ABSTRACT
This GFE paper, entitled “Marketing and Training Tools for Logging While
Fishing”, describes the need and development of training and marketing tools to
promote sales and improve service of perhaps one of Schlumberger’s most
profitable oilfield service (in terms of return on investment), - Logging While
Fishing (LWF*). Included in detail are 1997 “Action plans” for sales, training,
equipment, and recognizing and improving Client Service Alerts (This form is
completed any time we fail to meet the client’s expected level of service and
compiled in a database for evaluation and improvements). Also, LWF revenue
results for 1996 and Q1 - 1997 are provided ($227,000, and $83,000) as well as
1996 CSA loss estimate ($320,000) and LWF potential revenue ($2.2 million) if
62 Gulf Coast cut and thread fishing jobs were converted to LWF jobs. To
enhance our ability to achieve the described potential revenue, a marketing
toolbox is needed. The marketing toolbox and its contents can be ordered
through Ross-Martin printing (rmartin1@gramercy.ios.com). Concluding this
paper are my recommendations. *Mark of Schlumberger
Primarily, a sales brochure is needed for both field and sales groups to
introduce LWF to clients. It describes the operational sequence as well as
benefits, applications, and limitations. A “Gulf Coast Case Study” section is
included describing the first three LWF jobs, giving detail to hole conditions,
toolstrings, and a cost saving analysis. For each case, our valued client saved
1
several thousands of dollars ($39,000; $56,500; $97,500) in rig dayrates as a
direct result of the time saved utilizing LWF and completed their logging
objectives during that one drillpipe descent into the borehole.
Secondly, an Interactive Marketing CD-ROM is available to provide an in-depth
description of the LWF service and shows how the client will benefit
financially with an interactive “Cost Savings” worksheet. The compact disk is
formatted for both IBM compatible and Macintosh personal computers and the
viewer can see two units of measurement, feet and meters. The purpose for
developing the LWF CD was to help promote sales and improve service. A
Schlumberger employee can sit with a client to view several topics aimed at
informing the client such as “Overview”, “Benefits”, “Cut and Thread Operation”,
“LWF Operation and Equipment”, and “Examples and Testimonials”. The viewer
has the option to view each section in sequence in automatic mode (similar to a
video), manually select topics to view, or select a “Trade Show Demo Mode” that
only covers the highlights. Viewing the entire CD automatically requires about 21
minutes (tested on IBM P-75 with 600 KBS transfer rate CD-ROM), whereas
“Demo mode” highlights only requires about 6 minutes of your time. The fact
that it is interactive means you have an active role in the viewing and learning
process. Included as a tool to emphasize the benefits of LWF to the client is a
“Cost Savings” worksheet. The rig dayrate, logging interval, and other
well information are entered in the worksheet to calculate time and money saved
utilizing the LWF service as opposed to standard cut and thread fishing. The CD
2
also includes a “Testimonial” section allowing the viewer to hear three
Schlumberger customers who are very happy with the results LWF has provided
them. Understanding that not everyone has access to a computer for training, a
third, more readily medium of information was needed to provide necessary
training.
Third, an internal Technical Paper (operational guide - updated 1994 GFE
paper by Ed Tollefsen) aimed at detailing operational issues was composed to
provide the necessary details needed to successfully and safely complete an
LWF operation. Unlike the CD, this guide focuses solely on the do’s and don’ts
of operations. It steps you through preparing the job, performing the job, and
post-logging procedures. This guide is formatted similar to other technique
sensitive procedures outlined in Wellsite Reference Manuals. Additional
materials included are two Technical Papers, 35mm Slides, Overhead
Transparencies and Presenter’s Notes, which describes the material on
each slide. The material described above is gathered into one source
reference; a Marketing Toolbox (available through Ross-Martin,
rmartin1@gramercy.ios.com).

INTRODUCTION
The materials compiled in this GFE paper were written to help both
Schlumberger and our customers meet an achievable goal of a win - win
situation for every case that a wireline toolstring becomes stuck. First, a LWF
Description is given for those of you not familiar with this service. Since its
release in 1994 (Tollefsen, GFE paper), Logging While Fishing service has yet to
reach its full potential in the marketplace mainly due to delays in the sales
promotion and machining of equipment. A Revenue Profile shows 1996 LWF
revenue results as well as 1997 YTD results. A Potential revenue analysis of
1996 Client Service Alerts and cut and thread fishing jobs that could have been
converted to LWF jobs are shown and totaled. To enhance our ability to obtain
potential revenue levels, a Marketing Toolbox is needed. The contents of the
toolbox are described. Its contents include presenter’s notes, sales brochure,
interactive marketing CD-ROM, internal technical paper (operations guide -
updated 1994 GFE paper by Ed Tollefsen), SPE paper (co authored by Shell
Offshore and Flores and Rucks), a World Oil article (co authored by our alliance
partner Texaco) 35 mm slides, and overhead transparencies. Again, this GFE
paper, entitled “Marketing and Training Tools for Logging While Fishing”,
describes the need and development of training and marketing tools to improve
sales and service of perhaps one of Schlumberger’s most profitable oilfield
service (in terms of return on investment), - Logging While Fishing (LWF*).
These issues are addressed in this paper in the way of Action Plans for
training, equipment, sales, and a review of Client Service Alerts. Included in
4
detail are 1997 “Action plans” for training, equipment, and sales. Recognizing
and improving client service is also addressed. Remember that this is a GFE
paper that I researched and wrote; so, please keep an open mind and I hope
you enjoy reading it. I encourage you to also read Ed Tollefsen’s 1994 GFE
paper titled “Logging While Fishing - An Alternate Method to Cut and Thread
Fishing”.

