Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0213798A2] There is described a tool for retrieving from an oil well bore a packer. The packer has a through bore through which the retrieval assembly passes. The retrieval assembly comprises an elongate body member (1) having a packer releasing milling cutter (2) and a packer retaining member (3) mounted thereon, the retaining member being releasable from a first position to a second position, the first position being such that an outer face of the packer retaining member defines a diameter greater than the diameter of the packer bore, thus preventing the assembly from entering the bore, and the second position being such that the outer face of the packer retaining member defines a diameter less than the diameter of the packer bore, thus permitting the assembly to enter the bore and extend from the packer, whereupon the retaining member may return to the said first position such that the retaining member may support the packer.
