Abstract
A method of recovering casing from a wellbore in which: a logging tool is run to an estimated stuck point of the casing through the central bore of the casing spear and casing cutter; the casing spear is attached to the casing and tension applied so that logging can be performed over a length at an estimated stuck point both with and without tension to provide the verified stuck point; and the casing cutter is positioned relative to this to cut the free casing; and the spear used to remove it. The method can be performed on a single trip. Embodiments include incorporating a packer to circulate fluid during casing cutting; a disconnect, anchor mechanism and motor to allow use of a motor to operate the cutter; and a Down Hole Power Tool with a method of establishing the required force to recover a length of stuck casing.
