Reduce the cost of wellbore problems

Our wellbore obstruction removal systems and tools—with our enormous range of fishing knowledge—greatly reduce the cost of wellbore problems.

We invented many of the fishing, milling, cutting tools, specialty tools, and techniques used in cased hole, open hole and through-tubing. We continuously improve them. From smart-intervention tools to accessory tools that enhance performance, contact us when you need the right solution.

Our SMART™ intervention service—with our SENTIO™ downhole data acquisition tool —solves the serious problem of inadequate information about true downhole conditions. The service combines drilling optimization, real-time downhole measurements, and closed-loop process control to your intervention operations. Now, you can make informed, just-in-time decisions that can optimize well intervention operations and significantly reduce NPT and risk exposure.

Our proprietary milling technology is widely known for its performance. Our METAL MUNCHER™ carbide insert changed the fishing industry forever. This insert and its patented application for milling tools have increased penetration rates and mill life by as much as 1,000%.

Conventional fishing tools and systems include packer milling and retrieving, internal and external cutting, internal and external engagement, washover; basically, every fishing application. Regardless of what’s in your well, chances are we’ve removed it successfully.