LWF DEFINITION AND DESCRIPTION
The traditional method available to clients when a wireline toolstring becomes
stuck was to cut and thread fish on one pipe decent, make a conditioning trip on
a second descent, and risk relogging the well on wireline or with TLC on a third
pipe trip. As you can imagine, this can become very time consuming and costly.
For those of you not familiar with LWF, the definition of LWF is an alternate
procedure to log or take samples over a zone of interest with a stuck wireline tool
utilizing the cut and thread fishing operation.
Benefits realized by the client are it saves rig time and cost, reduces risk by
providing a backup plan if wireline tools get stuck when wireline logging is
chosen over TLC, increases safety at the wellsite by minimizing the time it takes
to produce a log while cut and thread fishing, is appreciated by derrikmen,
roughnecks, and others handling the drillpipe, and ultimately logging objectives
are met efficiently. LWF benefits Schlumberger by generating additional
revenue (less time at the wellsite allows for increased tool turns and dollar per
field hour, also, the premium for the LWF service in addition to the logging
service), by improving client relations (due to the business theory that this
service was developed with the clients needs in focus to reduce exploration and
production cost; appreciation), and by increasing market share (due to improved
client relations and the fact that this service is patented and only offered to SWS
6
clients; of course the patent laws can be broken by certain companies without
morals and sound business ethics).
Limitations of the Logging While Fishing service are that the openhole log
interval is limited to the depth of the casing shoe, the Cable Side Entry Sub and
Double Ended Torpedo must travel in the casing only, and must follow similar
guidelines as Schlumberger’s Tough Logging Conditions System. Please refer
to the materials prepared in the marketing toolbox for details.
Applications of the Logging While Fishing service are for open or cased
wellbores, image or sample logging, straight or deviated wellbores, when TLC
latching difficulties exist (The tool is descended into the hole on wireline until a
predetermined depth in casing, with a tool overshot and special locking grapple,
cut and thread fishing begins for the unstuck tool, overshoot the tool head to
engage the “fish”, then install the Downhole Cable Severing Device and Cable
Side Entry Sub, then log the well as drillpipe and wireline cable are tripped into
and out of the wellbore.), and for most logging tools with the exception of the
Repeat Formation Tester (The 3600 # shearing strength shear bolt must be
locked with a TLC shear collar. If this is done, then it will be impossible to
collapse the tool if it loses power in an open state. A fishing operation will be
guaranteed), and the Checkshot seismic tool (Signal quality is lost due to noise
generated by the drillpipe and the rigid body to geophone design of the tool.),
7
and Sidewall Core Guns (The use of explosive type tools has not yet been
approved by HSE. It is still unsafe to chance the lives of wellsite workers.).
A case study from an offshore Gulf of Mexico well drilled by Texaco Exploration
and Production, Inc. (Table 1). A MDT* Modular Dynamic Reservoir Tester was
run. After the tool was latched with the overshot, 20 additional pressure
measurements and three fluid samples were acquired.

REVENUE PROFILE
Now turning our focus to revenue, we see that $227,000 was generated for 1996
and 1997 YTD results are $83,000 as of 3/18/97 (Table 2).
TABLE 2 1996/1997 YTD REVENUE RESULTS
REVENUE AMOUNT
1996 $227,000
1997 YTD As of 3/18/97 $83,000
These amounts are for LWF revenue only. Potential revenue for 1996 was
estimated at $320,000 from Client Service Alert’s and this also only includes
LWF revenue. I reviewed all 1996 Gulf Coast Division fishing reports and found
that there were 62 applicable cut and thread fishing jobs that could have been
converted to LWF jobs to produce a potential revenue of $2.2 million
dollars as shown in APPENDIX A, and this spreads over the Gulf Coast
districts also shown in APPENDIX A. This dollar amount includes only LWF
revenue as well. Remember, logging service revenue amounts are in addition to
the above amounts. New Iberia Offshore would have made nearly $700,000 and
Opelousas Land about $73,000. My research of the fishing reports are shown in
APPENDIX A.

MARKETING TOOLBOX
A Marketing Toolbox is necessary to greatly enhance our ability to meet the
above potential revenue amount and introduce LWF into the marketplace. The
use of one set of reference materials help preserve consistency in the sales and
training process, minimizing interpretations of the procedure and the critical
guidelines required to successfully and safely perform an LWF job. The contents
of the marketing toolbox include presenter’s notes, marketing brochure,
interactive marketing CD-ROM, internal technical paper (operations guide),
35mm slides, overhead transparencies, SPE paper co authored by Shell
Offshore and Flores and Rucks, and a World Oil article co authored by our
alliance partner, Texaco. The brochure will help field and sales groups introduce
LWF to clients both in the office and in the field. The compact disk is directed
towards giving the viewer a detailed overview of the LWF operational sequence
including benefits, applications, and a general sequence of operation.
Complimenting this CD, a technical guide (operations guide - updated 1994 GFE
paper by Ed Tollefsen) is intended for internal use focusing primarily on
Standard Operating Procedures and guidelines. For the person desiring to
present Logging While Fishing to a group can utilize animation provided on the
CD or tailor their presentation by selecting the slides provided.

Although the contents of the marketing toolbox were gathered through the work
of this project, the final product will be approved by the wireline coordinator,
Steven Whittaker, at Sugarland, Texas. According to response to monthly
distribution letters, the packages are distributed by Ross-Martin
(rmartin1@gramercy.ios.com). Table 3 shows production costs for the marketing
toolbox components as well as a purposed purchase price. Plans are to
distribute one toolbox to each location listed in Table 4.

MARKETING BROCHURE
Primarily, the brochure will help field and sales personnel introduce LWF to
clients both in the office and in the field. The brochure is one of the easiest and
economical tools for promoting LWF sales. It is a one page (front and back),
color layout describing the operational sequence along with benefits,
applications, and safety. A “Gulf Coast Case Study” section is included on the
brochure, which was drawn from the October, 1996 LWF Society of Petroleum
Engineers paper (SPE - Tollefsen, 1996). The first three LWF jobs were
discussed giving detail to hole conditions, toolstrings, and a cost savings
12
analysis. For each case the client saved several thousands of dollars in rig time
and completed their logging objectives during that one descent into the borehole.
The art work and editing was arranged through Schlumberger’s Sugarland
Publications (Donna Peterson). It has the same format as other Wireline and
Testing brochures. The brochure can be ordered through E-mail by contacting
rmartin1@gramercy.ios.com
and supplying your location code and requesting SMP-5600. To view the
brochure on the internet, just indicate the internet location with the following
address. www.connect.slb
INTERACTIVE MARKETING CD-ROM
The interactive marketing CD is similar to other Schlumberger CD’s having the
intent to educate people and promote sales. This is done with 3-D animations,
examples, and testimonials. This fully animated interactive marketing CD-ROM
was developed to provide a visually stimulating presentation of the LWF
operation and describe how the client benefits with its use. A sales person can
sit with a client to view several topics aimed at informing the client such as
“Overview”, “Benefits”, “Cut and Thread Operation”, “LWF Operation and
Equipment, and “Gulf Coast Case Studies”. The sales person has the option to
view each section in sequence, manually jump to topics at hand, or select a
“Trade Show Demo mode” that only covers the main points that sell this service.
Viewing the entire CD topic by topic requires about 21 minutes, whereas the
13
Demo overview only requires about 6 minutes of your time. The timing will
depend on the speed of your computer and CD player to access data (Table 4).

