Abstract: The disclosure relates to a sleeve for fitting around a spooling drum: the sleeve comprises at least a groove for receiving a conveying element to be spooled around the drum, is made of flexible material and is configured so as to be able to take a first configuration in which the sleeve forms a flat sheet, the groove extending in a direction, called spooling direction, and a second configuration in which the sleeve forms a cylinder, with the groove is situated on an external face of the cylinder.

Abstract: Oil field services apparatus and method. The apparatus comprises a conveyance system operable for lowering and retrieving a downhole tool in and out of a wellbore. The conveyance system comprises a drum operable for rotating and receiving a line connectable with the downhole tool, a motor-generator mechanically connected with the drum, and an energy storage electrically connected with the motor-generator. The motor-generator may be operable for receiving electrical energy to impart torque to the drum and receiving torque from the drum to generate electrical energy. The energy storage may be operable for storing electrical energy received from the motor-generator.
