Abstract:
1. An assembly for delivering downhole equipment to a well at an oilfield, the assembly comprising: a drum for positioning at the oilfield adjacent the well; a well access line coupled to said drum for accessing the well with the downhole equipment; a line length detection mechanism for positioning at the oilfield for interfacing said well access line to meter an amount thereof in the well; a line tension detection mechanism coupled to said well access line to monitor a tension thereof; and a processor having a pre-loaded drum and line characteristic data stored thereon and coupled to said mechanisms to acquire information relative to the metered amount and the monitored tension, said processor configured to run a computation of the pre-loaded characteristic data and the acquired information for real-time monitoring of load on the drum.
