Tool Description

The Weatherford XCS jar features a sealed and oil-filled design suitable for hostile environments and that benefits from reduced maintenance and operating cost.

With the smaller cables used for cased-hole operations, there is often a limited available overpull to free stuck tools. The XCS jar increases the available force at the cablehead through stored energy in compressed springs and the wireline itself to create a powerful upwards impulse on the tools.

As the force acts on the bottom of the jar, the cablehead is protected from the impact and remains unaffected. The activation force can easily be adjusted at surface while in the string. Available in standard and HPHT specifications.
