By using heavy gauge r.e., large diameter) Primary conductors, mare conductive material, e.g., copper, can be packed into a given cross-sectional area of the cable.
Thus, the cable can provide increased power delivery capacity and improved data transmission characteristics when compared to a standard heptacable. The cable includes secondary conductors that allow it to be backward compatible with existing standard heptacables. The improved power capacity is especially advantageous for current and future downhole applications requiring higher power, while still meeting environmental, packaging, and flexibility requirements.

DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
FICx 1 is a cross-sectional view of a heptacable;
FICx 2 is a cross-sectional view of a wireline cable of the invention having a center conductor; and 25 FICx 3 is a cross-sectional view of a wireline cable of the invention having a center filler rod.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Referring to FIGS 2, cable 10, defining a longitudinal axis 15, has four primary conductors 20 and five secondary conductors 30. A bedding layer 40 surrounds conductors 20 and 30, and an armor shield 50 surrounds bedding layer 40. The cable 10 has an overall diameter, including the armor shield 50, of less than about 0.55 inches.
Primary conductors 20 are used to transmit power and data along cable 10.
Primary conductors 20 are insulated conductors arranged in a cross pattern extending about longitudinal axis 15 and define interstices 90 between adjacent primary conductors. Primary conductors 20 are twisted together around a secondary conductor 30 or a center filler rod 85 extending along longitudinal axis 15, as described below. At a given cross section of cable 10, primary conductors 20 are symmetrically located around longitudinal axis 15 in a square configuration. Primary conductors 20 are made of large stranded copper or copper alloy conductors 55 such that there are two sets of two diametrically opposed conductors 55. The conductors 55 are insulated with a thermoplastic or thermoset material 60 such as, for example, Teflon.
Secondary conductors 30 are also used to transmit power and data when needed and further provide cable 10 with backward compatibility, e.g., with a heptacable.
Secondary ~5 conductors 30 are five insulated conductors extending about and along longitudinal axis 15.
Four secondary conductors 30 are twisted together with primary conductors 20 and are partially nested in outer interstices 90 defined by primary conductors 20. At any given cross section of cable 10, secondary conductors 20 are symmetrically located in a cross pattern with two sets of two diametrically opposed secondary conductors 30. A fifth secondary 2o conductor 30 extends along longitudinal axis 15, wrapped by primary conductors 20.
Secondary conductors 30 are made of small stranded copper or copper alloy conductors.
These conductors are insulated with a thermoplastic or thermoset material similar to the primary conductors.
Bedding layer 40 wraps around primary and secondary conductors 20 and 30.
25 Depending on the application for cable 10, bedding layer 40 may include a binder tape.
Together, bedding layer 40 and conductors 20 and 30 define interstitial voids 90 within cable core, which is filled with a semi-conductive or non-conductive filler 100.
Filler 100 is a cross-linkable material such as, for example, nitrite rubber.
Armor shield 50 wraps around bedding layer 40 to provide cable 10 with added 3o strength and a current return path. Armor shield 50 includes two layers of steel wire armor wound in opposite directions, i.e., contrahelically.
Referring to FIG. 3, in another embodiment of the invention, secondary conductor 30 extending along longitudinal axis 15 is replaced with a solid center filler rod 85. The center filler rod is made of thermoplastic or thermoset materials, most commonly fluoropolymers.
The filler rod may replace the conductor if the central conductor is not required for backwards compatibility reasons.
A number of embodiments of the invention have been described. Nevertheless, it will be understood that various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
For example, primary conductors 20 and secondary conductors 30 can be made of conductors having different gauges. The gauges of the conductors 20, 30 can range from about 24 AWG to about 14 AWG. Cable 10 may include 0 to 5 secondary conductors 30.
For example, one cable adapted to be fully backward compatible with a standard heptacable has four primary conductors and five secondary conductors. Smaller conductors may be paired to replace the function of a larger conductor in a standard heptacable.
15 Depending on application of cable 10 or the need for backward compatibility, one or more of secondary conductors 30 can be replaced with one or more filler strands (not shown).
For example, if application of cable 10 requires only six conductors (and no secondary conductor 30 or filler rod 85 along longitudinal axis 15), then two secondary conductors 30 can be replaced with two filler strands. Filler strands help maintain circular cross section of 2o cable 10 and are less expensive than copper secondary conductors.
The bedding layer 40 may be covered with an extrudable material such as Teflon to serve as an armor-bedding layer.
Other embodiments are within the scope of the following claims.
