In the processes related to repairing, maintaining, and stimulating oil and gas wells, various types of equipment such as inflatable packers and inflatable plugs are used, which are produced in two ways: permanent or recyclable. It is not possible to remove and repair permanent equipment deep in the drilled well. Therefore, it must be cut with a special tool, fall into the depth of the well, and then be hardly gotten out of the well with another tool, which requires a long time and heavy costs. However, retrievable packers and plugs can be easily removed from the well by applying a defined force. These tools make it possible to perform processes such as selective acidification, selective cementing, and well repairing without removing the production line. The inflatable plug that can be installed and removed allows the user to temporarily block the well without removing the production line. The bridge plugs are passed through the core pipe and after reaching the desired depth, they inflate and perform the process of blocking the wall pipe of oil and gas wells. After completing the process, the inflatable bridge plug is lowered to the original size by the fishing process and it is removed from the well. The use of recyclable plugs prevents the repair of the well with the rig, the waste of the inside formation fluid, and ultimately the imposition of additional time and costs.
