Fishing was always good news for me mud logging. I would just get paid for an 84 hour week of playing gameboy and reading. The best one was when they lost the last 10 feet of drill string at the bottom of a 3000’ hole. After a week of fishing attempts, they said gently caress it and spent two or three more weeks drilling through the drill string and PDC bit.

Why didn't they just plug back with cement and go around? This was years ago and directional drilling was incredibly expensive voodoo magic? What kinda neat about a dropped string is that if it falls quite a long way, there's a good chance that it's going to be perfectly fine. If it's dropped a short ways, such as the length of a joint (9-14m) or the kelly it's almost guaranteed to be a corkscrew.

I’m guessing that it only fell a short distance because it wedged itself to gently caress.

Yeah I have no idea why they made those decisions but it was about 2013-2014 and it was a horizontal project that had landed the curve before I got there. IIRC they had some specialty bits to basically friction melt pieces of the metal off at high RPM. Lots of tripping for new bits and circulating.

wesleywillis posted:How does this work? Not 100% sure, no one has ever given me a solid answer. The running idea is that the pipe falling a long ways has time to make some sort of fluid cushion. The only time I have dealt with a dropped string, it was a bit, bit sub, 12 6.25" drill collars, 6 4.5" Hevi-Wate dp and 18 4.5" dp. They fell about 1000m and were fine once we got them out, which seems to be a lot of peoples experience. The Wiggly Wizard posted:Yeah I have no idea why they made those decisions but it was about 2013-2014 and it was a horizontal project that had landed the curve before I got there. Mills are what were usually used to do this.  They take forever and don't last. You usually just mill off a tool joint so you can get an overshot on easier. Now there are external cutters that do this is about half an hour. But if it was the last 10' of the string, that's most likely a mud motor. It still would have been quicker to hit it with the big gray eraser and go around. PathAsc posted:They're the reason I wear a bump cap, duh

Powershift posted:It's insanely hard work, too. The larger rigs run 3 joints at ~30 feet together for 90 foot drilling kilometers down vertically and kilometers horizontally and every time they need to change a tool or bit it all has to come out 90 feet at a time and then get run back in 90 feet at a time. In and out and in and out and in and out. They usually work 12 hours a day for 21 days on/7 days off, too. I understand vaguely what happened here has to be bad, but are there specifics for this one?

When they pulled the slips out it fell down the hole. all the way down the hole. You can see those stands are full of long dirty pipes. so it fell down a pretty deep hole. Based on the size of the rig, probably a $100,000 mistake. Pennies to the company but they're still gonna kick his rear end for it.

That was the bit. It was left in the table after being broken off. The bit breaker latch wasn't pinned. As the hands pulled the bit out the latch opened and down it went. If it went down upside down, it's staying down there. It would be un-fishable. It is considered bad practise to leave a bit in the table like that. Usually you would break the bit from the pipe it was attached to, leave it on quite a few threads, but able to be spun by hand. Hoist out of the table, put the hole cover on and spin the bit off on the floor. My guess from the hands reactions is that the stack was left completely open. We close the uppermost set of rams to catch something like this. Basically almost all the Drillers fault.

Ok, this may be a real dumb question, but why not send a bigass magnet down the hole after things?

You'd probably need a larger magnet than could find down that hole in order to grab a several thousand pound pipe.

A magnet strong enough to pull something big out is also strong enough to stick inside the last string of casing that was run. In fact, drill collars can magnetize enough to stick to the inside of the casing and prevent you from drilling out. We used to run junk baskets that were shaped to let metal junk to fall in, and they had magnets inside. No one runs them anymore unless they are milling a fish, and even then most people use ditch magnets in the shaker box.

All I know from drilling I learned from the movie Deepwater Horizon in which, spoiler alert, things related to drilling go tits up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOA8o0voTus Not the best movie ever mode, but the sound design in an IMAX room was fantastic.

I was running the sump on a transit rig off of Louisiana about 5 years ago and we had a new deck gang-- not just one guy, but literally all six were green as hell right out of Louisiana Tech and taking every single step via verbal instruction from the Deck Lead in the shack. We had a tipout scheduled for a Sunday (ugh) and our line list was tight, so of course I pull first bank because why not. Anyway, I'm four clicks into the green batch when the two deck jocks on shift freeze. I have the hoist arm pinning up the remotes and they're just... staring at the coil like loving cows. Turns out the Deck Lead went to the head without telling anyone, and left the Deck Sub in charge (he didn't know to key the mic and thought it was voice activated). The jocks had been hanging irrigation vent like goddamn siding for 15 minutes, waiting for the all-clear on a Findlay sprocket that never came. loving morons.
