Materials for Wireline
Applications
W
ireline refers to a cabling technology used by
operators of oil and gas wells to lower equipment
or measurement devices into the well for the purposes
of well intervention, reservoir evaluation, and pipe recovery. A wireline is an electrical cable used to transmit
data about the conditions of the well bore, called a
wireline log.
First developed by Conrad and Marcel Schlumberger in
1927, wireline logs measure formation properties in a
well through electrical means. Different from MWD and
mud logs, wireline logs are constant downhole measurements used to help geologists, drillers and engineers
make real-time decisions about drilling operations.
Wireline tools are specially designed instruments
lowered into a well bore on the end of the wireline cable.
They are individually designed to provide any number
of particular services, such as evaluation of the rock
properties, the location of casing collars, formation pressures, and information regarding the pore size or fluid
identification and sample recovery.
