A sectional pumping apparatus for well casing includes a discharge pipe, a submersible pump, a pump housing, a swab tool, and a central axis. The discharge pipe, the submersible pump, the pump housing, and the swab tool are concentrically positioned along the central axis. The discharge pipe includes a first tubular body and a flange connector. The flange connector is radially connected around the first tubular body. The submersible pump is hermetically attached to a pump end of the first tubular body. The submersible pump and the pump end are positioned within the pump housing as the first tubular body is hermetically attached to a top end of the pump housing through the flange connector. The swab tool is hermetically attached to a bottom end of the pump housing and is in fluid communication with the discharge pipe through the submersible pump.

An example system includes a moveable platform having an uphole end and a downhole end. The platform includes a drive arrangement for moving the platform in one or more directions along an interior wall of a casing string in a wellbore. The platform includes scraping arrangement for removing debris from the interior wall of the casing string. The platform includes a debris catching arrangement downhole of the scraping arrangement for collecting some or all of the debris removed. The platform may include a coating arrangement to deliver and apply a substance to at least a part of the wall of the casing string. The coating arrangement may include a reservoir holding one or more liquid substances and a valve to regulate flow of the one or more liquid substances. The liquid substance may include epoxy resin.

A method for reviving a well may include deploying a tube between a casing and a wellbore tubular of the well. The tube may extend from a surface through a port at a wellhead of the well to a section of the well at a depth above a packer. The method may include pumping down, through the tube, non-corrosive material into the section of the well. The well may be blocked below the packer by well blockage. The method may include destroying the well blockage by dissolving the well blockage using the non-corrosive material. The method may include pumping up, through the wellhead, the well blockage dissolved in the non-corrosive material.

A cementing plug including a wiper portion, an engagement section attached to the wiper portion, the engagement section including an engagement feature configured to release at a selected threshold pressure related to cement forming an annular structure about a fracturing device.

Aqueous fluids containing hydrophobic particles are effective media for cleaning water-base drilling fluids and drilling fluid solids from the interior surface of a casing string. Hydrophobic fibers may be added to a drilling fluid, a spacer fluid, a sacrificial spacer fluid, a chemical wash, or combinations thereof. The disclosed fluids may be employed during primary cementing operations where it is not possible to use a bottom plug.

A system to clean well casing in a downhole well operation. The system comprises an inner collar having flow ports and an out collar having jet ports in fluid communication with the flow ports. The inner collar couples with a section of a tool string and the outer collar rotates about the inner collar in response to fluid flow through the tool string. The inner collar can include a sleeve. The sleeve can be moved from a first position to a second position causing the jet ports to be in fluid communication with the flow ports. The inner collar remains relatively stationary with respect to the rotation of the outer collar. In addition, the jet ports are angled in a way that a portion of force generated by the fluid flow through the jet ports induce rotation of the outer collar in the opposite direction of the fluid flow.
