Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and device for transferring data relating to information obtained by a sensor from within a bore.
  • the invention has particular application to the transfer of data from within an oil or gas borehole.
  • Information about the formation around a bore hole can be obtained separately from the drilling operation by removing the drill and then inserting one or more sensors on a wire line which are operated to gather information.
  • Measurement whilst drilling (MWD) and logging whilst drilling (L D) techniques permit measurement of earth formation properties and mechanical properties of the drilling process. They have been developed to monitor characteristics of the borehole, its surroundings and the drilling process during the drilling operation.
  • MWD drilling mud is caused to flow down the centre of the drill string and then up around the drill string and a valve through which the drilling mud passes has been pulsed appropriately in accordance with the sensed data so that this pulsed code can be detected at the surface and the data extracted.
  • MWD usually taken to mean a measurement for direct use
  • LWD usually taken to mean measurements recorded for later use
  • Formation evaluation whilst drilling or whilst the drill string is in place is particularly valuable in applications where there is a high risk that repeated excursions into the borehole may result in equipment failure, where orientation of the sensors relative to the borehole is important and wire-line tools (inserted after the drilling process) may have to be conveyed by drill pipe or tubing. This includes the opportunity to measure whilst drilling as well as in any gaps between drilling activity, and as the drill string is extracted.
  • the earth formation properties may be deduced from measurements of natural Gamma Rays , formation resistivity, Neutron back-scatter, Gamma Ray Compton scattering, nuclear magnetic resonance response and acoustic properties.
  • Drilling performance can also be measured and used to enhance directional control and drilling efficiency. If conveyed to the surface, this information can aid real-time directional control.
  • Other parameters measured and of use at the surface are down-hole pressure, temperature, down-hole weight on bit and torque on bit and down-hole vibration and shock.
  • a method of transferring data relating to information obtained by a sensor from within a bore comprises : a. downloading the data from the sensor into a data store in a transfer unit, while the sensor is located in the bore ; and b. causing the transfer unit to be conveyed by a fluid medium along the bore to a position remote from the sensor.
  • the term bore is normally intended to refer to a hole drilled in the earth.
  • the bore could be any form of aperture into which the sensor could be positioned.
  • the bore could therefore include tubes, pipes and the like.
  • the amount by which the data transfer rate increases over conventional methods will depend on the capacity of the data store, the flow rate of the fluid medium, and the distance the transfer unit must be conveyed until it reaches the remote position.
  • transfer units in the form of electrically contactless memory chips which currently include about 8K bytes of non-volatile memory, a significant increase in the data transfer rate can be achieved.
  • these chips can be embedded within a protective and resilient casing which can withstand the harsh treatment to which the transfer unit will be exposed during its passage to the remote position.
  • the data can be extracted at the remote position, in a contactless way, without precise positioning of the transfer unit and the transfer units are ultimately available for reuse if collected.
  • the non-volatile memory is usually in the form of an
  • EPROM although EEPROMs or the like could also be used.
  • the senor will be mounted to a drill string in the case of MWD and LWD but the invention is also applicable to any simple logging system deployed within the borehole.
  • the transfer unit itself could include the sensor. However, this would lead to a more complex construction for the transfer unit which is less desirable .
  • step (a) comprises inductively transferring data from the sensor to the data store. This avoids the need for any electrical contact connection between the sensor and the data store.
  • the transfer unit could store data from a single sensor or more than one sensor.
  • the method further comprises repeating steps (a) and (b) with further transfer units.
  • This enables data from other sensors or further data from the same sensor but at a later time to be transferred to the remote position.
  • this allows the same data to be transferred to the data stores of successive transfer units in each repeated step (a) .
  • This latter approach reduces the risk of loss of data if a transfer unit is not retrieved or destroyed as may happen in the harsh environment of down-hole well drilling, thus any required degree of redundancy can be established.
  • the method further comprises the step of : c. extracting data from the data store.
  • the transfer units may simply be collected at the remote position, and then placed either manually or under robotic control in a suitable reading device which enables the data to be extracted from the data stores. Extraction could be achieved by filtering the returning fluid or alternatively, the fluid could simply be transferred into the region surrounding the bore hole opening so that the data stores can be collected from the ground. In the preferred approach, however, the transfer units are passed from the remote position along a path through a reading device for extracting data from the data stores whilst they are still immersed in the returning fluid. In order to reduce the possibility of damage to the electrical components of the transfer unit this step may comprise inductively transferring data from the data store to the uphole electronics. This avoids the need for any electrical contact. This leads to a more automated retrieval of data.
  • the transfer units could be partly magnetic or made buoyant to enable them to be more easily separated from the medium.
  • the transfer units could be colour coded or otherwise made distinguishable according to the origin of the data they carry.
  • the identification could also be used to provide an indication of the order in which the transfer units have been released. This could be a simple sequential numbering scheme or a more complex form of identification.
  • a bore logging tool data transfer device comprises a support attached in use to at least one bore logging tool sensor; a transfer unit holding section located on the support and having a size to hold at least one transfer unit, the transfer unit including a data store; a retainer for releasably holding a transfer unit in the transfer unit holding section; and a transfer system for transferring data from any bore logging tool sensor to the transfer unit store .
