Swab Mandrel

Purpose

The Brace Tool swab mandrel is used to swab liquids from the wellbore in an attempt to have well flow under its own power.

Operation

Install desired swab cups to proper size mandrel and attach to toolstring.

Lower into wellbore and take note of fluid level. Once desired swab depth has been achieved, pull swab mandrel (and all fluid trapped above) to surface.

Repeat until well flows under its own power.

Precautions

Ensure the swab cups are replaced if worn or damaged, damage may occur from debris in wellbore.

Special attention should be paid if sand is suspected in the wellbore as this can seriously impede swabbing operations, The BT SAND SCREEN can be used in this application.
