Tubing recovery by vessel crane
11 September 2020Has anyone in the community fished and recovered severed tubing open water from a vessel using its Active Heave Compensated crane wire. (Or slickline or E-line)
The top of the fish would be in good condition and mechanically severed by E-line across the tube. The 5-1/2" tubing itself would be up to 600m long, with the water depth similar to that. The TOF should be just below the wellhead and will have a control line for the SSSV associated with it.
We're interested in the success or otherwise of the operation and what tooling was used, eg: overshot, spear, etc.
The intention is to have pulled the tubing hanger with the tree.
Thanx
