In conventional wireline intervention shifting service, the success of the operation is heavily dependent on the engineer’s experience and knowledge. Any error in judgement in the process of the operation could lead to nonproductive time or even total failure. Once the operation is completed, the post-job processing and report preparation also require significant manual effort and are extremely time consuming, which often leads to an inadequate or incomplete report. These challenges are addressed by advanced surface acquisition software. The aim of the surface software is to redefine the selective shifting workflow by leveraging the available instrumentation, streamlining and simplifying operation procedures, eliminating or reducing typical human errors, and greatly reducing the burden on the field engineers for post-job deliverables with automated real-time data collection, processing, and report generation.
