Scheduling Personnel and Equipment

Requirements of the job

When determining the personnel and equipment requirements of the job,
consider previous jobs and possible complications of the job. You may
decide to obtain standby commitments for assets that might be required to
successfully complete the job if the operation does not proceed as initially
planned.

Contact information

The phone number of a contact person on the rig should be secured in case
of any delay or problem lining up the tools. Get good directions to the rig
or boat dock and give the company man a reasonable ETA.

Scheduling required equipment

step:

1-Submit the equipment requirements for the job to the customer’s
operator.

 2-Determine whether or not the rig has sufficient tools.
IF the rig does not have sufficient tools, THEN consider:
- modifying the program and re-submitting the equipment
requirements
- whether Weatherford tools are compatible with the fish and
fishing plan and are available for rental
- special ordering or designing tools.
Note: Consider the time required to design and/or order special
tools and deliver them to the job site.

3-Schedule the delivery of all required tools for the date when
fishing will begin.

Management on Location

Your responsibilities

When you arrive on the rig for a fishing job, you should:

1.  verify all the pertinent information with the company man and/or tool
   pusher
2.  check the rig’s equipment
3.  check the string figures
   During fishing operations, you will need to:
4.  maintain an accurate fish location
5.  maintain the tally book
6.  call in a daily report to the fishing supervisor.

Verifying information

Introduce yourself to the company man and verify all pertinent information
concerning the fish, well, and local conditions. Record the BHA and pipe in
the hole with the company man.
Note: The fishing tool coordinator should be consulted if the company man
does not agree with the Weatherford fishing supervisor’s suggested course
of action. Additionally, the company man must sign the resume when
Weatherford’s suggested course of action is refused.

Checking equipment

Follow the steps below when checking equipment before a fishing
operation.

steps : 

1-The fishing supervisor should personally caliper all tools upon
arrival on location. It is very important to be precise when
callipering tools.

2- Count all pipe on the location and compare with the company
man’s records.

3- Clean out the V door and mark the first joint of pipe on the rack.

4- Count and tie off all pipe in the derrick. The count on the surface
subtracted from the total on location should equal what is in the
hole.
