Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system and method of cleaning an annular area in a well (2), comprising: - a first pipe body (4) and a surrounding second pipe body (6); - a first annulus (8) containing a clean fluid (10), and a surrounding second annulus (12) containing contaminants (14); - a plurality of sets of holes (22) formed through the pipe bodies (4, 6) and dispersed along a longitudinal section (L), each set of holes (22) comprising holes (22a, 22b) aligned substantially radially; and - a washing tool (26) positioned in the first pipe body (4) and comprising spaced apart flow guides (28a, 28b) configured to enclose of a limited number of sets of holes (22), the flow guides (28a, 28b) cooperating with an inside of the first pipe body (4) to form a confined pressure compartment (30) for the limited number of sets of holes (22) when operational in the well (2).