The fact that it is interactive means you take an active part in the viewing and
learning process. There is a “Cost Savings” worksheet for clients to enter their
rig dayrate and well information that calculates time and money saved utilizing
the LWF service as opposed to conventional cut and thread fishing.
Upon running the CD, the “Testimonial” section automatically plays statements
provided by three satisfied and prominent New Orleans area Schlumberger
clients (including an alliance partner engineer). The sequence of play is Abner
Guillory (Shell Offshore, Petrophysical manager), Bill Flores (Flores & Rucks, VP
14
Operations), and Mark Everett (Texaco, Drilling Engineer). This plays for 2
minutes, 17 seconds and pages back to the main menu. The programming of
the CD forces automatic playing of the success stories in an effort to emphasize
the customer satisfaction. The intent is to give prospective clients of different
disciplines someone other than Schlumberger to relate to. In the event that the
prospective customer is not sure of the benefits, he/she can take the advice of
satisfied customers that will consider using LWF again. The voices are heard as
well as a couple of photos of each speaker. Selecting “Overview” and then
automatic play steps you through Highlights, Benefits, Applications, Limitations,
and Optional Setup. Then by selecting the “Cut & Thread” menu and automatic
play, a narrator describes the animation of a conventional cut and thread fishing
operation. Next, Logging While Fishing animation is selected. An animated
operational sequence is viewed followed by equipment description. The
advantage of the animated view is the ability to see cutaway views of each piece
of equipment and what is actually happening downhole. Other options available
are an interactive savings worksheet and four examples listing actual time and
money saved by four Gulf Coast customers. The savings worksheet allows the
user to input variables such as rig dayrate, stuck tool depth, casing depth, and
logging interval to calculate direct savings utilizing Logging While Fishing as
opposed to cut and thread fishing, making a conditioning trip, and re-logging the
well on drillpipe utilizing TLC*.

The compact disk is hybrid formatted for both IBMs and MACs and has
changeable units of measurement for the viewer to work in feet or meters. The
multimedia compact disk was produced by Technomedia (Houston, Texas).
They have produced other marketing/training modules (Platform Express, MDT,
SRFT). The programming language used to write the logic was LINGO and the
animations with Macromedia’s Director 5.0. The sequence of producing this CD
started with an outline of the proposed storyboard. Then a storyboard was
written giving details of sequence, programming notes, and narration. From the
storyboard, programming is done and reviewed. Final approval of the marketing
CD was in March, 1997 by NAM ES Marketing Manager, Dwight Peters and GCD
Marketing Manager, Jeff Gorski.
TECHNICAL PAPER (OPERATIONS GUIDE)
Third, an internal technical paper (operational guide - updated 1994 GFE paper
by Ed Tollefsen) aimed at detailing operational issues was composed to provide
the necessary details needed to successfully and safely complete an LWF
operation. Unlike the CD, this guide focuses solely on the do’s and don’ts of
operations. It steps you through preparing the job, performing the job, and post-
logging procedures. This guide is formatted similar to other technique sensitive
procedures outlined in Wellsite Reference Manuals.
16
ADDITIONAL TOOLBOX CONTENTS
Additional materials included are two technical papers, 35mm slides, overhead
transparencies and presenter’s notes, which describes the material on
each slide. The material described above is gathered into one source
reference; a Marketing Toolbox (available through Ross-Martin,
rmartin1@gramercy.ios.com).
The purpose of the presenter’s notes is to help the presenter focus on presenting
the material and client needs instead of spending all his/her time “re-inventing
the wheel” preparing an LWF talk. Each available slide will be pictured in this
guide along with notes pertaining to that slide. This maximizes consistency
between various presenters. Gulf Coast case studies are profiled in two
technical papers: the Society of Petroleum Engineers technical paper (SPE -
(10/96) co authored by Shell Offshore and Flores and Rucks) and the World Oil
technical paper (co authored by alliance partner Texaco). These two papers
describe the savings LWF brought three customers (Flores & Rucks, Shell, and
Texaco).

SCHLUMBERGER ACTION PLANS
GENERAL
Over the past two years revisions to LWF equipment, procedure, and marketing
developed at different rates. The procedure, although patented, has made
significant improvements. Equipment development and manufacturing was very
slow due to delays by Hydrolex manufacturing producing only one LWF Sub set
by December 1996. To make an LWF job, a Downhole Cable Severing Device
Sub(DCSD), Cable Side Entry Sub(CSES), and a modified Double Ended
Torpedo Assembly(DET) with adapter is needed. After changing the
manufacture company, five subs were in use by March, 1997. These DCSC
subs were combined with CSES from TLC pallets in operation to perform LWF
jobs. Budget plans are in place for 1997 to allow for TLC and LWF pallets and
crews to work more independent of one another. Marketing needs were focused
on by the end of Q1, 1996 prompting the purpose of this GFE paper. The
necessary selling and training tools were determined and produced. Action
plans currently in progress are to get employees trained with the marketing
toolbox, On the Job Training, and PEPTEC training program for engineers. Also,
realize equipment budgets for 1997 to allow for five simultaneous LWF jobs, and
aggressively pursue pricing changes as proposed by current Gulf Coast “Value
Pricing” Strategies.
18
TRAINING
Current Gulf Coast Division Training plans are to focus on training personnel
(sales force and field crews) utilizing the Marketing Toolbox, On the Job Training,
District Engineer presentations, Senior Operator TopStar/Advanced training,
proficiency exams through PEPTEC (TLC/LWF section, up to level three), and
the WTH training server. We must work expeditiously and training is imperative
to convey LWF technology to clients with the goal to successfully execute LWF
jobs to make LWF a profitable hit for Schlumberger. We are missing enormous
opportunities to raise LWF revenue into the millions of dollars as I have indicated
in the Sales/Marketing section of this paper.
The technical paper is an operations guide having a similar format to other
procedure sensitive services listed in the Wellsite Reference Manuals. Like any
other service, it is advisable for field personnel to first read and thoroughly
understand the SOP for that service before performing it. Gulf Coast Special
Services located in Belle Chasse, Louisiana had 5 of 11 TLC Specialist trained
by Dec. 1996 and plans for all to be trained by June 1, 1997. This objective will
be achievable by holding technical meetings at the district to review SOP and
share actual LWF job experiences by those already trained. Wireline district
locations are to make LWF the topic for discussion at a technical meeting
reviewing reference materials available and SOP. A TLC/LWF specialist is
recommended to attend the meeting for technical assistance and guidance. It is
planned to have all districts of the Gulf Coast Division equip their field crewboxes
with modified double ended torpedo assemblies by mid 1997. Training
19
schedules will complement the equipment plans for maximum market impact.
Therefore, field crews must be proficient at reestablishing electrical connections
to start the operation while the LWF subs are mobilized to location by either
crewboats, helicopters, or hotshot trucks. Rental and Fishing company
representatives will be invited to their local Schlumberger district to learn Logging
While Fishing. Sales groups will have marketing toolboxes to aid in their training
in addition to presentations given by Special Service representatives.
For the person desiring additional training can find it on the Training server
(Khem Kunsuik Mengrai, Training Manager, WTH Paris). through three levels of
PEPTEC training just contact Adams/Smitson, NAM Training Center (Training
server, a view of a workbench set up for interactive simulation to re-establishing
electrical connection to the logging tool after the wireline is cut. Since correctly
re-establishing the electrical connection before re-powering the tool is very
critical to a successful LWF operation, interactive simulation complements the
training process and practicing this procedure will improve efficiency as well as
minimize doubts leading to failures.
Any technical questions should be directed to your local LWF special services
district.
20
EQUIPMENT
By the end of 1996, GCSS had two sets of LWF equipment. The current action
plan is to machine enough subs to run five simultaneously jobs by the end of
1997 (Table 5). Also by the end of 1997, the double ended torpedoes will be a
standard part of every field crewbox.

