I have a client in the oil industry who is very diligent when it comes to management of lithium cells but has a problem with cells that are trapped in tools returned from customers.
Often a power pack is used made up of 3 or more cells to power measuring tools, sometimes when equipment is returned for refurbishment the power pack is lodged at the bottom of a capped steel cylinder (approx 30mm dia). Drilling or cutting the metal casing to gain access to the cells is the obvious answer but due to the volatile nature of the lithium cells I'm not sure this is safe or feasible.
Has anyone come across a similar situation or does anyone have any suggestions of how to extract potentially hazardous cells from the cylinder safley?

It's no good when they are returned in that state, but could they be initially inserted with some form of strong strapping underneath which can be pulled to extract them?
