The term wireline usually refers to a cabling technology used by operators of oil and gas wells to lower equipment into the well. In its simplest and most used form, the wireline simply consists of a single strand of metal wire most commonly 1/8" in diameter(sometimes referred to as slickline). In some cases, the inner core of the wireline includes insulated wires which provide power to equipment located at the end of the cable ( Usually referred to as E-line)and provides a pathway for electrical telemetry for communication between equipment at each end of the cable (usually downhole and uphole).
