    This document discusses various slickline fishing scenarios and recommendations for addressing them. It describes different conditions that could occur like a toolstring being stuck, the wire breaking, or tools blowing up the hole. For each condition, it provides recommendations on closing valves, attaching cutters, jars, or other tools to the wire to cut or retrieve it, locate stuck tools, and safely remove equipment from the well. The goal is to resolve fishing jobs and retrieve all downhole tools and wires using specialized slickline tools and established procedures.

    The document discusses various fishing tool operations and recommendations for dealing with different well issues including stuck or lost tools and wire in the hole.

    Some conditions that could occur when tools get stuck in a well include being unable to jar the tools free, the wire breaking while still attached to the slickline unit, or the wire breaking while jarring to free stuck tools.

    Some recommendations for cutting wire when it breaks in the well include using a cutter, go-devil, or rotating knife wire cutter to sever the wire above the rope socket.
