Coiled tubing
Given the diversity of coiled tubing well-intervention data, many acquisition labels are often missing or inaccurate. The authors of this paper present a multimodal framework that automatically identifies job type and technologies used during an acquisition.

TAQA is commencing its journey into the year 2024 with the successful launching of many innovative coiled tubing technologies and solutions, technologies that will transform the nature of well intervention operations into a new era. Read this article and dive into the high-tier coiled tubing technology offerings from TAQA.
The advances presented in the selected papers, and many others, would not be possible without improvements in our understanding of materials, how to protect coiled tubing pipes, how to get the best performance out of them under downhole conditions that are becoming every day more extreme, and how to preserve wellbore completion at the same time.

This study highlights the strategic implementation of coiled tubing to convey perforating guns in extended-reach wells, overcoming the lockup effect through the deployment of downhole tractors and real-time monitoring tools. -
This study emphasizes the vital need to evaluate well conditions and working-fluid compatibility with coiled tubing materials to prolong coiled tubing operational life.
-
This paper describes the application of an underbalanced coiled tubing technology in tight sandstones, using an integrative approach that incorporates petrophysical, geophysical, and reservoir engineering data.
-
Coiled tubing has a key role to play, with strong arguments for itself: It is used throughout the life of a well, from exploration to abandonment, and its flexibility of use, combined with recent technology developments in pipe materials, real-time downhole telemetry, and specialized downhole tools—just to name a few—opens avenues to perform in a rigless manner many o…
