Hydraulic Tubing End Locator

Product Code: WBI PDS 0005

The Hydraulic Tubing End Locator (TEL) gives the operator the ability to correlate toolstring depth by locating on either the tubing entry guide or a nipple profile within the wellbore. As the tool is hydraulically operated, it can be functioned multiple times to ensure of accurate depth correlation.

Flow through the tool creates the required hydraulic pressure to activate the locating arms. An overpull will be observed when the tool is pulled through a restriction such as a nipple profile or when re-entering the production tubing. The locating arms will collapse when a predetermined force is applied. The pull force required is variable depending on pump rate and pressure.

The locating arms will retract to the tool OD when flow through the tool is stopped. A safety shear release feature is incorporated in the unlikely event that the spring does not fully retract the locating arms or can also be used to de-activate the tool when it is no longer required.

Features:

  • Short compact design.
  • Wide tag range for each tool.
  • Simple adjustment for tubing or nipple profile size.
  • Reliable, repeatable operation.
  • Emergency shear-out feature.
  • Variable nozzle sizes and shear ratings.
