The Free Point tool measures torque and stretch to accurately locate
where drillpipe, tubing, or casing is stuck or partially stuck.
Description
The Free Point Indicator is an electromechanical assembly designed to accurately measure
torque or stretch in harsh conditions. The basic Free Point tool assembly consists of bow spring
or magnet, upper and lower anchors, and a sensor section to determine stuck point. Additional
components that must be run with the Free Point tool assembly are: sinker bars to overcome the
holding ability of the anchors, a collar locator (CCL) to determine depth and a slack joint to
relieve weight above the tool assembly when at the correct depth for making a measurement.
Features
A wide range of tools are available for operations inside large diameter casings and small
diameter pipe sizes and restrictions
Most Sondex* Free Point tools can be run simultaneously with explosive string shot assemblies
Tool options available to 30,000 psi (206.8 MPa) operations on all types of wireline,
including nickel (sour service) wireline
