Abstract
A transport assembly comprising: an attachment member attachable to a downhole tool; normally two rotatable members, connected to the attachment member, the rotatable members being arranged to rotate around their main longitudinal axis; a plurality of engaging members attached to each rotatable member and extending radially outwards therefrom with respect to the main longitudinal axis; the engaging members being helically arranged around the rotatable members. The transport assembly can thus be driven into a well in a ‘corkscrew’ type manner. Embodiments include a jarring mechanism which may be reset downhole and can jar attached tools in either direction.
