Running Tools
RUNNING TOOLS were designed primarily to set or position downhole flow controls and devices to a predetermined depth in the well by Wireline methods.
In general, these RUNNING TOOLS are attached to these devices by means of the SHEAR PINS, and other methods. When desired setting depth has been reached, manipulation of the Wireline Tool String places the devices in the SET or LOCKED position; and releases from the device by cutting the shear pin or pins which have held the running tool to the device.
The following pages will list some of the most common RUNNINGTOOL types offered by Rebco. The RUNNING TOOL names are often associated with the names for the devices used.
