Abstract
Described herein are systems and techniques related to a propulsion device that moves equipment along a wellbore. While wellbore equipment may be deployed in a wellbore using gravity or with the flow of a fluid like drilling mud, in certain instances, such techniques are not well suited to this task. Systems and techniques of the present disclosure may be applied to deploy tools in a wellbore by controlling motion of a self-propelled device along the wellbore. This may include using wheels, tracks, propellers, impellers, or other devices to propel tools into a wellbore even when the wellbore has perforations that may disrupt conventional deployment techniques. Techniques of the present disclosure may include transferring power to a wellbore apparatus via one or more elements of a fiber optic cable.
