	*Electric Tools string vs. Fibre optic*

	Production logging with braided line • 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 •PLT 3-4ft long •No down hole electronics •HP/HT wells (300oC) •Shorter and faster rig up •Simple and reliable pressure seal around slickline •Services can be performed on wellhead deck (concurrent operations) •Eliminates need for rig (offshore operations)

	Note : SlickLINE for vertical and deviated wells StiffLINE for horizontal and extended reach wells (eliminating the need for wireline tractors etc)				Mock up of PLT tool assembly

Production logging with braided line

Intelligent Slickline

• 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)

• Long tools
• Down hole electronics
• Crane generally required
• Grease injection tubes required for pressure seal around braided wireline
