Peak Family drive-down bailer

Recover hard-packed sand, gravel, or gun debris from above or inside any subsurface flow control device

Overview

Recover tough downhole debris for cleanout and analysis

Engineered with robust construction, a streamlined design, and interchangeable components, the Peak Family™ drive-down bailer is ideal for breaking up tough, hard-to-break debris. It recovers hard-packed sand, gravel, or gun debris from above or inside any subsurface flow control device.

As the bailer enters the fill, the flapper is pushed off seat, collecting the loosened debris. As the bailer is removed, it automatically closes, securely containing the debris for retrieval to surface for further analysis. Customized bailers can be made to suit your specific operational requirements.
