Overshot Fishing Tool

Overshot Fishing Tool

An Overshot Fishing Tool is one of the most widely used external fishing tools in the oil and gas industry. It is designed to engage, grip, and retrieve fish (lost or stuck tubular equipment) such as drill pipe, tubing, drill collars, casing, and other downhole tools from the wellbore. The overshot fits over the outside diameter of the fish and uses a grapple mechanism to securely latch onto it, allowing safe and efficient recovery during fishing operations.

Our Overshot Fishing Tools are available for sale and lease, providing reliable fishing solutions for onshore and offshore drilling, workover, and well intervention operations.
