  • Publication number: 20250369537
    Abstract: A cable protection apparatus can include a collet having a collet body and a collet bore, where the collet bore traverses through the collet body along its length, where the collet body is radially compressible along the collet length, where the collet bore has a reduced diameter when the collet body is compressed. The cable protection apparatus can also include an enclosure having an enclosure body, an enclosure bore, an enclosure channel, and an adjustment feature, where the enclosure bore traverses through the enclosure body along its length, where the enclosure channel traverses a thickness of the enclosure body to the enclosure bore along the enclosure length, where the enclosure bore traverses a receiving chamber disposed within the enclosure body, where the receiving chamber is configured to receive the collet, where the adjustment feature manipulates the enclosure body to apply a force to compress the collet body.

  • Patent number: 12435581
    Abstract: A wireline standoff can include a base comprising a base body having a base channel that traverses a thickness of the base body along its length, where the base channel has a width and a depth that are large enough to receive the wireline. The wireline standoff can also include an end piece having an end piece body having an end piece channel that traverses a thickness of the end piece body along the end piece length, where the end piece channel has a width and a depth that are large enough to receive the wireline. The base and the end piece are in a default position when the base channel and the end piece channel are aligned and in a secured position when the end piece is moved relative to the base so that the base channel and the end piece channel are misaligned with each other.
