Swaging tool
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-004463
A downhole tool run on wireline or coiled tubing to repair collapsed or dented production tubing. The tool consists of a hardened, tapered mandrel that is forced through the damaged section to restore it to its original internal diameter. Multiple runs with progressively larger swages may be required to fully open a severe restriction and re-establish access for other downhole tools.
