Slickline Tools
They are designed to deliver a controlled upward impact load during wireline
operations. The closed hydraulic system within the jar makes it possible for the
jarring action to be controlled within a broad range, from a very light impact to
one of substantial force.
During normal operations, a controlled pull is applied to the wireline, which lifts
the top sub and mandrel upward, while the piston is momentarily held back by
the hydraulic fluid. This impeding action allows an adequate pull to be applied on
the line to achieve the required jarring intensity. When the piston passes from the
cylinder bore into the larger bypass bore, the fluid resistance is reduced, allowing
the mandrel to accelerate upwards and strike the middle body insert which
conveys the jarring force to the toolstring.
The jar is closed and reset for repeat operation by slacking off toolstring weight,
which telescopes the mandrel back into the tool. A spring loaded check valve
(valve plug) opens to allow oil to flow through the piston easily as the mandrel
moves downwards. A balance piston at the lower end of the middle body is
free to move up and down to compensate for the internal volume changes and
equalize internal and external pressures as the jar is operated.
Hunting Hydraulic Jars are available in various diameters and are supplied with
industry standard pin by box connections complete with fishing necks.
