Case Study Intervention Ensures High-Pressure Injection
Extreme-performance cable and smart shifting helped boost production in a Gulf of Mexico deepwater well.
Conveyance
Integrated wireline and slickline systems for reliable, efficient conveyance
Increasingly complex well geometries and extended well depths present growing challenges for conveyance. Deep and highly deviated wells that pose safety and logistics concerns, and wells that were not previously wireline accessible, especially benefit from using an integrated wireline conveyance system. The integration of all conveyance components—from the surface equipment through the cable—enables wireline conveyance rather than conventional drillpipe or coiled tubing conveyance.
The high-pull conveyance solution for any well
For high-pull operations, the MaxPull high-pull wireline conveyance system integrates TuffLINE torque-balanced composite wireline cable. With fit-for-purpose system components engineered for risk reduction, this combination delivers unprecedented improvements in safety, reliability, efficiency, and sticking avoidance. Augmenting MaxPull system capabilities with the TuffTRAC OH openhole evaluation wireline tractor also increases push and pull to extend wireline conveyance to every possible well configuration and environment, including the most challenging land and offshore operations.
Optimal conveyance components and configurations
To ensure that operating challenges are met, the advanced Well Conveyance Planner forecasts logging tensions, provides design recommendations, and determines the associated risk to configure the integrated conveyance system for the specific well environment. The traditional limitations of wireline logging conveyance are engineered out, enabling you to acquire all the data necessary for reservoir characterization and informed decision making.
