  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REMOVING DEBRIS FROM A WELL BORE
    Publication number: 20240044227
    Abstract: A tool for cleaning debris from a wellbore comprises a rotational portion and a stationary portion. The rotational portion is configured to be coupled to a workstring disposed in the wellbore such that rotation of the workstring rotates the rotational portion. The stationary portion at least partially surrounds the rotational portion. The stational portion is configured to remain stationary when the rotational portion and the workstring are rotated. The rotational portion and the stationary portion are shaped and configured such that when the workstring is at least partially disposed in well fluid present in the wellbore, rotation of the rotational portion causes the movement of well fluid such that well fluid flows in the workstring, thereby carrying debris from the wellbore in to the workstring.

  • Apparatus and method for removing debris from a wellbore
    Patent number: 11788383
    Abstract: A tool for cleaning debris from a wellbore comprises a rotational portion and a stationary portion. The rotational portion is configured to be coupled to a workstring disposed in the wellbore such that rotation of the workstring rotates the rotational portion. The stationary portion at least partially surrounds the rotational portion. The stationary portion is configured to remain stationary when the rotational portion and the workstring are rotated. The rotational portion and the stationary portion are shaped and configured such that, when the workstring is at least partially disposed in well fluid present in the wellbore, rotation of the rotational portion causes movement of well fluid such that well fluid flows into the workstring, thereby carrying debris from the wellbore into the workstring.
