Surface Bumper Jars<br />
Bowen ® Surface Bumper Jar<br />
Sold Export Only<br />
The NOV Downhole Bowen ® Surface Bumper Jar is designed to be installed in the drill<br />
string at the surface during fishing operations which require downward jarring impacts against<br />
a fish at the point where it is stuck. By a simple adjustment it may be set to vary the jarring<br />
force. The stroke of the tool is 48 inches, allowing the fish to be hammered down much farther<br />
than could be done with a conventional rotary jar. This tool provides many other outstanding<br />
advantages.<br />
It is unique in that it is used only on the surface to release a stuck fish. Due to this intermittent<br />
usage, the service life of this tool is greatly extended when compared with conventional<br />
bumper subs.<br />
The Bowen ® Surface Bumper Jar may be used to great advantage where the downhole drilling,<br />
fishing or washover running string becomes stuck, and a heavy downward force is required<br />
to release it. It is often used to free keyseated drill pipe and drill collars, and to initiate abrupt<br />
jarring impacts down the string to actuate Drilling Bumper Subs, Bumper Safety Joints and<br />
other similar downhole bumping tools. It is also useful for transmitting very heavy downward<br />
forces to release grappling tools such as Overshots or Spears when the grapples or slips<br />
have become imbedded in the fish or have become fouled due to repeated and prolonged<br />
downhole jarring. In many instances it has been successfully used where all previous methods<br />
have failed.<br />
Full torque may be utilized in either direction, and full circulation may be maintained through<br />
the tool during its operation.<br />
Basically, the Bowen ® Surface Bumper Jar consists of a hexagonal Mandrel Assembly working<br />
in a Bowl Assembly. The length of the stroke is important since, when using the tool, it is not<br />
necessary that the two striking surfaces meet as with conventional downhole jarring tools.<br />
