Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for downhole communication and an apparatus for remote actuation of a downhole tool.
- the invention relates to a method for downhole communication with, and an apparatus for actuation of, tools in an oil or gas well.
- Radio frequency identification provides a useful method for communicating with downhole tools and devices.
- RFID Radio frequency identification
- One arrangement for remote operation of circulation subs using RFID is described in GB Patent No 2420133B, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- the most commonly used method of transmitting data using RFID makes use of a signal modulation system known as amplitude shift keying
- ASK is a form of signal modulation that represents digital data as variations in the amplitude of a carrier wave having a constant frequency and phase.
- ASK is generally the cheapest, most well known and readily available system for
- RFID communication using ASK is typically considered the preferred method for downhole communication in oil and gas wells. According to the present invention there is provided a method of downhole communication comprising the steps of:-
- Downhole as used herein is intended to refer to a volume defined by a wellbore, such as an open hole or a cased/completed wellbore.
- the method can include programming the tag and the reader to
- Step (a) can include programming the tag with a radio frequency identification signal in the form of a carrier wave having at least two different frequencies.
- Step (a) can include programming the tag with a radio frequency identification signal in the form of a carrier wave having two different frequencies.
- the method of communication can include programming the tag to emit a radio frequency identification signal in the form of a carrier wave having two discrete frequencies, wherein the two discrete frequencies transmit binary information to the downhole reader.
- the method can include selecting a carrier wave having at least two discrete frequencies that are in the frequency range between 10 kilohertz and 200 kilohertz.
- the at least two frequencies forming the signal can be selected in the frequency range between 100 and 150 kilohertz. Even more preferably, the frequencies of the carrier wave forming the signal can be selected in the frequency range 120 to 140 kilohertz. Most preferably, the frequencies can be selected in the frequency range 124 to 136 kilohertz. Step (a) can include selecting a carrier wave having two discrete frequencies: 124 kilohertz; and 134 kilohertz.
- the method can include spacing the discrete frequencies by a minimum quantity. As a result, the change in the discrete frequencies of the carrier wave can be more easily identifiable by the downhole reader in a variety of downhole conditions.
- the minimum frequency difference between two signals can be greater than 2 kilohertz (kHz), for example, frequencies of 128 and 132 kHz, separated by 4 kHz.
- kHz kilohertz
- frequencies can be at least 5 kilohertz, for example, frequencies of 127 and 134 kHz, separated by 7 kHz. Most preferably, the minimum difference between the frequencies can be at least 8 kilohertz, for example, frequencies of 124 and 134 kHz, separated by 10 kHz. This can ensure that the at least two discrete frequencies are sufficiently distinguishable from one another by the downhole reader.
- the method can also include maintaining a constant amplitude of the carrier wave.
- the method can include programming the reader to transmit data to the at least one tag via a radio frequency identification signal in the form of a discrete frequency change in a carrier wave.
- Data transferred from the reader to the at least one tag can include operating conditions of a coupled tool or external environment.
- Step (b) can include associating the reader with a conduit downhole for the passage of fluids therethrough.
- This step can include arranging the reader such that downhole fluids and the at least one tag can pass through a throughbore of the downhole conduit and reader.
- the conduit can comprise any downhole tubing string such as a drillstring or production string.
- the method may further comprise the step of matching the inner diameter of the reader and the conduit such that the inner diameter of the conduit is not restricted by the reader.
- Step (c) can also include running the at least one tag downhole.
- the method can include circulating fluid through the conduit and the reader.
- the method of step (c) can include adding the at least one tag to the circulating fluid.
- This step can include circulating the tag through the reader
- Step (c) can include charging the at least one tag as it is moved past the reader. Charging the tag can thereby cause the tag to emit the radio frequency identification signal.
- the method may comprise the additional step of recovering the tag after use.
- the method for downhole communication can include communicating data from the tag to the downhole reader for the purpose of actuating a downhole tool.
- the method can include associating a downhole tool with the reader to enable remote actuation of the downhole tool.
- the downhole tool can be selected from the group consisting of: sliding sleeves; packers; flapper valves; and other tools located in a tubing string.
- the method can include locating at least two readers downhole with associated tools, the readers being individually identifiable or selectable.
- the tags may be selectively programmed with unique data, for example, specific discrete frequencies, such that data from each tag is capable of being received by an individual reader responsive to the specific discrete frequencies. Therefore, there may be provided several readers coupled to respective downhole tools and a plurality of tags selectively encoded with data which may be read only by a particular reader with a unique identity, for operation of a specific tool.
- the reader can be an antenna.
- the antenna can be less then 10 metres in axial length, for example, between 5-10 metres.
- the antenna can be less then 5 metres in axial length, for example between 2 to 5 metres.
- the antenna can be around 0.5 metre in axial length, for example, between 0.1 to 1 metres and most preferably, the antenna is around 14 inches (0.356 metres) in axial length.
- the antenna can comprise a generally cylindrical housing and a coiled conductor within a portion of the housing, wherein the coiled conductor is separated from the portion of housing by an insulating material, and wherein the portion of the housing has a greater internal diameter than an external diameter of the coiled conductor.
- the insulating material can be any suitable non-conducting material such as air, glass fibre, rubber or ceramic.
- the antenna can further comprise a liner, wherein the coiled conductor is wrapped around the liner, in a helical co-axial manner.
- the housing and liner form a seal around the coiled conductor and insulating material.
- the housing can be made of steel.
- the liner can be nonmagnetic and non-conductive to restrict eddy currents.
- the antenna is provided for use downhole, all components comprising the antenna can be capable of withstanding the high temperatures and pressures experienced downhole.
