Wireline formation test

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-004168

A downhole measurement technique that obtains reservoir fluid samples and pressure data from specific zones in a wellbore. It involves lowering specialized tools on a wireline to isolate an interval and draw fluid into a sample chamber. This test provides information about reservoir pressure, fluid type, and permeability before casing is set.
