OPERATIONS:
Drill Collar Severing Tools provide a quick and effective solution to sever heavyweight Drill Collar
Severing Tools provide a quick and effective solution to sever heavyweight drill pipe and drill collars.
These tools should be used when the drill pipe becomes stuck in the well or during plug and
abandonment (P & A) operations. The tool with the largest possible diameter capable of running in the
stuck pipe should be chosen to achieve maximum performance. Owen’s severing tools are to be shot
in the tool joint above the stuck point. It is also recommended that tension be applied to the tubing
prior to detonation of the Severing Tool to assist in the removal of stuck tubulars.

Drill Collar Severing Tools come standard with HMX explosive powder rated to 400°F (204° C) for
1 hour. Pellets are also available with HNS [500°F (260° C) - 1 hour] by special order, HNS det cord is
also required when ordering HNS pellets.

NOTES:
Severing tools are destructive and are expected to sever the pipe and leave large amounts
of debris in the wellbore. In the event that access may be required after detonation, this may
not be possible
