Claim:
1. An assembly for downhole use in a well at an oilfield, the assembly comprising: equipment at a surface of the oilfield comprising a data acquisition unit and a line tension meter, the line tension meter coupled to the data acquisition unit; a non-power transferring fiber optic slickline, wherein the non-power transferring fiber optic slickline comprises at least one fiber encased in an outer protective jacket, wherein the outer protective jacket comprises two separate corrosion resistant metal layers, wherein the corrosion resistant metal layers are concentrically separated by an annulus, and wherein the annulus is filled with a composite of polymeric tie material, strength material, or combinations thereof; and an opto-electric interface comprising a logging head connected with the non-power transferring fiber optic slickline, wherein two seals that interface with the outer protective jacket of the non-power transferring fiber optic slickline are located in the logging head, wherein the opto-electric interface further comprises an optical feed through seal in which optical fibers are separated from the slickline, and wherein the optical feed through seal comprises glass fibers sealed within a metal cavity; and a downhole tool coupled to the opto-electric interface for disposal in the well and configured to perform a downhole application by gathering downhole data and for communicating, in real-time, between the data acquisition unit and the downhole tool over said optical slickline, the downhole tool comprising a battery for powering the tool, wherein the data acquisition unit is configured to direct the surface equipment and thereby direct deployment of the downhole tool into the well and out of the well, and to adjust the operation of the downhole tool, and to adjust the downhole application, initiate an additional downhole application in real-time without removing the down hole tool from the well, or to control the deployment of the downhole tool into the well and out of the well based on data acquired from the downhole tool or based on slickline tension data from the tension meter, or based on data acquired from the downhole tool and based on slickline tension data from the tension meter.
