ABSTRACT:
In a tubing conveyed perforating gun assembly, a detonator is discharged by a weight bar dropped into the tubing string, subject to unintended sticking. The disclosed safety anchor includes a rope socket enabling the safety anchor to be lowered into the tubing string. The safety anchor has an elongate body connected below the rope socket by a shear pin. The body has a mandrel and sleeve construction cooperatively connected with a bottom located grapple cage around collet fingers enabling a fishing neck on the weight bar to be grasped and firmly held. A slip radially expands to lock the safety anchor in the tubing string, enabling the weight bar to be held against falling for safe retrieval.
