Abstract
A one trip method of cleaning a portion of the borehole and then setting a tool such as a packer or a bridge plug locates the cleanup tools above the plug with a ported sub to allow circulation of loosened debris. The debris is directed uphole from above the plug and does not have to pass around the sealing element of the plug or through bypass ports in the plug body. The plug is then positioned in the cleaned portion and set. The cleaning tools are released from the set plug and brought to the surface. These tools could be used to clean the portion of the borehole where the tool is set or clean the entire section above the tool on the trip out of the borehole. Cleaning tools can be filter, scrapers both fixed and movable, magnets, brushes and associated tools that centralize the assembly for more effective operation.