The cost to bring up a complete LWF pallet is $41,840.00 (Table 6). That would
include both 4 ½” and 3 ½” subs. The Hydrolex manufactured subs are available
through VPC and the torpedo is available through BCSS.

Total $41,840.00
To properly (with the greatest potential for success) perform an LWF job, each
logging crew must add ACT-S tools and TDK devices to their standard loadouts.
Also, whole body fishing is recommended requiring the proper size fishing
21
equipment on location. Please refer to the Marketing Toolbox to learn about the
Logging While Fishing service and the equipment used to perform a job.
SALES/MARKETING
To properly develop a Sales/Marketing plan, we must first review where we
currently stand in the big picture. Pricing is then evaluated along with the market
forces that exist. Next, TLC is discussed and the market effects LWF will have.
Finally, the current and proposed client presentations are outlined.
REVIEW
By reviewing, we can develop a sales/marketing plan to increase activity and
revenue; bringing it up to a level of full potential. The purpose here is to see
what can help bring LWF activity to its rightful place in the market. As you will
see, there is a large gap to fill between the actual revenue and potential revenue
for my 1996 analysis. Since its release in 1994, the Logging While Fishing
service has yet to reach its full potential in the marketplace under its current
development rate. The potential savings from the client’s perspective (Tollefsen,
GFE, 1994), LWF could have saved our Gulf Coast Division clients over $5
million in a ten month period. This figure was derived from 108 fishing jobs in
1993. The analysis here was to run LWF on each job to save each client an
average of $50,000 per job. Saving time is also important to our customers.
22
The sooner they can rig Schlumberger down and out of the way, the sooner they
can go back to exploration and production. Also, the rig dayrate trend has
increased tremendously over the past few years, making LWF an attractive
procedure to influence oil companies to choose Schlumberger over our
competitors. The only damper on this theory is oilfield service companies other
than SWS choosing to perform LWF services at a discounted rate and just pay
patent and court fees. The patents department will be kept up to date on
competitor activity on this matter by Gulf Coast Division managers.
The first three LWF jobs were performed offshore in the waters of the Gulf of
Mexico. Amazingly, LWF saved Flores and Rucks $56,500 on one job and Shell
Offshore a total of $136,500 on two jobs. Documented separately was a Texaco
job with documented client savings of $292,000. These amounts shadow Ed
Tollefsen’s estimates to save clients $50,000 per LWF job (Tollefsen, GFE,
1994). The potential savings for Schlumberger are just as beneficial. In addition
to the increased revenue (both the LWF service, possible TLC standby charges,
and the logging service that was efficiently delivered), the sooner we are off
location the sooner we can get back to the district for preventive maintenance
and in the lineup for another job. This gives us a chance to increase revenue
(revenue per field hour) and service, and most importantly minimize safety
hazards by leaving location sooner. As for as safety is concerned, LWF can
reduce retrieval time by as much as 50% allowing for a safer cut and thread
fishing job because there are less monotonous threading procedures for the
23
derrikman and floor hands. We have the chance to increase market share with
more clients utilizing LWF. With the relatively low investment cost of LWF
equipment, we have the potential to gain much more in the long run. Until 1996
most of the development attention had been focused on technical aspects of
LWF. A U.S. patent for this technique was issued and granted in 1995. Also,
equipment and procedure development was focused upon.
The top 10 clients who have fished in this period were:
Texaco, ADTI, Shell Offshore, SWEPI, Flores & Rucks, Vastar Resources,
ORYX, Kerr McGee, LLOG, Amerada Hess.

PRICING ISSUES
Pricing related issues described below are a prime focus of the Gulf Coast
Division. Current accounting procedures are not being followed and job types
are confusing. Also, the proposed Gulf Coast Division “Value Based” pricing
strategy is being looked at by our Marketing and Pricing department heads.
25
CURRENT ACCOUNTING CODES
The current LWF accounting codes are shown in Table 9. TLC codes are also
shown for comparison. Offshore LWF charges are set 75% more than Land
charges.

