In oil and gas drilling operations, unexpected challenges often occur, from stuck pipe and broken drill strings to debris blocking the borehole. When such issues arise, fishing tools become critical for restoring well integrity and minimizing downtime. At Progrynd, we provide advanced fishing tools designed to meet the toughest downhole conditions, ensuring safe and efficient well intervention operations.
What Are Fishing Tools?
Fishing tools are specialized downhole equipment used to retrieve lost, stuck, or broken objects from a wellbore. The process, known as fishing, is one of the most crucial aspects of drilling and workover operations. By using the right tool, operators can recover equipment quickly, reduce non-productive time (NPT), and avoid costly sidetracks.
Types of Fishing Tools We Provide
Progrynd offers a wide range of fishing solutions to meet the unique needs of drilling and completion projects.
- Overshots
- Designed to latch onto the outside of stuck or lost tubulars.
- Ideal for recovering drill pipe, casing, or tubing from the borehole.
- Spears
- Internal engagement tools that grip the inside diameter of tubulars.
- Effective for retrieving smaller diameter fish or broken pipe sections.
- Junk Mills & Washover Tools
- Used to mill or clean around stuck objects.
- Essential for removing debris, cement, and scale.
- Die Collars & Taper Taps
- Reliable solutions for engaging the top end of stuck fish.
- Commonly used for broken pipe recovery.
- Fishing Magnets
- Strong magnets designed to retrieve small metallic debris such as bearings, slips, or bit fragments.
- Cutting & Milling Tools
- Designed to cut tubulars, drill collars, or casing when recovery is not possible.
- Helps prepare the wellbore for sidetracking or plugging operations.
