Fishing in Petroleum Engineering In Petroleum Engineering, Drilling
Engineers use the term ‘Fishing’ to recover any objects accidentally lost/dropped in an oil/gas well
The ‘fish’ could be anything including drill-pipe, drill bits, cable, tools and junk.
‘Fishing’ requires ability to identify the ‘fish’, and design a retrieving tool to recover the fish (think rod, reel & hook! No bait required)

Steps in ‘Fishing’ Identify the fish and obtain information on
the size, dimensions & “latch on” characteristics.
Design or select an appropriate fishing tool Use tool selected to locate, latch and
retrieve fish Finally, as with fishing, be patient – trial and
error & improvement is required.

Activity - Time to go fishing!
Two wells Gusher #1 & Gusher#2 are being drilled in Million-Barrel Oil Field.
Both wells have ‘fish’ in them
Your task is to retrieve the fish and continue drilling so that you can produce your well first.
<- Gusher#1
Gusher#2 ->

Time to go fishing! Identify fish
Use Playdough ito create an“impression” block to identify fish

Time to go fishing! Select/design an appropriate fishing tool
based on fish identified

Time to go fishing
Insert fishing tool into well and try to retrieve ‘fish’

FISH ON !!

Fishing Challenge!Horizontal well fishing ! Retrieve the fish from a horizontal well!
Did you know?Horizontal wells in the Barnett Shale in North Texas are drilled ~7000’ deep and ~3000’ laterally!Horizontal wells in the Bakken Shale are drilled 10,000 ft (~ 2 miles) deep and 10,000 ft (~ 2 miles) laterally!

Being a Petroleum Engineer Petroleum Engineers have many sub-
specialities. Drilling Engineers drill for oil/gas. Reservoir Engineers calculate the amount
of oil/gas and the best way to produce the oil/gas.
Production Engineers produce & transport the oil/gas.