• $1500/week (tie this amount to the type of rig: higher for smaller rig types)
• personnel sitting on standby at shop
• charges set to amount that compensates for equipment tied to one job on
standby
PROPOSED “VALUE PRICING”/RIG DAYRATES
The current LWF price schedule is “TLC based” (Flat equipment, plus surcharge)
as was shown in Table 6. It is proposed that LWF pricing be “value based”. The
proposed of Gulf Coast “Value Pricing” Strategy is based on the worldwide
Schlumberger initiative to set the price of a service according to the customer’s
perceived value. This proposed strategy applies to services such as MDT “low-
shock” sampling, Platform Express reduced logging time and improved data
quality, PEGS Frac-Pak production enhancement procedures, as well as Logging
While Fishing. We can deliver a basic client need (GR, DIT) to the client
according to competitive market price, whereas added value services (LWF,
MDT “low-shock”, Platform Express, PEGS, QUAD-combos) provide additional
data, which is very valuable to the client. Since dayrates are higher for offshore
deep water rigs, the potential for added value is greater to offshore clients than
land clients. A pricing proposal “value pricing” based has been submitted by the
Gulf Coast Division to the oil company, Louisiana Land & Exploration (LL&E), but
have not received a feedback as of March 18, 1997. Plans are to approach
additional companies.
27
PROPOSED “VALUE PRICING” EXAMPLE
An example of how basing LWF according to rig rates affects revenue is shown
here in an actual Gulf Coast Case. Texaco indicated a savings of 56 hours and
$292,000 utilizing LWF. This indicates that $5214/hr and $125,136/day was
saved. On the other hand, Schlumberger’s revenue was from an 80% depth
charge for a MDT to 13,400 feet. This amount totaled $17,000. Whereas, if
pricing were “value based” at a rate of 25% of clients savings, the revenue
would have been $73,000; a 429% increase or better yet $146,000; an 859%
increase at 50% of client’s rig dayrate savings. The client has other expenses in
addition to rig dayrates such as drillpipe/collar/bits rentals, rig crews, catering,
transportation, missed well completion deadlines, other service related providers,
etc. The pricing for an LWF job should still include LWF Dayrates. In addition, if
the service is run, add the Value Pricing rate (25% or 50% of clients savings) in
addition to the logging service revenue.
28
As U.S. Gulf average rig dayrate trend increases and logging costs are
minimized to the lowest possible (increased discounts), we must take a different
approach at finding ways to increase Schlumberger revenue and appearance to
potential stock market investors (Table 10). Value based pricing is that
approach.
TABLE 10 GULF OF MEXICO

Average Day Rate
Jackups - Jan 95 ($18,000); Aug 96 ($26,000)
Semis - Jan 95 ($36,000); Aug 96 ($89,000)
As of July 1996 GOM offshore rig utilization was 89.40%

Jackups (91.4%) Semis (86.7%) Barges (93%)
TLC
Traditionally, when planning a well logging program, client’s decisions are driven
by risk. Risk analysis determines if logging toolstrings will be run on wireline
(gravity descent) or on the end of drillpipe (TLC). If the wireline descent would
require maybe 50% of the time it takes to run TLC, then the program would be
made to run on wireline(I’m sure there are other influences, but for simplicity’s
sake, there are none.). If the toolstring becomes stuck, then the time savings
are thrown out the window and cut and thread fishing with drillpipe is done. After
fishing, the wellbore is reconditioned with another pipe descent and the zone of
interest is re-logged by wireline gravity descent or with drillpipe assisted logging.
29
As you can imagine this procedure can become very time consuming and costly.
Now with the availability of this revolutionary new alternate method to the
traditional method called Logging While Fishing, Schlumberger client’s risk
analysis will be improved and their logging company of choice will more than
likely be Schlumberger. So if wireline logging is chosen over drillpipe assisted
logging and the toolstring does unfortunately become stuck, risk is greatly
reduced and the wellbore will still be logged, objectives will still be met efficiently
and safer, and most of all the client will be very grateful (hopefully) to the oilfield
service company with the ultimate goals set with our clients in mind and that
company is Schlumberger.
TLC will be affected slightly by the increase of LWF jobs, but Table 11 shows
U.S. horizontal permits show a strong market.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Currently most of my recommendations have been addressed and are currently
practiced. All reflect upon Gulf Coast Division’s plans and practices, with the
exception of my viewpoint on Technomedia.
I recommend that LWF continue to be managed by Gulf Coast Special Services. LWF
equipment and TLC equipment is very similar, the Specialist operators overseeing the
jobs are the same, and for efforts to maintain service quality (minimize depth control
errors since the wireline cable is able to move freely through the CSES, three sets of
hands at the wellsite will help). An experienced Specialist at the wellsite in addition to a
LWF proficient field crew will minimize problems with the technique sensitive
procedures, improve Schlumberger’s professional appearance at the wellsite, and
ultimately minimize the chances that Murphy’s Law will cause safety problems and
accidents.
Wireline cables should be manufactured with conductor number one color coded
to maximize efficiency and safety. Again, we should look at ways that minimize
the affects of Murphy’s Law. Also, we would be able to offer Sidewall Core
services to our clients. As a result of my recommendation, color coded 7-V46
and 7-V46XS cables are available at no extra cost.
33
A sustaining request has been submitted to Vector Product Center to develop
smaller LWF Subs to make Flyout Services more efficient and safe.
I have contacted the appropriate persons to include Logging While Fishing with
TLC in the PEPTEC training program and be placed on the worldwide training
server. District Senior Operators should be selected to attend TOPSTAR-
Advanced training to learn more about Logging While Fishing.
Include Modified Double Ended Torpedo Assemblies in district crewboxes. This
will allow field crews to set up LWF at the wellsite while the additional
components of a LWF pallet be mobilized to the wellsite as well as a LWF
Specialist and a Fishing Advisor.
An interface between Multimedia production companies, NAM Technical, and
NAM Marketing is needed. Products would be produced more efficiently if one
person was overseeing the entire process. The Multimedia company I used for
the production of my CD was Technomedia. They are an international company
based in Jakarta, Indonesia and offices in Houston, Texas, and Los Angeles,
California. Of course, I did experience a couple of problems with there service,
but did not outweigh the benefits, loyalty, and devotion I received. Greg Bhin
was my contact in Houston. After working on this project he has improved upon
their process is currently looking at structuring strategies to meet client’s needs
to receive products more efficiently and bug free in addition to state of the art
34
marketing and training package designs that use and reflect tomorrow’s software
design capabilities as well as marketing ideas. Also in their plans is to improve
the communication interface between them and their clients similar to our
alliance coordinators. They have done a great job for me and, now knowing
what you just read, I would consider using them again in the future and
recommend you do the same.
Most important, sales groups should be educationally BLITZED to enhance
abilities to meet and exceed Gulf Coast Division’s 1997 budget plans of
$500,000.
In conclusion, the materials contained in this paper will help us maximize the
opportunity for a win-win relation between us and our clients.
Please contact myself or Sam Edwards (Gulf Coast Special Services District
Manager) for any questions or comments.

I started with Schlumberger in 1991 after graduating from the University of New
Orleans with a Bachelors of Science degree in Electrical Engineering. My first
assignment was in Houma, Louisiana at the Houma Inland district where I
trained for exploration services. It was also there where I crosstrained to learn
production services. In 1996 I transferred to the Gulf Coast Special Services
district in Belle Chasse, Louisiana as a Borehole Seismic Engineer.
On the personal side, I would like to commend my wife, Richelle, and two sons,
Michael and Nicholas, on their patience while I wrote this paper and prepared for
presentations to the management, technical, marketing and sales staffs of the
Gulf Coast Division and NAM Headquarters.