  • the transfer unit holding section is recessed into a housing of the device so that there is little effect on the action of the tool or damage to the transfer unit .
  • the retainer normally comprises a plug releasably mounted to the transfer unit holding section, and means for releasing the plug.
  • the means for releasing the plug typically comprises an explosive charge.
  • the plug may be released magnetically. This could be achieved either by providing the plug with a magnetic field and then applying a field with a like polarity to the plug to repel it from the transfer unit holding section.
  • a further alternative is to provide the transfer unit holding section with an extraction member which pushes the plug away from the holding section. Again this may be magnetically actuated.
  • each transfer unit holding section is adapted to hold a single transfer unit but in other cases, the transfer unit holding section may comprise a magazine for holding a number of such units which are sequentially released.

  • Figure 2 is a schematic view of an example of a transfer unit holding section
  • Figure 3 is a cross-section through a transfer unit;
  • Figures 4A and 4B illustrate schematically the reading and writing electronics respectively; and
  • Figure 5 illustrates an example of a reading device in more detail .
  • Figure 1 illustrates part of a down-hole well having a bore 1 into which is inserted a drill head 2 attached to a drill collar 3 which includes a sensor and communication section 4.
  • a mud pipe 5 with a clear central bore 6 extends down the centre of the tool.
  • the drill head 2 can be rotated by rotating the entire tool using a drive on the surface while drilling mud is pumped down the mud pipe 5. Additionally, the drill head can be rotated relative to the drill pipe by the action of a mud driven turbine. The mud exits through apertures 7 and returns around the tool as shown by arrows 8.
  • the sensing device 9 comprises an acoustic logging device while the sensing device 10 comprises a formation resistivity sensor .
  • the sensing device 9 includes sensing electronics 11 and the like for sensing acoustic properties of the surrounding formation and is controlled by a microprocessor 12.
  • the microprocessor 12 regularly samples the received signals and feeds these to a selected transfer unit 13 in one of four transfer unit holding sections 14.
  • the transfer unit holding section comprises a recess 20 formed in a ceramic or resin jacket 21 which extends along a section of the tool adjacent to the sensor in section 4.
  • An annular groove 22 is provided in the wall of the recess 20 and this receives a corresponding annular flange 23 of a retaining cap 24.
  • the inner surface 25 of the cap 24 and the surface of the recess 20 are correspondingly shaped to define a space 26 in which a transfer unit or "marble" 13 is retained.
  • An inductive coupling loop 27 is embedded in the jacket 21 and extends around part of the cavity 26 and is connected by wires 28 to the microprocessor 12.
  • the rear of the cavity 26 is defined by a moulded explosive ejection charge 29 which can be triggered by the microprocessor 12 via wires 30.
  • the rear of the transfer unit holding section is defined by a stainless steel pressure housing 31.
  • FIG. 3 The construction of the marble 13 is shown in Figure 3.
  • This comprises a MIFARE MF2ICD80 smart card IC 40 located at the centre of a spherical body 41 formed from protective and resilient ceramic or resin and at the base of a bore 42 filled with a resin plug 43 keyed in position via a groove 44.
  • the smart card IC 40 includes an aerial or coupling loop 45.
  • the microprocessor 12 When the microprocessor 12 wishes to transfer data to the surface, the data is extracted from the sensing electronics 11 and passed to a selected one of the transfer unit holding sections 14. The data is supplied along lines 28 to the appropriate coupling loop 27 where it is inductively coupled into the smart card IC 40 of the corresponding marble 13 and stored in none volatile memory in the chip.
  • Figure 4B illustrates the data transfer electronics in more detail where it can be seen that the microprocessor 12 communicates with a MIFARE IS014443A interface IC 60.
  • the microprocessor 12 may store a time stamp and/or an indicator of the sensor from which the data has been supplied.
  • the marble may have pre-stored in it identification information.
  • the microprocessor 12 sends a signal along the lines 30 to activate the explosive charge 29 which forces the marble 13 radially outwardly, breaking the flange 23 of the cap 24 thus releasing the marble 13 into the upward flow 8 of the drilling mud.
  • the marble 13 is conveyed up the bore 1 and is collected by passing the retrieved mud through a filter 50, the filtered mud then being discarded or reused.
  • the mud may be allowed to flow on to the ground surrounding the bore hole allowing the marble 13 to be collected from the ground.
  • FIG. 4A illustrates a reading device electronically configured as shown in Figure 4A.
  • This will also be provided with a MIFARE IS014443A interface IC 46 coupled to an inductive loop 47 so that the data in the non volatile memory of the IC 40 can be read and passed to up-hole analysing electronics 49.
  • the data can then be analysed in a conventional manner.
  • Figure 5 illustrates an alternative reading device in which each marble 13 is caused to flow through a set of three orthogonal helmholtz coupling coils 65-67, the data being extracted from the non volatile memory as the marble flows through the device.
  • the arrangement of the helmholtz coupling coils enables the data to be extracted from the transfer unit 13 without full knowledge of the position or orientation of the transfer unit 13.
