Thinking ahead: Smart products to minimize environmental impact

17 Jun 2021

At Wires&Bytes we are constantly moving forward with our designs, while also taking into consideration multiple different aspects of what our production should include. Nowadays, when the issue of environmental protection is as acute as ever, we would like to share the ideas of our contribution to this key element.

Going green means being efficient

The newest development – thick-wall SlickLight is going to change the way things are organized on well sites. While keeping the size of the SlickLight the same as traditional slicklines, and back-compatible with traditional and standard equipment, it will use the cross-section of the SlickLight more efficiently and increase the tensile strength. This applies to all SlickLight products: copper-only, fiber optic only, and hybrid, having copper and fiber optic together.

Furthermore, with the increased working strength it will be possible to provide data acquisition for deeper wells using slickline technology.

These factors contribute to lower fuel and energy consumption and fewer emissions for well intervention jobs. The operators will be able to achieve more with the same equipment and resources on the well site. It takes modern production technology to combine efficiency in operations, environmental protection, and the acquisition of quality data.

The new line will be commissioned this autumn. For now, you can check out the beauty of the current production line.
