Wireline Spear – Downhole Fishing Tool – 1. 1/2”, 1 3/4", 2 1/4”, 2 3/4", 3 1/2” – ISO 9001:2015
The Wireline Spear is a downhole tool used in oil and gas wells to retrieve lost, broken, or compacted wireline that cannot be engaged with a standard two-prong wireline grab. It is designed for fishing operations where the wireline has become badly balled up or tightly compacted, situations where conventional pronged grabs are ineffective.
The tool is deployed on a wireline and guided down the wellbore under its own weight. Its central mandrel is surrounded by upward-pointing barbs or slips that penetrate and anchor into the wireline. When engaged, these barbs provide a secure grip on the wire, allowing the tool and wire to be retrieved to the surface.
The Wireline Spear is designed for maximum penetration into tightly balled or compacted wire. Its barbs ensure engagement even when the wire is severely entangled. Because the Wireline Spear is effectively non-releasable, it is typically run with a disconnect arrangement above the tool. This allows the assembly to be released if the wire cannot be recovered fully, preventing the tool from becoming stuck in the wellbore.
The tool is available in sizes from 1.5” to 3.5”, with a maximum outside diameter of 1.500” to 3.500” and a fishing neck O.D. of 1.375” to 2.312”. It connects to the wireline through a top connection ranging from 15/16 – 10 UN to 1-1/16 – 10 UN and can retrieve wire diameters from 0.50” to 3.50”.
The Wireline Spear is constructed from steel to withstand downhole mechanical stresses and pressures.

Solar Panel capable of providing power to typical industrial monitoring and control systems
A solar panel, or solar module, is one component of a photovoltaic system. They are constructed out of a series of photovoltaic cells arranged into a panel. They come in a variety of rectangular shapes and are installed in combination to generate electricity. Solar panels are comprised of several individual solar cells which are themselves composed of layers of silicon, phosphorous (which provides the negative charge), and boron (which provides the positive charge). Solar panels absorb the photons and in doing so initiate an electric current. The resulting energy generated from photons striking the surface of the solar panel allows electrons to be knocked out of their atomic orbits and released into the electric field generated by the solar cells which then pull these free electrons into a directional current. This entire process is known as the Photovoltaic Effect. View Details
The Alligator Grab is a wireline fishing tool used to catch and retrieve loose or broken objects from inside an oil or gas wellbore. It has spring-loaded, serrated jaws that can be adjusted before use to set the right amount of grip for the object being retrieved.

Electrical Submersible Pump Packer
A downhole Electric Submersible Pump (ESP) Packer for a 9 5/8” casing is a critical component in artificial lift systems, designed to provide a secure, pressure-tight seal between the tubing and casing while allowing the electrical cable to pass through to the ESP. Here’s how it works:
1. Hydraulic-Set, Dual-Bore Design
This single-mandrel, dual-bore packer is hydraulically set by applying fluid pressure through the tubing. This eliminates the need for mechanical manipulation, making it an effective choice for deviated or high-angle wells where mechanical setting might be challenging.
• The dual-bore design incorporates a dedicated pass-through bore, allowing the power cable to run from the surface, through the packer, and down to the ESP below.
• This configuration enables uninterrupted power delivery to the pump while maintaining zonal isolation in the wellbore.
2. Bi-Directional Slip System for Secure Anchoring
Once hydraulic pressure is applied, the case-carburized bi-directional slips engage against the casing wall.
• These slips are hardened to withstand high loads and anchor the packer firmly in place to resist both upward and downward forces caused by reservoir pressure fluctuations and ESP-induced pressure differentials.
• This ensures that the packer remains securely in position, preventing unintended movement during production or shutdown cycles.
3. Versatile Release and Retrieval Mechanism
When it’s time to retrieve or replace the ESP system, the packer features a flexible release system:
• The standard retrieval method involves applying a straight upward pull on the tubing, which disengages the slips and allows the packer to be removed.
• Alternatively, for applications where higher retrieval forces might be impractical, a cut-to-release option is available, enabling efficient removal in more challenging well conditions.
Operational Advantages
• Reliability in High-Load Applications: Designed to handle the extreme downhole conditions associated with ESP operations, including high fluid flow rates and pressure fluctuations.
• Adaptability to Various Completion Designs: The dual-bore configuration accommodates different ESP setups and cable-routing requirements.
• Efficiency in ESP Deployment: By securely isolating production zones while allowing cable pass-through, the packer streamlines the ESP installation process and enhances system integrity.
This ESP packer plays a vital role in ensuring reliable artificial lift performance, particularly in deep or high-pressure wells where stable downhole conditions are essential for maximizing production efficiency.

Wireline Retrievable FRN 4.5 inch SCSSSV
The FRN wireline-retrievable flapper valve, which is normally closed, is held open by hydraulic control pressure from the surface. The valve operates on a hydraulic-piston principle. To open, tubing pressure slightly higher than the well pressure below the closed flapper is applied. Once well pressure is equalized across the closed flapper, hydraulic pressure is applied to the piston, which pushes the flapper open. The flapper hinge assembly is designed so the force on the piston is not applied directly on the hinge pin. Upon loss of hydraulic pressure in the control line, the valve's large spring serves to lift the hydrostatic head of the control fluid. The flapper spring is designed to close the valve when the piston moves up past the flapper. Opening Prong Nose Seal The FRN valve uses the valve housing as the downstop for the opening prong. This metal-to-metal (MTM) interface is designed to prevent flow from passing between the valve housing and opening prong. The MTM interface isolates the flapper and seat from fluid flow while the valve is open. This design creates an MTM interface with the full force exerted by the hydraulic piston, minus the spring compression force, holding the two metal faces in contact. Radius of Curvature at Flow Entrance Halliburton conducted a study with various curvatures on the entrance to the valve. The study tested abrasive fluids flowing through different test subs and examined the resulting wear patterns. As a result, an optimum radius of curvature was determined and implemented on the valve housings of all wireline retrievable safety valves. Applications » New completions » Deep set » High pressure Features » High-strength rod-piston actuation » Non-equalizing flapper closure » Solid construction flapper made from bar stock » Spherical radius seat on flapper improves seal reliability » Sealing and seating surfaces are out of flow path of well production when valve is in open position » Designed for easy field servicing *information referenced from supplier catalog.
