Course Introduction

Wireline, a sturdy, thin cable mounted on a powered reel, plays a crucial role in many of today's essential oilfield operations. It is especially vital during well completion and production. Field operators use wireline to perform a wide range of tasks, from conducting basic downhole directional surveys to running intricate gamma ray formation logs. It enables precise firing of perforating charges at specific downhole locations, backing off stuck pipe, retrieving tools, and adjusting complex subsurface well pressure and flow controls.

This Wireline Operations and Techniques training course covers the development of wireline operations, describes wireline equipment, and describes the various operations (diagnostic, troubleshooting, and completion and production maintenance) performed using wireline equipment.

This Wireline Operations and Techniques training course will highlight:

  • Define what is meant by ‘wireline operations’
  • Identify the circumstances in which wireline operations are carried out
  • Describe the key steps involved in wireline operations
  • Explain the importance of pressure control during wireline operations
  • Identify the hazards posed by wireline operations
  • Describe the mitigation measures that can be used to control the risks posed by wireline operations
  • Explain the actions to take in an emergency situation
