Halliburton Otis® SSJ Double Shear-Down Pulling Tool
Page 1 of 5

Design Overview
The Halliburton Otis® SSJ Double Shear-Down Pulling Tool Assembly is
primarily used to install and retrieve the OTIS® X®, S, and N Test Tools
using standard wireline methods. This pulling tool is designed with a long
reach so that the drop valve is permitted to float off-seat during installa-
tion. The double shear-down adapter allows the pulling tool shear pin to
be sheared by jar-down action against either the cylinder or the core.
When used with a test tool, the pulling tool can be sheared off the test tool
by jar-down action without possible damage to the drop valve and seat.
The downward force is transmitted across the pulling tool cylinder and
onto the test tool cage.

Refer to the Engineering Design Specifications for specific design

information.

Design Principle
The pulling tool consists of a Otis® SO Double Shear-down Adapter and a
Otis® SJ Pulling Tool, less the fish neck. When properly assembled and
shear pinned, the lock segments and lock sleeve hold the core spring
compressed and serve the same purpose as the regular pulling-tool shear
pin. When the core extension and fish neck are in the "up" position, the
lock segments are held in the recess in the housing.

When the shear pin is sheared in the adapter, the core extension and the
fish neck move down releasing the lock segments from the housing. This
permits the main core spring in the pulling tool to move the core up,
forcing the dogs to move out and release the pulling tool.

Attaching the Double Shear-Down Adapter to the Pulling

Tool
1. Place the pulling tool in a vise, grip on the pulling tool cylinder.
2. Remove the fish neck and the shear pin from the pulling tool.
3. Make up the double shear-down adapter into the pulling tool fish-neck thread.

Repinning the Double Shear-Down Adapter

1. The assembly and/or repinning tool that is presently used can be used to pull the pulling
tool core down, or the double shear-down adapter can be backed off approximately .50
in. (12.70 mm). In either case the adapter locking sleeve must be allowed to move down
a sufficient amount to allow the locking segments to reset in the recess of the housing.
2. Rotate the retainer ring until the shear pin is visible, and remove the sheared portions of
the shear pin.
3. Resetting is accomplished by moving the core extension and fish neck down against the
housing and back to the "extended" position.
4. Install the shear pin, remove the assembly and/or repinning tool, and make up the
adapter.

Disassembly Instructions
Refer to the Engineering Design Specifications and Drawing.

1. Place the tool in a vise, gripping on the upper end of the cylinder (10).
2. Remove the shear-down adapter (1) from the cylinder (10).
3. Remove the shear pin retainer (2).
4. Align the lower shear pin hole in the core (9) with the cylinder (10), and install a punch
in the hole to serve as a backup.
5. Using a core nut wrench, remove the nut (3) from the core (9), and remove the punch.
6. Remove the spring (4), and push the core (9) out through the lower end of the cylinder
(10).

7. Remove the dogs (8), washer (7), and spring (6) from the cylinder (10).

Note The following numbers refer to the double shear-down adapter (1). Refer to the
appropriate Engineering Design Specifications and Drawing.

8. Place the housing (4) in the vise.

9. Rotate the shear pin retainer ring (5) to align the shear pin holes.
10. Remove the sheared portions of the shear pin (6).
11. Place a punch through the shear pin holes in the housing (4) and the core extension (3).
12. Remove the set screw (2) from the fish neck (1).
13. Remove the fish neck (1) from the core extension (3).
14. Remove the punch and push the core extension (3), spring (8), lock segments (7), and
the lock sleeve (9) out through the threaded end of the housing (4).
15. The lock segments (7) should fall free when the lock sleeve (9) is removed.
16. Clean and inspect all the parts for wear and damage.

Reassembly Instructions
Note The detail numbers in Steps 1 through 11 refer to the double shear-down adapter (1).
Refer to the appropriate Engineering Design Specifications and Drawing.

1. Place the housing (4) horizontally in the vise with the shear pin hole facing up.
2. Install the spring (8) in the lock sleeve (9).
3. Install the core extension (3) into the lock sleeve (9), compressing the spring (8).
4. Maintain compression on the spring (8), and install the lock segments (7) into the
windows of the lock sleeve (9).
5. Grasp the outside surface of the lock segments (7) to inhibit the spring (8) from pushing
the core extension (3) out of the lock sleeve (9).
6. Install the threaded end of the core extension (3) and its associated parts into the
housing (4).
7. Rotate the core extension (3) to align the shear pin holes with the housing (4).
8. Install a punch in the holes to serve as a backup.
9. Make up the fish neck (1) onto the core extension (3), and install the set screw (2).
