also be extremely valuable in diagnosing the type of casing failure has occurred in you well.

Fishing Logging Tools Cut & Strip Method (Cable Guide Assembly )

Fishing Logging Tools Cut & Strip Method (Cable Guide Assembly)
If a logging tool becomes stuck in open hole, do not pull out of the rope socket. It is much safer to cut the electric line at the surface and strip over the e-line using it to guide the overshot to the logging tool. Start the process by pulling a strain on the e-line equal to the weight of the line in the hole. Install a T-bar clamp on the e-line. Set the T-bar on the rotary table. Cut the eline at least ten feet from the clamp plus any additional amount that you deem necessary for well conditions. Install spear point rope socket on the lower part of the e-line. Feed e-line through both upper and lower pulleys. Place upper pulley in derrick above the derrick mans monkey board and the lower pulley anchored at the rig floor. Install the rope socket, weight bars or weight cable, and spearhead overshot on the upper part of the e-line. Latch the spearhead overshot onto the spear point. Pull test the rope sockets to the maximum that will be pulled on the e-line before removing the T-bar clamp. Make up a Series 150 overshot with appropriate sized grapple with doughnut guide on the bottom of the first stand of drill pipe to be run. I prefer to run an upper extension and fish the logging tool body rather than a fishing neck. The derrick man will place the spear point overshot assembly in the top of the drill pipe stand. The e-line truck will lower the spear point overshot until it is hanging below the Series 150 overshot. Latch the spear point overshot onto the spear point rope socket . Line weight is picked up until the T-bar clamp is picked up above the rotary table. The T-bar clamp is removed, the Series 150 overshot is slowly lowered into the hole and the stripping job has begun. An option to consider after one stand or one single joint of is run in the hole is to install a larger O.D. sucker rod box below the spear point rope socket on the lower part of the electric line cable. The O.D. of the box should be large enough that it will not go through the top sub of the overshot being used to catch the logging tool. If necessary a reduced I.D. sub can be placed on top of the overshot that will stop the sucker rod box from passing. The purpose of this No-Go is to prevent the stripping tools from falling out of the drill pipe if something goes awry in the strip over process and the lower portion of the wire line is dropped. Once the lower overshot has engaged the logging tool, I personally prefer to pull the spearhead overshot high enough above the rotary table that the t-bar clamp can be installed on the lower portion of the wire line and then use the rig blocks to pull out of the rope socket at the logging tool. The company person in charge of the rig will make the decision as whither to pull out of the rope socket with the t-bar clamp and the rig blocks or strip or not.
