Fishing Tools
Fishing Tools in the oil and gas industry refer to specialized equipment used to retrieve lost or stuck objects from the wellbore during drilling, completion, or production operations. These objects can include parts of drilling equipment, casing, tubing, or other materials that may have been accidentally dropped, broken, or become lodged within the well.

Benefits of Fishing Tools
Cost-Effectiveness
The use of fishing tools reduces the need for expensive wellbore interventions or well abandonment by allowing operators to recover lost or stuck equipment.
Safety
Fishing tools are engineered to operate in challenging environments, ensuring that they can safely retrieve stuck objects without causing further complications or safety hazards.
Flexibility
Fishing tools come in many designs and configurations, offering flexibility to handle a wide variety of lost or stuck objects, whether they are drill pipe, tubing, or smaller debris.
Prevent Well Damage
Properly deployed fishing tools help prevent further damage to the wellbore and reduce the risk of damaging expensive downhole equipment.
Types of Fishing Tools:
- Fishing Reels: Fishing reels are used to manage and control the fishing tool string, particularly during operations where the fishing tool must be lowered into the wellbore for retrieval purposes.
- Scrapers: A scraper is a tool used to clean the inside of the wellbore or casing, especially when debris or stuck objects are present.
- Fishing Tools for Tubing & Casing: These specialized tools are designed to retrieve sections of tubing, casing, or other equipment that have been lost or stuck within the well.
- Latches & Spear Tools: Latches and spear tools are used to hook, grab, or latch onto broken or stuck equipment in the wellbore.
