Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for improved wireline tension measurement and calibration in an oil-and-gas setting. An example method can include providing a machine-learning model configured to receive inputs associated with wireline tension. The inputs can include, for example, well-trajectory information, fluid density, fluid viscosity, toolstring type, cable type, and friction coefficient. The method can include providing some or all of those inputs and receiving an output from the machine-learning model of an estimated wireline tension. The method can also include receiving a second output of a wireline location recommended for measurement. A user can then perform a measurement at the suggested location and provide the measurement as an additional input to the machine-learning model.

Abstract: Techniques for reduced contamination formation evaluation are provided. The techniques relate to drawing fluid into a downhole tool positionable in a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation having a virgin fluid and a contaminated fluid therein. Fluid is drawn into at least two inlets for receiving the fluids from the formation. At least one evaluation flowline is fluidly connected to at least one of the inlets for passage of the virgin fluid into the downhole tool. At least one cleanup flowline is fluidly connected to the inlets for passage of the contaminated fluid into the downhole tool. At least one fluid circuit is fluidly connected to the evaluation flowline and/or cleanup flowlines for selectively drawing fluid therein. At least one fluid connector is provided for selectively establishing a fluid connection between the flowlines. At least one sensor is provided for measuring downhole parameters in one of the flowlines.
