Wireless Link To Send Data Between Coil Tubing And The Surface
Abstract
A well system and method for wirelessly communicating in a wellbore. The well system may comprise a coil tubing, a transceiver, a secondary transceiver, and an information handling system, wherein the information handling system is configured to record information from the transceiver. A method for wirelessly communicating in a wellbore may comprise disposing a coil tubing into the wellbore, recording a measurement with the transceiver, communicating the measurement from the transceiver to a secondary transceiver, transmitting the measurement from the secondary transceiver to one or more additional secondary transceivers, and retrieving the measurement from the one or more additional secondary transceivers by an information handling system.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A well system comprising
a coil tubing: a transceiver, wherein the transceiver is disposed about an end of the coil tubing opposite a surface; a secondary transceiver, wherein the secondary transceiver is disposed on a casing; and an information handling system, wherein the information handling system is configured to record information from the transceiver.
2 . The well system of claim 1 , wherein the transceiver further comprise a sensor, wherein the sensor configured to take measurements in a wellbore.
3 . The well system of claim 1 , wherein a downhole tool is disposed at the end of the coil tubing opposite the surface.
4 . The well system of claim 3 , wherein the transceiver is disposed on the downhole tool.
5 . The well system of claim 1 , wherein the transceiver is operable to communicate with the secondary transceiver wirelessly.
6 . The well system of claim 1 , wherein the transceiver is operable to communicate with the secondary transceiver through an acoustic pathway.
7 . The well system of claim 1 , further comprising a downhole tool, wherein the downhole tool is a sampler, gauge, plug, shut-in tool, or triggering mechanism.
8 . The well system of claim 1 , further comprising a knuckle joint, a trigger, and a sampler.
9 . The well system of claim 8 , wherein the transceiver is disposed on the trigger.
10 . The well system of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of transceivers disposed on the coil tubing and a plurality of secondary transceivers disposed on the casing.
11 . A method for wirelessly communicating in a wellbore comprising:
disposing a coil tubing into the wellbore, wherein a transceiver is disposed about an end of the coil tubing opposite a surface; recording a measurement with the transceiver, wherein the transceiver comprises a sensor; communicating the measurement from the transceiver to a secondary transceiver; transmitting the measurement from the secondary transceiver to one or more additional secondary transceivers; and retrieving the measurement from the one or more additional secondary transceivers by an information handling system.
12 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the communicating the measurement from the transceiver to a secondary transceiver is performed wirelessly.
13 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the communicating the measurement from the transceiver to a secondary transceiver is performed through an acoustic pathway.
14 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising pulling up the coil tubing with the hoist to transmit the measurement.
15 . The method of claim 11 , wherein a triggering mechanism and a sampler are connected to the coil tubing through a knuckle joint.
16 . The method of claim 15 , further comprising transmitting a command from the information handling system to the triggering mechanism and triggering the sampler.
17 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the communicating the measurement is performed real time during a drill string test.
18 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the communicating the measurement is performed real time during a production logging test.
19 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising attaching a downhole tool to the coil tubing.
20 . The method of claim 19 , wherein the transceiver is disposed on the downhole tool.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
