Wireline Operations and Techniques - Virtual Learning
Many of today’s most vital oilfield operations depend directly on the use of wireline, a strong, thin length of wire cable mounted on a powered reel. 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.
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 Gulf Rowad 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
