Petroleum EngineeringIntroduction
The Coiled Tubing Specialist: Advanced Coiled Tubing & Wireline Applications course is a technical, hands-on program tailored for oil and gas professionals involved in well intervention, servicing, and completion operations. It provides an in-depth understanding of coiled tubing (CT) and wireline technologies, advanced applications, operational challenges, and integration techniques. The course emphasizes practical solutions for wellbore interventions, such as cleanouts, logging, perforating, stimulation, and fishing, while ensuring safety, efficiency, and well integrity.
This course combines theory, real-world case studies, and problem-solving exercises to help participants master complex coiled tubing and wireline applications in today’s demanding well environments.
Objective
- Understand the advanced operational principles of coiled tubing and wireline services.
- Apply CT and wireline tools for complex well intervention tasks.
- Plan and execute CT operations, including acidizing, milling, and fishing jobs.
- Integrate CT with wireline logging and perforating operations effectively.
- Identify and troubleshoot operational issues in high-pressure or deviated wells.
- Ensure safety and compliance during advanced well interventions.
- Interpret well data for performance optimization of CT and wireline operations.
Audience
- Coiled Tubing Engineers and Supervisors
- Wireline Operators and Technicians
- Well Intervention and Completion Engineers
- Field Service Engineers
- Production Engineers and Field Specialists

Methodology
Our courses are highly interactive, typically taking a case study approach that we have found to be an effective method of fostering discussions and transferring knowledge. Participants will learn by active participation during the program through the use of individual exercises, questionnaires, team exercises, training videos and discussions of “real life” issues in their organizations.
The material has been designed to enable delegates to apply all of the material with immediate effect back in the workplace.
