QA with VP Technology: What is the general life of a SlickLight cable?

18 May 2022

Petar Bašić, VP Technology at Wires&Bytes:

— SlickLights are DFOS slicklines that are retrievable downhole fiber optic cables designed to be used with common traditional slickline winches and equipment. When talking about design life, all the DFOS SlickLights (S and H types in particular) manufactured by Wires&Bytes are type tested for at least 100 well runs, collecting over 100TByte high value data during the lifetime. What really matters is efficiency in the triangle: acquisition of sufficient amount of data, low-cost operation and spending less time in the fields. If used properly, some designs can exceed 1000 well runs. For most efficient deployment of SlickLights please contact Wires&Bytes experts. They will take into consideration all important details of your wellbore data acquisition project and offer the best solution!
