Exploring and drilling for oil requires using massive winches pulling cords and wires with massive diameters. Rather than setting up gigantic spools with each trip to a new well, companies like ASEP have built portable wireline trucks capable of controlling the movement of tubing and wire thousands and feet into the ground from a reverse-mounted lab station. The most popular trucks are based on the International medium-duty DuraStar line and include 5,500 PSI hydraulic controls.
