141 Devices, Systems and Methods for Equalizing Pressure in a Gas Well US12388211 2009-02-18 US20100206568A1 2010-08-19 Michael A. Dowling; Jason Kamphaus; Harryson Sukianto; Alain P. Dorel; Joseph Varkey
Devices, systems and methods for equalizing pressure in a gas well are provided. A jar device is coupled to a pump deployed in a gas well between areas of low pressure and high pressure. The jar device includes a mandrel and a no-go sleeve. A jarring tool is operated to transfer an axial force onto the jar device that is large enough to shear a shearable connection between the mandrel and no-go sleeve and thereby cause the mandrel to slide from a first position to a second position with respect to the no-go sleeve. A seal that seals between the no-go sleeve and mandrel when the mandrel is located in the first position is unsealed as a result of the movement of the mandrel and thereby fluid communication is allowed between the area of high pressure and low pressure. This allows for easier retrieval of the pump.
142 Jars for wellbore operations US11983979 2007-11-13 US07775280B2 2010-08-17 Dwight Rose
An example of an apparatus for jarring a wellbore tool from an obstruction includes four sub-assemblies in communication with three springs such that the springs may be compressed forcing the subassemblies to become adjacent to one another. When the springs are actuated, the sub-assembly units spring apart from one another force dislodging the lower most sub-assembly component from the obstruction.

The impact jar device includes a jarring portion for creating jarring impacts within a wellbore toolstring. The jarring portion is adjustable so that jarring forces of various levels can be produced. The jarring portion is adjusted in response to sensed wellbore conditions, such as the angle of deviation of the surrounding wellbore.
147 Downhole drill string having a collapsible subassembly and method of loosening a stuck drillstring US10521346 2003-07-10 US07299885B2 2007-11-27 Jeffery D. Baird
A method and apparatus for allowing a downhole drill string to be stuck at one location and continue to rotate above the stuck section. The apparatus provides a method for collapsing the stuck subassembly by reducing its outside diameter. Simultaneous with the subassembly collapse, a jarring action is initiated from within the drill string to further loosen the stuck sections. At the same time drilling fluid inside the string is allowed to circulate outside the string through a circulation sub. The fluid is forced around the stuck subassembly further increasing the likelihood that the subassembly will be freed.
148 Downhole resettable jar tool with axial passageway and multiple biasing means US10757254 2004-01-13 US07267176B2 2007-09-11 Raymond Dale Madden
A wireline jar tool delivers instrument packages into wellbores and retrieves tools when they get stuck. The jar has several stored spring chambers connected to accelerate an upper spring chamber away from a stuck lower carrier chamber that supports instrument packages. Wireline tension actuates the jarring action and then lowers a sinker bar for reset as many times as required to incrementally jar the un-stick fish uphole. The wire line connects to a conductor that extends inside the tool through a main operating shaft, release coupling, hammer and anvil, lost motion coupling, into the lower chamber where the end connects to the instruments for communication to the surface. A small wireline tension provides unexpected large impact forces.

An impact jar including a biasable member, an impactor and an impactee slidably coupled to the impactor. The impactor includes a first down-hole tool connector. The impactee includes a second down-hole tool connector distal from the first down-hole tool connector and a plurality of flexible coupling fingers. The biasable member is detachably engaged by the plurality of flexible coupling fingers in a pre-impact position and is configured to disengage the plurality of flexible coupling fingers in response to a tensile force applied across the first and second down-hole tool connectors reaching a predetermined quantity. The impactor and the impactee are configured to impact in response to the disengagement of the biasable member and the plurality of flexible coupling fingers. In one embodiment, the impact jar may be employed in either of e-line and slickline applications.

153 Jar with adjustable trigger load US10700702 2003-11-04 US06988551B2 2006-01-24 Robert W. Evans
A jar provided with an adjustable triggering load has a housing defining an anvil surface and a mandrel, movable relative to the housing under an applied load, defining a hammer surface to impact the anvil surface. A trigger mechanism for releasing the mandrel to cause the hammer surface to impact the anvil surface includes a trigger sleeve axially positioned within the housing and a collet that engages the mandrel during application of a load to the mandrel. The collet releases the mandrel to cause the hammer surface to impact the anvil surface upon being moved into registration with the trigger sleeve against the resistance of the spring disposed within the housing. The triggering load is adjusted by an adjustment mechanism carried by the housing and coupled to the trigger sleeve to selectively position the trigger sleeve within the housing in establishment of a required applied load in order for the collet to be moved against the spring resistance and into registration with the trigger sleeve to thereby release the mandrel and cause the hammer surface to impact the anvil surface.

160 Down hole jar tool US10143709 2002-05-08 US06725932B2 2004-04-27 Mark A. Taylor; Jeff L. Taylor
The down hole jar tool is a tool used to apply jarring forces to objects that may be obstructing the path of a down hole, or above-ground operation that requires a repetitive jarring action to dislodge or remove such objects. The tool is used by providing a linear input to a mandrel portion that draws back against a compressible unit of predetermined resistance until a releasing means abruptly releases the mandrel portion. The mandrel portion then rapidly moves in the direction of the linear input until it encounters a stationary anvil, which produces the desired jarring action. This tool may also be combined with accelerators and/or valves, as well as other tools, to create a more substantial jarring impact.
