Method and system for coupling downhole tools from different well bores

Abstract

A method for coupling downhole tools from different well bores is provided. The method comprises establishing a communication network between the downhole tools, addressing the downhole tools, providing communication channels between the downhole tools and synchronizing data communications between the downhole tools via the communication channels.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for coupling downhole tools from different well bores, the method comprising:
 establishing a communication network between the downhole tools;   addressing the downhole tools;   providing communication channels between the downhole tools; and   synchronizing data communications between the downhole tools via the communication channels.   
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein network sessions for the data communications are autonomously joined or created by the downhole tools. 
     
     
         3 . The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising providing hosting and master services to the downhole tools. 
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein each of the communication channels is secured with at least one of token and password. 
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the downhole tools are addressed via a telemetry cloud system. 
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the communication channels are bi-directional channels to transfer bi-directional information and/or data between the downhole tools. 
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein each the downhole tools is included in a BHA (Bottom Hole Assembly) system. 
     
     
         8 . A system for coupling downhole tools from different well bores, the system comprising:
 two or more downhole tools; and   a network system configured to:
 establish a communication network between the downhole tools; 
 address the downhole tools; 
 provide communication channels between the downhole tools; and 
 synchronize data communications between the downhole tools via the communication channels. 
   
     
     
         9 . The system according to  claim 8 , wherein each of the downhole tools autonomously joins to or creates at least one network session for the data communications. 
     
     
         10 . The system according to  claim 8 , further comprising a server for providing hosting and master services to the downhole tools. 
     
     
         11 . The system according to  claim 8 , wherein each of the communication channels is secured with at least one of token and password. 
     
     
         12 . The system according to  claim 8 , wherein the network system comprises a telemetry cloud system, and the downhole tools are addressed via the telemetry cloud system. 
     
     
         13 . The system according to  claim 8 , wherein the communication channels are bi-directional channels to transfer bi-directional information and/or data between the multiple downhole tools. 
     
     
         14 . The system according to  claim 8 , wherein each of the downhole tools is included in a BHA (Bottom Hole Assembly) system.
