Wireline Coring Bits

Wireline drilling, compared with conventional drilling, is a more advanced drilling technique that uses a specialized cable or wire to retrieve core samples. In wireline drilling, the drill bit is separated from the drill string by a wireline cable, which runs down the borehole. After the core bit cuts through the rock, the core barrel is lifted up the casing by the wireline cable. This process is repeated until the desired depth is reached. Unlike conventional drilling, wireline drilling allows the drill string and mud-rotary system to remain in place, reducing the drill time and improving core recovery rates.
