A major operator in the UAE has recovered from stuck pipe by severing its drill string in just 2.5 hours, according to Churchill Drilling Tools. The company's HyPR HoleSaver, a hydraulic pipe recovery system, was activated on a well offshore the UAE on 16 March after the bottomhole assembly (BHA) became stuck at 9,070 ft due to a pack-off in a challenging formation.
