Are You Choosing the Correct Drilling Jar?

It is crucial to select the correct drilling jar and placement for each well – a drilling jar is expected to work properly when stuck to avoid expensive fishing operations or a BHA loss downhole.

Correct OD selection, BHA placement, and tool specifications that meet or exceed your drilling requirements, cover the basic criteria to take into consideration when selecting a drilling jar. Below you will find the recommended ODs for various hole sizes:

Poor selection and placement will risk your drilling operations. At Cougar, we resolve the issue.
