How JOT Oilfield Services Enhances Downhole Fishing Operations

Downhole Fishing Operations

In the demanding world of oil and gas operations, equipment failures and lost tools downhole are inevitable challenges that can bring production to a halt and result in significant financial losses. When these critical situations arise, having access to effective fishing tools and technical expertise becomes essential for maintaining operational efficiency.
JOT Oilfield Services LLC has established itself as a leading provider of comprehensive fishing solutions across UAE, Oman, and Saudi Arabia, helping operators overcome complex downhole challenges.

The Critical Nature of Downhole Fishing Operations

Downhole fishing refers to the specialized process of recovering lost or stuck equipment from a wellbore. These operations are among the most challenging in the oil and gas industry, often requiring a combination of specialized tools, technical knowledge, and practical experience. The success of fishing operations directly impacts:

Rig downtime and associated costs
Project timelines and budgetary considerations
Well integrity and future production potential
Health, safety, and environmental risks

JOT’s Comprehensive Fishing Tool Inventory

At the core of JOT’s fishing capabilities is our extensive inventory of specialized tools designed to address virtually any downhole fishing challenge:

External Catch Tools
Our selection includes a variety of tools designed to engage the outside of the fish, including different types of overshots, safety joints, and releasing spears. These tools are essential when external engagement is the preferred recovery method.

Internal Catch Tools
For situations where internal engagement is more appropriate, we provide fishing spears, screw-in subs, taper taps, and die collars. These tools are configured to securely grip the inside of tubular fish for effective retrieval.

Junk baskets for small debris recovery