WIRELINE DISTRICT LOADOUT - When LWF is a possibility
Call the Logging While Fishing special services manager to review crew/equipment availability and
review technical specifics for your particular job.
• Positive tool engagement

ACTS - Tension/Compression adapter - monitors downhole force upon tool engagement
- LEH-QT heads will not show compression of fishing tool grapple onto the stuck tool.
• Single arm caliper tools (ex: LDT, EPT, HILT, CSI, ...)
SAHE - Swivel head adapter
Tool turner
(Note: It is imperative that the tool not be allowed to roll over on itself. This would prevent the
caliper from opening. If no swivel is run, the engineer must pay close attention to the caliper.
Do not rotate the tool over 1/2 turn. This may require more rotations on the drill pipe as the
torque works its way downhole.
• Other

M&S to redress cut cable (rope sockets, male/female pins). Make note of cable size/type at rig.
Parts needed:
• LWF tool box(these are the items that Special Services brings to location)
• tape measure, insert (for CSES), packing nuts and rubbers, spring ball and cover bolt, DC III,
• hacksaw, split jig (for rope socket), punches for 0.46” and 0.52” cable, cable pliers, hammer,
• winchesters, string for line 1, torpedo, double female wire (for ground), boots, pins,
• insulators (male and female; teflon and poly), wire strippers, parts for cutting sub
• Electrical connection options(can be done before or after cut and thread)

1. Before - Equipment needed to build rope sockets and adapt to fishing tools must be on location prior to
cut and thread starts. The wireline conductor identification process is done while the fishing equipment
is installed. This process takes approximately one hour.
2. After - Cut cable 15 feet from where the T-bar is placed when the cable is first cut. The fishing
mechanical connections only are made prior to cut and thread. The LWF specialist is sent to location
with the LWF equipment during the cut and thread operation. The wireline conductor identification
process is done when the DCSD and CSES subs are installed. This process takes approximately one
hour. In some cases, the drillpipe will be stopped in open hole for this procedure.

GENERAL
Familiarize yourself with Standard Operating Procedures regarding cut and thread FISHING and TOUGH
LOGGING CONDITIONS techniques as outlined in the Wellsite Reference Manual.
Each LWF situation is unique; however, there are general guidelines to follow in any LWF operation:
1. Do not pull out of weak point when tool becomes stuck. Keeping this electrical/mechanical
connections a key to LWF.
2. After placing the T-bar on the wireline, allow 15 feet from the rig floor to the cut. This makes
preparing the wireline easier and more efficient. This is explained in detail in Section C.
3. As in any drillpipe conveyed logging situation the cable side entry sub(CSES) should not enter
openhole to reduce chance of damaging the cable at the casing shoe.
4. The interval to be logged during LWF operations must be determined; specifically the possible
maximum and minimum logging depths must be defined. Allow for log overlaps and tie-in’s. Many
times LWF will allow the continuation of uplogs from the stuck tool depth. Overlaps would help when
splicing log sections together and help quality check tool response to pre-LWF response.
5. It is preferable to install the cable side entry sub(CSES) and downhole cable severing device(DCSD)
while drillpipe is in the casing to minimize the chance of sticking drillpipe. This is no problem when
the openhole interval is less than the cased hole interval. When the casing shoe is at a shallow depth
and the logging interval is deep, good hole conditions may prompt the client to accept the risk and stop
the drill pipe in open hole long enough to place these subs. The slips must be set. It is a procedure that
has successfully been performed in a straight hole.
6. The amount of cable outside the drillpipe during LWF operations should be minimized.
These guidelines will sometimes conflict with each other, but they can be formulated into a specific
procedure.
Most aspects of LWF operations are similar to standard cut and thread fishing and drillpipe conveyed
operations(TLC). Critical decisions are 1)what depth to install the cable side entry sub and 2)at what time
will the electrical connections be prepared (before or after cut and thread).
• Tools not applicable to LWF
Operations Guide 4
RFT - Repeat Formation Tester - For TLC the RFT must be pre-modified with a locking collar
(H427627) to prevent a premature hydraulic dump of the RFM due to shearing of the shear bolts.
If a shear collar is placed on the tool before a wireline descent (for the purpose of LWF), then it
will be impossible to collapse the tool if it loses power in an open state on the wireline run. A
fishing operation will be guaranteed. A variety of reasons could cause the tool to lose power such
as generator failure, computer crashes, collector/cable problems, modules, etc. Because of these
reasons we don't log RFT tools with LWF.
QSSTB - Quick Shot Seismic Tool - seismic geophone section is rigid to the tool, signal quality is lost
when tool is conveyed on drillpipe.
CST - Cronological Sidewall Coring Tool - It is unsafe for crewmembers to run this service because the
cable lines must be identified by sending current down the cable conductors with a multimeter
possibly igniting the bullets.
Operations Guide 5
DEPTH CONTROL
Depth control will be more difficult than normal since there is no cable clamp on the wireline at the Cable
Side Entry Sub (CSES).
While logging, adjust the tension to maintain a safe pull not to part the weak point.
General Rules: Safe pull = cable weight + 1,000 pounds
Max pull will either be safe pull on the weak point or half the breaking strength of the
cable (whichever is less)
don’t confuse normal weight and cable weight
normal weight is the uphole tension observed as the tool and cable are moving unassisted
by the drill pipe
Remember, cable weight increases as you go into the hole and decreases on the way out.
If this is not done, tension on the weak point would gradually increase while coming out of the hole.
(Depth control tip: make chalk mark on drill pipe near the rig floor and have the driller measure with a tape
measure the exact footage desired to move the tool up or down. (This was done on a MDT job on LWF)
SAFETY
Hold a safety/information meeting with the company man, driller, tool pusher, and other personnel involved
in the operation. Meeting discussion must be passed on when one worker is relieving another; especially
when rig workers change tower.
Safety issues to discuss:

• Clear personnel from the rig floor as the torpedo passes each sheave and onto the winch drum.
• When logging deeper than the stuck tool depth, the torpedo will descend below the rig floor. Note this
depth for when it is time to come back up through the rotary table. The ends of the torpedo may get
caught on flat-lipped surfaces.
• A snatch block may be used to move the cable out of the rig floor workers way. Check its condition
and the line holding the tension.
• Watch for finger pinch points:

