IADC – WELLSHARP WELL SERVICING WIRELINE

Description

This course aims to provide an overview of wireline equipment and its operation. This course is designed for the participants to gain a deep understanding of wireline operations. Wireline is particularly important during completion and production.Field operators can run anything from a basic downhole directional survey to the most delicate gamma ray formation log on wireline. They can fire perforating charges at precisely determined downhole locations, back off a string of stuck pipe, retrieve a wrench, or manipulate complex subsurface well pressure and flow controls.Wireline operations can be done inside the tubing without killing the well, by means of a lubricator connected to the wellhead. Operations can be carried out under pressure and even without stopping production. Further, wireline operations are performed quickly due to the use of lightweight, highly mobile equipment and run by two or three specialized operators. As a result, wireline operations can be readily implemented at relatively low cost.
