A rule of thumb commonly used to determine the weight of a solid steel stem is:
Stem OD2 x 8/3 = weight lbm/ft
H2 S
10 PPM(TLV) threshold limit value-8hrs/day
15 PPM: 15 mins/day
100 PPM: kills smell sense.
Stem weight:
Stem OD2 X 8/3 = weight Lbs/ft
11/2”= 6 lb/ft
17/8” = 9.375 lbs
21/8” = 12.040 lbs
21/2” = 16.660 lbs
Safety valves:
To be sure that any safety valve is fully open remember that:
Valve Opening Pressure + Final shut in Pressure + 500 OTIS BOWEN
SB 1.5” 2” 2.5” 3”
NOTE: The shear pin in shear down tools is smaller than the equivalent in shear up tools.
D plugs(OTIS):
D plugs (DW/DD)hold pressure from below(W lock+D equalizing bottom) and D lock /same D
collar stop+ D equalizing bottom.(both uses prong to shear disc for equalizing )
Xx & PX holds pressure from both sides
N testing tool hold pressure from above .

OK-1 to OK-6 : for 1” OD GLV on BK-2 /BK latch and JK running tool, KBMG/KBUG spm.
OM-1 Series : for 1-1/2” GLV on RK/RK-1(no O-ring) latch and RK-1 running tool, MMG spm.
Orientation sleeve: positions the kickover tool ‘to kick’ into the pocket when pulling upwards.
Tool Discriminator(Deflector):ensures the tools of large OD do not hang up in the SPM.
1” GLV pulling neck 0.875” use 1-1/4” JDC pulling tool (set in SPM KB&KBG)and running neck

1-1/2” GLV pulling neck 1-3/16” ( 1.187”) use 1-5/8” JDC or 1-1/2” SB (set in SPM
MMG&MMGEC) and running neck 0.937” &spacer length 4-3/4”
Accelerator: is installed below the rope socket to create optimum upward jarring when jar up.
Is used in shallow depths, less than 300m.
To determine the blind box dia. to pass thru wire to cut at rope socket with wire cut:
Td – D/2 + d/2 = blind box diameter
Td = Tbg. dia./ D=Rope socket dia./d=wire dia.
GO-Devil cutter length is depend on well content :
Long cutter: in heavy oil / Short cutter: in light fluid
Expansion joint/telescoping traveling joint: are installed for thermal expansion of Tbg.
Grade: indicates the strength and type of steel used to make the Tbg. as J-55/C-75/L-80 the lower
the number the softer the steel.
fire triangle:
Flammable Material.
Oxygen.
Heat enough to raise the fire
Stuffing boxes: all sizes of slick line
To seal around the wire at the upper end of lubricator during wireline operations.
Packing nut is used to increase the compression force on the pkg. as they wear.
The sheave moves 360º free movement.
Sheave guard is designed to trap wire which breaks on surface before it drops in down hole.
The injection port is used for:
-to inject glycol or methanol when freezing
-inject inhibitors to protect the wire from corrosive gases as H2 S.
-to activate BOP plunger if not sealed.
The rated pressures are 5000,10,000 and higher if required.
The stuffing box is the same but these sizes changed:
-upper gland
-lower gland
-sheave diameter (10” f/0.092” wire and 15” f/0.108” wire)
W/L units:
50 hrs change engine oil
500 hrs change hyd. Oil
150 hrs. adjust drive chain and grease hyd. Motor.
150 hrs. to change 0.108” wire
150-200 hrs. to change 3/16” braided line.
What is the differential pressure between the annulus and Tbg. at SSD at depth 8200-ft?
- The tbg/csg annulus is filled with a 10.29 ppg brine.
- CITHP IS 600 PSI.
- Gas specific gravity is 0.6 from 4000 ft.
- Oil gravity is 32 API from 4000 to 12000 ft.
solution
HP of brine in Ann. @ SSD:
= 0.052 X density X true vertical depth
= 0.052 X 10.29 X 8200 = 4387 psi
“A” probe is used to pull “S” locks to retract the upper facing keys when pulling.
“A” shank is used to run “S” locks to retract the down facing keys when running.
It’s function is basically a prong carrier to center and limit the penetration of a wireline prong
during equalizing operation. It is provided by external fluting to avoid tools blown up.

“A” Spear: Baker pulling tool to pull out removable seating nipple or model “K-2” straddle pack
off.
Accelerators:
-It is installed immediately below rope socket, used at shallow depths i.e less than 300 m. the
spring replaces the stretch of the wireline which exists when jarring deep.
-Reduce the shock loading at the rope socket and cause the stem to accelerate faster when the
hyd. Jars go off. This create a more effective impact.
Circle:
Rule of Thumb: for finding the fill up volume of any size pipe is the inside diameter squared equals
barrels per 1000 ft
ID2 = bbls / 1000 ft
Wire Stretch:
F = STRETCH FACTOR(inches/feet/Lbs)
Wt = weight of toolstring (Lbs)
W1 = weight of wireline in well(Lbs)
L = length of line in well (ft)
SSJ tool:
It is a double shear down adapter is designed to be added on "S" series running / pulling tool
when a 'J' (long reach) core is fitted.
SSJ is the correct running tool for the 'N' ,'Q' , selective testing tool and PX test tool because:
i- the long reach core permits the 'dart' ( fishing neck) of the test tool to float upwards of
the scaling seal to provide fluid bypass. This is essential to permit the test tool to pass
through the nipple seal bores of the same size as packing.
ii- Downward jarring force is between the skirt and top sub of the test tool, and not
absorbed against the dart or seal surface.
- "SSJ" tool to be sheared by jarring downwards on EITHER the core or skirt. The core SB or
SS tools must have contact to enable them in to be sheared.
- it is easier to repin and can also be added to "s" tools with "B" and "s" cores i.e ssb or sss.
Important: shear pin must be removed from pulling tool and if left will prevent the tool from
shearing.

Pull with GR plus pulling prong with a brass tip.

use 'w' running tool to run and 'RB' + equalizing prong to pull out.
Collar locks hold pressure from above and below and set in Eu and Nu tbg. , not set in new
vam or hydril because there are no collar recess, run with 'D' running tool and pull with GRL
+ equalizing prong.
