The package solution consisted of 4 km of SlickLight-H (hybrid) supplied by Wires&Bytes, along with the SolaSense monitoring system and software. Thru Tubing Solutions will soon be gathering data from oil-producing wells in Pennsylvania, USA.

The cable was successfully spooled on a deployment reel by a local service company. During the spooling onto the Thru Tubing Solutions logging truck, the cable diameter was monitored utilizing a laser diameter measurement device. The diameter throughout the length only varied by +/- 0.0005”.

The SlickLight family is represented by several lightweight cable designs for well logging and monitoring applications. In comparison to traditional well logging cables these designs have a reduced weight and size while maintaining strength, flexibility, and compatibility with standard slickline fittings and accessories.

SlickLight-H is designed to add DAS and DTS monitoring features on top of electric slickline operation. With SlickLight technology service companies do not need to move the tool strings a lot and spend plenty of time doing so to log the entire length of the well and get accurate data in a short period of time. Since the SlickLight is a sensor over its whole length, DFOS kind of acquisition helps to pinpoint locations of interest, and bring focus quickly there using the traditional tools. This is how cost efficiency and better productivity is achieved.

DFOS interrogation equipment is added parallel to existing electric, or battery powered slickline systems, and software allows processing and visualization of both. This allows service providers to introduce wider range of well logging services with more efficiency now.
