Fibre optic
Electric Tools string vs. Fibre optic
• Long tools – 30-50ft long
• Down hole electronics
• Crane required
• Grease injection tubes required for pressure seal around braided wireline, can be very long for HP wells
Intelligent SlickLINE or StiffLINE

• Very compact and short (can be transported in helicopter)
• PLT 3-4ft long
• No down hole electronics (increased reliability and significantly lower cost of manufacture and
repair)
• Shorter and faster rig up
• Simple and reliable pressure seal around slickline
• Services can be performed on wellhead deck (minimum interference to other rig activities)
Production logging with braided line
