Downhole magnet
A downhole magnet is a tool used in the oil and gas industry to retrieve ferromagnetic (magnetically attracted) objects from a well
A downhole magnet is a tool used in the oil and gas industry to retrieve ferromagnetic (magnetically attracted) objects from a well
These objects may be accidentally dropped downhole or be the remains of broken equipment.
Purpose:
- Retrieving dropped tools: The primary purpose is to retrieve drill bits, centralizers, and cutters, tubing components, valve parts, wire, chips, nuts, bolts, and other metal objects from the well.
- Well cleaning: Removing metal chips, scale, and other contaminants generated during drilling, workover, or well operation. This is especially important for maintaining well productivity and preventing damage to downhole equipment.
- Inspection: Magnets can be used to collect samples of metal chips to analyze equipment wear and identify potential problems.
Time and Cost Savings: Retrieving fallen objects using a downhole magnet is significantly faster and less expensive than alternative methods
Maintaining Well Integrity: Unlike methods requiring drilling out, using a magnet avoids damage to the casing and other well equipment
Accident Prevention: Timely retrieval of fallen objects prevents them from moving further downhole and damaging other equipment