Downhole Cable Severing Device
Cable Side Entry Sub
Between the cable spear and overshot
Between each stand of pipe
Snatch block
• Observe all radioactive and explosive Standard Operating Procedures as outlined in the Wellsite
Reference Manual.
• Core guns: It is unsafe for crewmembers to run this service because the cable lines must be identified
by sending current down the cable conductors with a multimeter possibly igniting the bullets.
Operations Guide 6
Single or double CST-G core guns have inserts that are wired such that lines 5 and 7 connect to a
geophone. When the logging cable is cut for LWF, reestablishing electrical connections are done
by identifying these two lines first. Then the others can be labeled.
Triple CST-G core guns have inserts wired such that lines 6 and 7 connect to a geophone.
When using a Simpson multi-meter to identify these lines, clip your black lead to line 7 first. Use
the red lead to probe for either line 5 or 6.
To increase safety and efficiency in identifying conductors, 7-46P and 7-46XS cables are now available
with lines 1 and 7 color coded.
Currently #7 is coded blue in the 7-46 P High Strength cables. Vector could code #7 and #1 blue for 7-
46 P High Strength and color code #1 only for standard 7-46 P cables. In that way, #1 would always be
identified on both 7-46 P cables and 7-46 P High Strength cables could still be identified.
High Temp 7-46 NT cables cannot be color coded because the coloring added to the insulation actually
contaminates the insulating material. The coloring is also very difficult to see in the teflon.
Also small diameter cables (7-42 and 7-39) cannot be color coded as the contamination from the
coloring material has been linked to an increased number of short conductors.
We can color the No 1 conductor on the 746P cable since the insulation is thicker than say a 742 or 739
cable. On 739 cables in the past we found the failure rate to be higher on the colored conductors than
the uncolored ones.
When we convert, all cables will be changed and the price will not change. At this point it would be
possible to build color coded 7-46 P cables on special order.
Operations Guide 7
B. FISHING TECHNIQUE
CUT AND THREAD
Cut and thread fishing is the preferred method of fishing for all wireline tools and is the only method when
the cable is stuck. In this technique, the cable is cut at the surface and the drillpipe is threaded into the hole
one stand at a time. In this way the cable is always inside the drillpipe. The cable guides the overshot over
the tool which is critical in a washed out hole or for a short tool string. Tool recovery is assured when
procedures are followed precisely.
C. STEPS OF OPERATION
PREPARE TO CUT CABLE
Verify that tool power is off. Pull up 1500 to 2000 lbs. over normal tension on winch. Support the weight
of the cable with a cable clamp or T-Bar. (Ensure that the bushing size matches the cable by viewing the
stamped bushing.) Slack off on the cable to allow T-Bar to support weight. Cut the cable to allow as much
slack as possible from the T-Bar(15 feet would be ideal, 8 feet is the minimum and very difficult to work
with). Rig up derrick by determining where sheave wheels will be placed. Follow FISHING SOP
guidelines as outlined in the WRM. Lower the upper sheave wheel to the rig floor and replace the spade
with a Schlumberger approved sling. The upper sheave should be re-hung in the derrick where it will not
get in the way of tripping drillpipe. Place TDK tension device on lower sheave. Remove CMTD tension
device from winch spooling arm. Remember to change device type in SSD Depth/Tension Display.
WIRELINE PREPARATION
Use the barrel/split nut type torpedo to house the electrical connections. This allows you to prepare
electrical connections before fishing starts. This procedure takes approximately one hour. The split nut is
placed on the downhole cable after the rope socket is made. Thread the barrel onto the uphole cable before
placing the rope socket. When placing the rope sockets on the line, cut the armor back 2-1/2 inches on the
uphole side and 2 inches on the downhole side. The uphole side of the cut is dressed with female pins and
the downhole side has the male pins. Identify the downhole lines through tool response and the uphole lines
through conventional means(See Appendix B). Make note of the conductor numbers by sticking numbered
tape labels to each. Reconnect the lines. Verify the connections using the same tool responses inside the
unit. Power up the tool and verify tool response. Power down the tool. Unscrew the split nut from the
torpedo barrel. Disconnect the conductors. Place the downhole rope socket in the adapter that threads to
the fishing spear. Thread the uphole torpedo housing to the fishing swivel and overshot. At this point, the
wireline mechanical connection is used for cut and thread fishing and the electrical connections are stored
for later. Pull test the spear and overshot with the T-Bar intact.
CUT AND THREAD FISHING

Operations Guide 8
Standard cut and thread fishing is performed. Full body fishing is recommended. Direct the drill crew in
assembling the overshot. String the spear through the tool overshot and lower the cable overshot through
the first stand of pipe. Raise the stand immediately above the spear and reconnect the wireline. Pull 1000
pounds above normal tension on the wireline and have the rig crew screw the stand into the tool overshot.
Remove the T-Bar and lower the stand into the hole. Set the slips. Place the C-plate in the slot between the
rope socket housing and the spear. The cable is slacked until supported by the plate. Flag the wireline near
the drum to show latch position. Rig crew now uses tong pliers to release the overshot from the spear.
Raise the overshot to the derrickman for insertion into the next stand of pipe. Again flag the wireline to
indicate thread position. Continue this process until reaching the predetermined depth for placing the
CSES/DCSD and redressing the wireline electrical connection. Set the slips on the pipe now in the hole and
clamp the T-Bar on top of it.
CABLE SIDE ENTRY SUB (CSES) and

