Wire Book For Slickline

The document provides information to calculate the depth at which a wire broke during a fishing operation. It gives the plug depth, odometer reading when recovered, rig equipment lengths, tubing and wire sizes, and tool string length. The summary is: 1) The depth the wire broke was 6,367 feet below the rotary table, calculated by subtracting the odometer reading and rig equipment lengths from the plug depth. 2) 6,363 feet of wire was in the hole when it broke, calculated by adding the odometer reading and rig equipment lengths. 3) For 3-1/2" tubing, the expected wire fallback is 15 feet per 1,000 feet run, according to

FISHING

(Broken Wire Calculations)

You are trying to retrieve a plug when the wire parts. The
following information is available.

Plug set @ 12730 ft


Reading on odometer when recovered to counter head = 6248 ft
Distance from winch to Well Head hay pulley = 75 ft
Rig up height = 30 ft
Tubing size = 3 ½”
Wire size = 0.108 “
Tool String = 20Ft

Questions:
1) The depth below the rotary table that the wire broke?
12730’- 6248’ = 6482’ or 6248’ + 75’ + 30’ + 10’ = 6363’
6482’- 115’ = 6367’ 12730’ – 6363’ = 6367’

2) How many feet of wire lost in hole?


6248’ + 75’ + 30’ + 10’ = 6363’

3) The amount of fallback for this size of wire in Tbg 3 1/2”?


15ft per 1000ft (You can check in the Manufacturer Manual)

4) Total wire fallback?


(6363’ x 15’) : 1000’ = 95.44’

5) The depth below the rotary table you expect to


find the top of wire?

6367 + 95.44’ = 6462’


or
Depth of tool when wire broke – (total wire in hole – wire fall) =
12730’ - (6363’- 95.44’) = 6462’
