Oleophobic And Hydrophobic Applications For Downhole Tools

A method comprising:

• applying a wettability modifier coating to one or more internal and/or external surfaces of a downhole tool;
• applying the wettability modifier coating on an external surface of a wireline by drawing the wireline with a drum pulley between a first spool and a second spool through a vat containing the wettability modifier coating to expose the external surface of the wireline to the wettability modifier coating, whereby friction of the external surface is reduced by the wettability modifier coating;
• attaching the conveyance to the downhole tool;
• disposing the downhole tool into a wellbore extending into a subterranean formation, wherein the wettability modifier coating is disposed on the internal and/or external surfaces of the downhole tool and the external surface of the wireline;
• traversing the wellbore with the downhole tool wherein the wettability modifier coating reduces friction to thereby prevent or mitigate sticking and/or key seating of the wireline in the wellbore;
• and
• removing the downhole tool from the wellbore.
