The single-trip Casing Recovery System combines an integral tension set packer and a hydraulically activated spear to eliminate the need for multiple trips to cut and remove a targeted piece of casing. The Internal Pressure Pipe Cutter makes use of pump pressure to actuate three crushed carbide dressed knives to cut single or multiple casing strings. The system is rotary driven and can be deployed to either run and set a bridge plug or dress a cement plug prior to cutting and recovery of the casing.
• Integral tension set packer and hydraulically activated spear
• Anchored centralization allows for multiple cuts
• Designed to cut in tension and verify the cut with a simple pick-up operation
• Spear will set in casing without having to trip to surface when used in a tapered string
• Eliminates swarf accumulation at surface, protecting sensitive well control equipment
• Allows for annulus circulation around the cut casing
• Range of pipe cutter sizes for application in casing ranges from 6.000 – 36.000 in. (152.4 – 914.4 mm)
• Cement plug dressing or mechanical bridge plug setting capability in one trip
