Challenge:

Due to Covid restrictions face-to-face interactions between personnel on the 107 Jack-up drilling rig and the Wandoo platform being worked over was not authorised

Solution:

To fish the dropped object offline via the 107 and down to the Wandoo B platform using and an inverted sheave arrangement while the rig continued drilling the sister conductor hole.

Results:

The CCI slickline team and equipment were mobilized immediately to the rig and set up an inverted 3 sheave rig up solution. We were able to run a 7” HD fishing magnet from the 107 down to the Wandoo platform, underneath the drilling BOP and retrieve the dropped within 3 hours of commencing rig up. Leaving a very happy drill crew
