Useful calculations during fishing

Wireline fallback % = ft per 100 ft of wire left in hole. Click a cell to use it.
Source: RIGTRAIN 2002 Rev 1, Well Calculations, Table 3 "Wire fall estimation" (same top-of-wire formula as this sheet). 0.092" in 2 3/8" and 4 1/2" from the Hunting Wireline Equipment Catalogue v3.2 fallback chart.
* 0.140" is not in any published chart. These values are interpolated by wire OD between 0.125" and 3/16" from Table 3. Treat them as an estimate and confirm the top of wire with a wire finder.
Note: the Hunting chart gives much lower values for 0.125" (3 1/2" = 0.8 %, 4 1/2" = 1.2 %). This page uses the RIGTRAIN values.
