Tractor Assist of Super-Combos on wireline replaces Drill pipe conveyance in KSA

Highly deviated wells (> 60°) drilled with 8-3/8” and 5-7/8” bit sizes were conventionally logged using pipe conveyed toolstrings (TLC) with operation time ranging between 60 and 90 hours.

In addition, data quality of many services were compromised due to the inherent problems with this type of conveyance.

Efficiency gains from combining wireline open hole tractor and Petromac’s Wireline Express was established by successfully deploying tractors in 14 wells totalling 18 OH runs.

Adding Petromac ulta-low friction tool taxis enabled a single descent solution:

Reaching up to 86° with gravity descent!

Sonic Scanner centralized without using drag inducing centralizers

Dual density data quality enhanced

Reduced risk of differential sticking

Conveyance in small holes: 5-7/8”

Average Rig time savings per run ~25hours
