Abstract: A welding tool for welding a blanking plate within a wellbore casing downhole thereby sealing the wellbore is described. The tool comprises a tubular body of a diameter sufficiently narrow to fit in a wellbore casing, the tubular body having a downhole end and a surface end; and a welding head assembly connected to the downhole end of the tubular body. The welding head assembly comprises a connector device for retaining a blanking plate to be welded within the wellbore casing, and a welding powder container which comprises a chamber for holding the exothermic welding powder, the chamber having at least a portion extending adjacent the blanking plate to be retained and proximate the wellbore casing to which the blanking plate is to be welded when the tool is positioned downhole in the wellbore casing; and an igniter wire opening for accommodating an igniter wire extending into the chamber.

Abstract: A waterjet cutting tool for radial connection to a wellbore casing for cutting the wellbore casing or associated components thereof is disclosed herein. The waterjet cutting tool comprises a waterjet nozzle for outputting a cutting solution at high pressure, the waterjet nozzle for connection to a cutting solution source; a radial adjustment unit for radially associating the waterjet nozzle to the wellbore; and an annular adjustment assembly for mount of the waterjet nozzle thereto, for allowing annular movement of the waterjet nozzle about a vertical axis of the wellbore.

Abstract: Devices for setting a plug in a pipe, as well as methods of setting a plug using such devices, are provided. Such devices may comprise an outer sheath having a longitudinal inner bore; a fitting joined to an end of the outer sheath for joining with the plug so as to prevent rotation thereof; an inner rotatable extension member extending through the inner bore of the outer sheath which is longitudinally rotatable within the inner bore; and a plug setting tool joined to an end of the inner rotatable extension member and positioned near the fitting, the plug setting tool being for engagement with the plug to cause the plug to set in the pipe when the inner rotatable extension member is rotated.

Abstract: An ultra-high pressure (UHP) cutting device for insertion into a wellbore for cutting the casing of the wellbore from within the wellbore is provided. The cutting device comprises a UHP hose connector for connection with a UHP hose in communication with a fluid source; a rotatable UHP tube with a top end in fluid communication with the UHP hose connector and a bottom end opposite the top end; a rotating means in operational communication with the UHP tube for rotating the UHP tube during operation of the cutting device; and a cutter head in fluid communication with the bottom end of the UHP tube.