DOWNHOLE CABLE SEVERING DEVICE (DCSD)
The purpose of the DCSD is to remotely cut the cable and allow removal of the cable from the well in the
event that the drill pipe becomes stuck after engaging the fish(See Appendix C). The CSES (commonly
used for TLC - Tough Logging Conditions) allows the cable to crossover from inside the drillpipe (below
the CSES) to outside the drillpipe (above the CSES).
Lay these two subs on the rig floor next to the downhole cable.
• ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
With the wireline supported by the T-Bar, remove the wireline spear, overshot, swivel, and weights. Feed
the downhole cable up through the DCSD, up through the CSES and out of the side entry port. Now the
conductors from the uphole cable can be reconnected to the downhole conductors by joining the male and
female pins within the double ended torpedo. Make sure that the inner sleave is used to lock the joining
rope sockets in place. Thread the split nut into the torpedo barrel. Now power up the tool.
The wireline is not clamped to the CSES; it must pass freely through the port.
Thread the CSES/DCSD together and lift vertical with a fastline. Lower the next stand of pipe onto the top
of the CSES. Screw CSES/DCSD sub assembly up into the string.
Attaching the DCSD/CSES to the bottom of a stand of drill pipe creates a larger moment arm that keeps the
DCSD/CSES from “cocking” due to the forces from the wireline.
The winchman will work the cable up and down to insure that the double ended torpedo will hold. Remove
the T-Bar and make up to the pipe set in the slips.
TRIPPING PIPE INTO THE HOLE
With the wireline on the outside of drill pipe it is now possible to just trip pipe into the hole. The double
ended torpedo will remain at the rig floor as each stand of pipe is lowered. This will speed up fishing
operations.
RETRIEVING THE FISH
Operations Guide 9
As the tool overshot approaches the fish, monitor downhole force closely. Work the overshot over the
toolstring with 1,000 to 2,000 pounds uphole tension and do not break the weak point. Also pay close
attention to maximum compression/tension limits as shown in appendix D.
LOGGING TLC STYLE
Now that the tool is free, begin TLC style logging out of the hole. Maintain constant safe pull tension (not
normal tension) on the line, where Safe Pull tension = cable weight + 1000 pounds.
Quality check the tension curve on the log. It should gradually decrease when uplogging. An experienced
winch operator is necessary.
Remember that the torpedo will stay above the rig floor unless a log overlap or logging deeper than the
stuck depth is necessary. Follow TLC guidelines for descending into the hole and observe maximum
tension/compression limits for the toolstring shown in appendix D.
Clear the floor as the double ended torpedo goes over the upper sheave, lower sheave, and cable drum.
This is a precautionary step. The double ended torpedo will easily clear the 30 inch sheaves and have no
problem spooling onto the winch cable drum.
Power down tool when logging is completed.
PULLING OUT OF HOLE
When the LWF assembly reaches the floor, set the slips on the pipe just below. Unscrew the pipe hanging
in the derrick from the top of the CSES. Rack back that stand of pipe. Connect the T-Bar to the wireline
and pull the weak point out of the head using the elevators. Spool the cable back onto the drum.
The cable is left hanging from the upper sheave wheel. The cable is cut near the lower sheave so that the
drum of cable can be packaged to be removed from the skid unit. Tie the two ends of the cable hanging
from the top sheave out of the way until later when the top sheave can be lowered.
The rest of the drill pipe and the logging tool can be removed from the hole.

APPENDIX A
“COMMON PROBLEMS DURING LOGGING WHILE FISHING”
Common accidents occurring during Cut and Thread Fishing operation:

1. Something unscrews. May be caused by not using a cable swivel.
2. The no-go does not allow passage of the Fishing torpedo. This results in tedious process of
cutting the cable every 90 feet on the way out of the hole.
3. A non-Schlumberger rope socket is used to secure the cable spear and overshot to the cable.
In particular the rope socket using a one slip insert to tighten on the cable appears to be most
unreliable. After threading several stands of pipe it is not uncommon for the slip to wear
smooth and allow the rope socket to drop into the hole.
a)If the spear end comes free then the cable will be lost down hole. This may cost the
client the well and most likely will take several days to retrieve the cable from the
well.
b)If the overshot end comes free then the no-go will catch the cable. This requires that
the rig crew trip pipe back out of the hole until the no-go is back at the surface. The
crew then rebuilds the rope socket and fishing starts again.
4. Frequently, the fishing hand will try to twist the tool out of the overshot. In the Gulf Coast
this tool is generally the AMS. The AMS is tapered such that twisting causes wiring and
structural damage near the resistivity cell. A typical rebuild requires replacing:
a)upper body of the tool (or mandrel) $1496

b)resistivity rings $2244
c)assorted wiring, connectors, and insulators $ 300
d)16 man hours $ 400
Grand Total $4440
The preferred method of extraction is to back off the overshot, remove the control, clear
debris from around the grapple using a water hose, and gently strike the tool against the rig floor.
This will generally free the tool and grapple from the overshot. If this does not work you may now
rotate the tool without damaging the tool.

APPENDIX C
“DOWNHOLE CABLE SEVERING DEVICE”
Need
Conventional wireline logging allows the extraction of wireline by pulling the weak point and spooling up
the cable. Tough Logging Conditions (TLC) drill pipe assisted logging requires that a special rope socket
be built. Each TLC job is engineered using a rope socket with many of its inner and outer wires removed.
In the event that drill pipe becomes stuck while using TLC, the weak point will yield when it strikes the side
entry port. Explosive cutters were not a viable alternative since the cable runs along the outside of drill
pipe. Since Logging While Fishing (LWF) is elected after an unsuccessful wireline descent it is not
possible to re-engineer the weak point. Therefore, it was necessary to come up with a method to sever the
logging cable remotely.
LWF Application
The Downhole Cable Severing Device(DCSD) remotely cuts the cable if the drill pipe becomes stuck
during the logging while fishing operation allowing the removal of the wireline.
Operation
If the drill pipe becomes stuck after the DCSD and CSES are in the hole and the decision has been made by
the client to get the wireline cable out of the way, the DCSD is the most reliable and safest tool to use. The
T-Bar must be placed on the wireline cable to first part the weak point in the Logging Equipment Head.
The T-Bar must be pulled up by the draw works to be safe meaning that the drill pipe stuck in the hole will
not be supported by the draw works for this step. Remove the T-Bar and spool up the cable with the winch
unit. Stop the winch when the rope socket bell housing is close to the DCSD. Make a determination if the
weight of cable from the top sheave down to the DCSD is enough to keep the cable from whipping out of
the hole after being cut. It may be safer to use the T-Bar and draw works again at this step. The sequence
of events in the DCSD start with the wireline bell housing being pulled up against a spring-loaded mandrel
in the lower part of the DCSD. The compression of this spring is against a shear bolt with a shearing range
of 3,000 to 4,000 pounds of force. The shearing of this bolt releases a spring-loaded cutting blade. The
bell housing and about 6 inches of cable is forced down as the mandrel springs back into its relaxed
position. The cutting blade also retracts to its relaxed position. The wireline is now free to pass through the
CSES and up the hole. Now the inside of the drill pipe and all subs are clear for backoff tools.
Field test
The DCSD can cut all types of Schlumberger wirelines and has been tested to consistently cut a 7V52P size
cable.
TLC Application
Another application for the DCSD will be for TLC jobs. If it is possible to sever the cable remotely in the
event that drill pipe becomes stuck, then why engineer a rope socket for each job? It is a common practice
to log as much of the well as possible using conventional logging and completing the more deviated portion
using TLC. Rebuilding and testing TLC engineered rope sockets take 1 to 2 additional hours. This switch
over time can be eliminated using the DCSD.
