Re-entry guide shoes

The Re-entry guide shoes are used for safe reentry of wireline tools from the casing into the tubing string. Threaded on the top end only, they attach to the bottom end of the production string and are designed with a beveled guide and a full open internal diameter.

Certain tools, such as tubing end locators or sample bailers, are designed to be run out of the end of the tubing to perform their tasks. The wireline entry guide, with its internal bevel, guides the wireline or slickline tool string back into the tubing.

Applications:

  • Lowest component in the tubing string

Benefits:

  • Safe reentry of wireline or slickline tools into the tubing string

Features:

  • Rugged one-piece construction
  • Available in low-alloy steel and premium materials
  • Available in full, half mule-shoe, or bell configurations
