A well-logging system includes a downhole tool coupled to a cable. The downhole tool may measure physical parameters of a wellbore via a first plurality of sensors. The well-logging system may include wellbore equipment including a winch. The winch may traverse the downhole tool through the wellbore by spooling or unspooling the cable. The well-logging system may also include a second plurality of sensors that may measure operational parameters of the wellbore equipment. The well-logging system may further include an automation controller that is communicatively coupled to the first plurality of sensors and the second plurality of sensors. A set of defined operating instructions may be prepared during the assembly of the job. The automation controller may control the wellbore equipment based at least in part on feedback from the first plurality of sensors, feedback from the second plurality of sensors, and the defined operating instructions.

Wireline automation systems and methods

A method can include receiving information associated with a conveyance of equipment in a borehole via a cable. The method may further include determining cable tension values based at least in part on a model and at least a portion of the information and conveying the equipment in the borehole via the cable; acquiring a cable tension value via one or more sensors. The method may further include comparing the acquired cable tension value to at least one of the determined cable tension values and, based at least in part on the comparing, setting a cable tension limit for further conveying of the equipment in the borehole via the cable.
