By investing significantly in high-pressure equipment and top personnel, Bonnetts Wireline has proudly built a reputation as a leader in the slickline sector. We strive to keep our equipment, personnel and procedures up-to-date, always keeping up with the fast pace of technology.
We understand that equipment alone is not enough to provide great service. Our senior supervisors have decades of experience in the industry, with knowledge that separates our team from our competitors. Their experience involves all types of slickline work - from recorders and plug work to tubing and casing fishing.
We use a proven set of procedures during fishing operations, documenting operations every step of the way. We gather as much information as possible right from the beginning, ensuring all changes are well-communicated throughout the progression of the job.
Downhole conditions like deviation, high temperature and pressure, H2S, CO2, sand and scale can compound the difficulty of fishing operations. We are experienced in working in these environment types and can provide cost-effective, reliable recommendations to proceed - from personnel and pressure control equipment to line choice and necessary tools.
Wireline tools used for fishing operations are varied depending on the application and can be custom built. Our fishing operation tools and tool string components include:
Flow control equipment is designed to manipulate well production and can be integral to the tubing or casing. It can be run, retrieved or manipulated by wireline. We hold an extensive on-the-shelf selection of plugs, chokes and wireline tools required for removal, installation and flow control manipulation, including:
The Hi-Ex Gauge Hanger has a slim, high-expansion design, allowing it to be deployed on slickline through narrow restrictions or smaller completion tubing and set in larger ID liners/casings. The slim design also minimizes the restriction to flow, enabling better quality data to be recorded during production and injection conditions.
The QCT is a next-generation electronic firing head, specifically designed to fulfil the need for a cost-effective triggering device without compromising on safety or quality. Its memory-based electronic trigger system initiates ballistic firing heads, while its flexible design (based on a field replaceable control cartridge) allows for multiple deployment options including slickline, TCP and coil tubing.
The QCT firing sequence is programmable at surface for the relevant ballistic operations:
Bonnetts Wireline is experienced in horizontal wellbore sections in both pump down and static environments.
Our pump down operations use varied tool string components, allowing for upward jarring capability during fishing operations. We have also performed pump down memory logging operations in tubing and casing while our innovative high-deviation roller assemblies allow us to work closer to horizontal that at any time in the past.
Slickline perforating is most commonly done on tubing and can be performed either mechanically (by cutting a hole in the tubing wall) or with a shaped charge. Our perforators never leave debris on the back side, avoiding problems leading to tool or casing damage.
Our supervisors are trained and certified in the safe handling of perforator explosives. Our explosive perforators do not burn holes but punch clean, round holes of a specified diameter.
They have many uses, such as:
The Kinley "Sandline Cutter" cuts stuck lines or cables in almost any size of pipe (from coiled tubing to casing) and any line size (from slicklines and e-lines to 1-1/8" O.D. anchor lines). This technology has successfully been used in cuts as deep as 20,000 feet (more than 6,000 meters) in situations involving a range of line types, including some small coiled tubing under certain conditions. An Electronic Time Delay Cable Cutter is available for use in deviated wells or in wells where mud, sand, kinks and other obstructions can be obstacles.
How does it work? A Bonnetts operator will attach the Kinley Cutter to your line, with 60-minute timer. At the 60 min mark the timer sets off the propellant charge, forcing the knife to cut the line.
This solution allows you to save the line in a single piece, at a cost that is typically offset by the value of the saved line. It also saves you time when compared to alternative solutions, with each job taking only a couple of hours.

Kinley tools are highly regarded within the industry, and we are proud to be the exclusive provider of Kinley products in Canada.
The Kinley Perforator can be used to punch a round, clean hole ( 1/4" - 1/4" diameter) to circulate and kill the well, drain the tubing, prevent pulling out a wet string, circulate out annular sand bridge, open alternate zones when sliding sleeves can’t be opened, or in plunger lift installations.It can also be used to install check valves (up to 1/4" diameter) or orifice inserts to provide a one-way flow for inexpensive gas lift, chemical injection, or to circulate hot oil for paraffin removal.
It is available for most sizes and weights of pipe and coiled tubing (1.315" - 7" OD) and performs at temperatures up to 160°C (320°F) and at pressures as high as 72,000 kPa (10,500 PSI) on both slickline or electric line. It is safe to operate with no danger of damaging the casing, and is even counter-balanced to always fire toward the high side of a deviated well, avoiding penetration of adjacent strings.
When you need to know what’s going on downhole, pressure/temperature gauges may be the answer.
We understand important your data is. That’s why we only use the most reliable downhole gauges - designed for any pressure and temperature - and innovative techniques that have been put to the test in some of the most intricate operations and hostile environments.
Time is critical, and we strive to provide data reports within 24 hours. All our trucks are capable of sending data from location with the capacity to generate field reports in electronic or hard copy formats right in the truck.
When you need to unload fluid or initiate flow, Bonnetts Wireline has the knowledge, experience, and equipment to tackle any swabbing job.
We use a variety of mandrels, ranging from 3/4˝ to 3 1/2˝, that can swab from 1½˝ coil tubing to 7½˝ casing. We also have a wide selection of swabbing cups to meet the challenges of any in-line situation.
RF electronic dead weights are equipped on every wireline unit. The dual pressure sensors allow real-time monitoring of both tubing and casing during swabbing operations. All data is backed up on the unit and a pressure graph can be printed onsite.
Our single conductor slickline, or “eslickline”, is an alloy line suited to normal and extreme downhole environments. A variety of electronic tools can be run in real-time in conjunction with eslickline.
When run in conjunction with eslickline, a variety of electronic tools can be run in real-time or in memory mode. Operations include:
Our experienced team is on hand to offer technical assistance, from designing completions to optimizing existing production wells. We offer up solutions that save you time and money on the back side, while our strong relationships with service providers and vendors make it easy to source tools, equipment, design and manufacturing.
Our in-house expertise and proprietary software can help correctly size downhole chokes in the start-up and initial production phase of new wells. We get it right the first time, eliminating the trial and error typically associated with running downhole choke and saving you time and unnecessary expense.
Our wellbore modelling services can go hand-in-hand with downhole choke sizing, or as a separate service to troubleshoot production issues. We use wellbore configuration and flowing parameters to better understand current downhole flowing conditions. This information is then used to troubleshoot inflow issues, tubular problems or constraints as well as facility take-away impacts.
