Product Design and Development of a Wireline Equipment Monitoring Device

BACKGROUND​

The primary application of wireline equipment in oilfields is for well logging, which involves lowering sensors and instruments into a wellbore to gather data on the geology and properties of the formation of the rock layers. Our client, an Oil and Gas Equipment Manufacturing company, wanted us to develop a custom wireline equipment monitoring device to improve the quality and accuracy of their slickline and e-line operations

ENGAGEMENT MODEL

The overall project was completed over a Fixed Price Model including a Knowledge Transfer exercise based on a firm requirements specifications document with a clearly defined scope and agreed timeframe.

KEY FEATURES OF THE PRODUCT

Adequate Design

An Explosion-proof DAQ panel collected and transferred wireline sensor data accurately.

Local & Remote Monitoring

Visualization of data locally and remotely has enhanced decision-making capabilities

Real-time Monitoring

Realtime data logging of critical parameters from start to stop of wireline penetration into oil well improved operational efficiency.

Alarms & Controls

Emergency shutdown, manual override, and alarms for potential abnormalities ensured safe and easy system operation and maintenance

DESIGN AND ENGINEERING

After a thorough analysis of client specifications and harsh operating conditions, we proposed an optimal design housed in an explosion-proof DAQ panel. The device captured all critical parameters from sensor line penetration to retrieval. Considering the need for remote and local monitoring, hardware with built-in controller, communication, and visualization capabilities was chosen to optimize size and cost.

Upon stopping the process, our design provided for seamless and complete data transfer in the form of a Log ASCII Standard (LAS) file format, a standard file format common in the oil-and-gas and water well industries to store well log information, enabling our client to easily perform further analytics.

TECHNOLOGIES USED

FIELD TESTING

Once the device was designed and manufactured, a series of tests were conducted to certify that it met the client’s specifications and requirements. The monitoring device was tested under various operating conditions and integration with sensors after which it was verified that it could withstand the harsh environment.

A knowledge transfer session was conducted at the client site to instruct operators on how to use the product effectively. A comprehensive manual detailing the system’s operation and maintenance procedures were also provided.

CONCLUSION

Our team of product designers and engineers successfully designed and developed a product that met the client’s specifications and requirements while ensuring that the operators could utilize the device to its fullest potential and achieve optimal results. The Explosion-proof DAQ panel was designed with high degrees of accuracy and precision, thoroughly capable of collecting and transferring sensitive data from the wireline sensors all the way up to the cloud Platform for monitoring and analysis.

FUTURE PROJECT

Contract Manufacturing of the product to be taken up by CONSYST to cater to an estimated requirement of 25-30 systems per year.
