I was a tech on open hole, cased hole and production logging tools for over 8 years. One company I worked for also did slick line.

Is there any online courses platform to where's i start learning this course coiled tubing course cementing and wireline course

[@RonPaulCurrency]

funny how they say the other contractors screwed up so these wireline people are fixing the mess

[@michaelelder2487]

Hamza is mis-informed. I worked for OTIS Engineering and we always used slick wire for our operations. Shit happens, and people make mistakes out there in the gulf and on land. Traditional wireline wire is the gauge of a coat-hanger wire.

[@burtonh1]

I heard wireline jobs pay a ton of money.

[@andy431431]

Its a decent job with decent pay. A dying art to a degree as coil becomes more popular

[@Chris_at_Home]

Back in the 1980s I did this for 81/2 years as a tech on open hole, cased hole and production logging tools. The jobs then paid from about 70- 110 thousand a year. The engineers made the largest amount and us techs only made about 70. We got to stay inside when it was -40 though so it was a good job. $70 thousand then is about $190 in today’s dollars. The income stayed pretty flat over the years. I went into communications and we seemed to keep up with inflation a little better.

I talk to a lot of the wireline guys on location. They are the highest paid guys besides the company man. I’ve talked to at least 20 or so different guys and they all say they make 150-200k a year from only $21 an hour. They get a bonus every time they detonate something. And also when the job is complete

[@yehodisfelixramirez808]

Hey, I see your username says “oilfield”, and if you don’t mind me asking.. is it really worth it to work at the oilfield ? In my first years what are the chances of me making 100-150k ? No experience .. just looking for an opportunity

@@dwraywhere do you slickline? I’m doing slick line as a lead in Alaska and I make 25 an hour on the Slope. I do 2 on and 2 off.

I work for a inspection company that looks at all this stuff trying to get on with a coil tubing outfit or E-line outfit

[@lewiemcneely9143]

My boy did this for a while and said with some outfits it wasn't a job conducive to a long life span.

[@rockyrock1034]

Man this is Slickline . Not Wireline

[@hamzabenyahia9499]

This is slikline not wireline because in Wireline we are using electrical Wire (Cable)

[@apinder8610]

your comment makes no sence, just because it's Not E-Line doesn't mean it's not wireline. I am an E-Line Operator and I have expieriance in E-Line along with both Braided Line and Slickline , they are types of wireline.

[@gigia04]

here in brazil this kind of operation is known as wireline

[@finnamaretha9763]

good

[@MrJohnnyboyrebel]

That's a little mom and pop company compared to Schlumberger, the originators and perfecters of wireline logging. And like leftunsaid77 wrote, slickline isn't wireline.

[@benrobles752]

That little mom and pop operation is now owned by Schlumberger.

Slickline is like Wireline except with slickline you have to work. Oh Ya Lonkar was rescued by slumberger

[@benrobles752]

Slickline is wireline it's just not electric wireline.

[@dwray]

When you said except you have to work, I felt that lol. We run greaseless and I thought we were busting ass out here it's my first oil/wireline job and going outside every two hours for 5 minutes to swap guns I thought I was dying but they got boys out there breaking they backs 🤣
