Tool String
A Wireline Tool String is made up of set Tools (Work String) to do specific Wireline operations down-hole. The Tools are attached to the Wire by means of a Rope Socket.
Below the Rope Socket a Swivel Joint is placed to avoid “torsion” or twisting of the Wire.
In order to overcome the friction of the Stuffing Box packing and well pressures, Stem is used as weight to lower the tool string down hole. The weight of the stem is also used to generate impact force when performing jarring action. The Jars enable the impact of the tool string in either direction, up or down, against any encountered obstruction down hole.
To intensify an impact force to the tool string, an Accelerator can be used. Finally, to obtain the flexibility to the tool string, a Knuckle Joint is placed above the selected tool to do a specific function as needed.
The following links list a selection of Tools which are used in a Typical Tool String; chosen by the Operator to suit the work to be performed.
Rebco can supply Tool Strings from 3/8” to 2 1/2” diameters, with Threaded Connections as well as QLS (Quick Lock System), Rebco Type ‘RQLS’ and/or Rebco Type ‘RQLD’ Connections.
