Wireline is the most common method of performing well intervention, using steel wires & cables (mechanical & electrical) to perform intervention work. 

The ComTrac technology is a new conveyance method for well intervention. With the increasing demand to intervene more efficient in wells that are increasing in complexity and length, and where the traditional well conveyance methods are being stretch to their limits our ComTrac technology provides a solution.