- apparatus for actuating a downhole tool comprising:
- At least one tag programmed to emit a radio frequency identification signal in the form of a frequency change of a carrier wave
- a downhole tool coupled to a downhole reader responsive to a signal emitted by the at least one tag for actuation of the downhole tool.
- a downhole tag programmed to emit a radio frequency identification signal in the form of a frequency change in a carrier wave.
- the tag is preferably adapted to withstand the temperatures and pressures experienced downhole.
- the tag can be oil-filled to improve its collapse rating.
- Fig.1 (a) is a schematic diagram showing the optimum orientation of a tag as it travels in a fluid flow through a downhole conduit in the direction of the fluid flow indicated by the arrow;
- Fig.1 (b) shows a sub optimum orientation of the tag as it travels in the fluid flow of a downhole conduit in the direction of the flow indicated by the arrow;
- Fig.1 (c) is an undesirable orientation of a tag as it travels in the fluid being pumped through a downhole conduit in the direction of flow indicated by the arrow;
- Fig.2 is a schematic diagram of an RFID tag reader, the reader being for inclusion in a conduit such as a drill string intended for use downhole, with Fig.2 also showing preferred dimensions of the reader.
- a reader in the form of an antenna is shown in Fig .2 as antenna 10 and is shaped to be incorporated as part of a conduit, such as a drill string, (not shown) in for instance a downhole tool (not shown) having suitable connections (such as OCTG screw threads) for inclusion in the string.
- the antenna 10 is in the region of 14 inches in length.
- the antenna 10 comprises an inner liner (not shown) formed from a non-magnetic and non-conductive material such as fibreglass, moulded rubber or the like.
- the liner has a bore extending longitudinally therethrough. The bore is preferably no narrower than an inner bore of the conduit.
- the antenna 10 comprises a coiled conductor 12 (typically formed of, for example, a length of copper wire 12) is concentrically wound around the liner in a helical coaxial manner.
- Insulating material (not shown) formed from fibreglass, rubber or the like separates the coiled conductor from the surrounding housing in the radial direction.
- the antenna 10 is formed such that the insulating material and coiled conductor are sealed from the outer environment and the inner throughbore.
- the two frequencies specified (below) in the present embodiment are optimised for an antenna having a length of around 14 inches (0.356 metres) and a diameter of around 2 inches (0.05 metres) to 4 inches (0.10 metres).
- a longer antenna provides improved functional results as a tag will take more time to pass through a longer antenna and hence increase the available time for the antenna to charge and read data from the tag.
- a longer antenna is significantly more expensive to manufacture, install and run downhole.
- an antenna 10 of around 14 inches (0.356 metres) in length balances the cost against the basic functional requirements.
- the antenna 10 is coupled to an electronics pack (not shown) and a battery (not shown) to power the assembly prior to being included in the conduit at the surface.
- the electronics pack is programmed to respond to a specific carrier wave signal having two discrete frequencies.
- An RFID tag 20 is shown in Fig. 1 (a) to 1 (c) and comprises a miniature electronic circuit having a transceiver chip arranged to receive and store information and a small antenna 22 connected to an electronic circuit 24 within a hermetically sealed casing 26 surrounding the internal
- the RFID tag 20 is capable of withstanding high
- Glass or ceramic tags 20 are preferable and should be able to withstand 20 000 psi (138 MPa). Oil filled tags 20 are also well suited to use downhole, as they have a good collapse rating.
- the RFID tag 20 is programmed to emit a unique signal.
- the signal emitted by the tag is formed by a carrier wave having two discrete Radio Frequencies (RF); 124 kHz and 134Hz.
- RF Radio Frequencies
- the signal transmits binary information.
- One of the frequencies e.g. 124 kHz represents a "0" and the other frequency e.g. 134 kHz represents a "1 ".
- the two frequencies of the described embodiment are optimally selected. The higher the frequency, the better the signal will carry over a longer range, but the greater the attenuation of the signal, so the harder it may be to detect. Additionally a higher frequency signal requires more energy
- the optimum frequencies disclosed herein of 124 kHz and 134 kHz balance the need to prolong battery life of the antenna 10 and attain the required data transmission rate and signal strength so that the signal is adequately communicated from the tag 20 to the antenna 10 as the tag 20 passes therethrough.
- the antenna 10 is made up as part of a drill string and run downhole into the wellbore of a hydrocarbon well along with the drill string.
- the programmed RFID tag 20 is then weighted, if required, and dropped or flushed into the well with well fluid. After travelling through the inner bore of the conduit, the RFID tag 20 reaches the antenna 10.
- the antenna 10 charges and reads data from the tag 20.
- the data is in binary form with both frequencies representing binary information. Data transmitted by the tag 20 is received by the antenna 10 and can then be processed by the electronics pack.
- the reader can be coupled to a tool (not shown), such as a circulation sub, flapper valve, packer or the like.
- the electronics pack processes data received by the antenna 10 as described above and recognises a flag in the data which corresponds to an actuation instruction data code stored in the electronics pack. The electronics pack can then instruct actuation of the downhole tool.
- tags 20 programmed with the same operating instructions can be added to the well, so that at least one of the tags 20 will reach the antenna 10 enabling operating instructions to be transmitted.
- the other RFID tags 20 encoded with similar data can be ignored by the antenna 10.
- the tags 20 may also carry data transmitted from the antenna 10, enabling them to be re-coded during passage through the antenna 10.
- the antenna 10 can emit an RF signal in the form of a carrier wave having two discrete frequencies in response to the RF signal it receives. This can re-code the tag 20 with information sent from the antenna 10.
- the tag 20 can then be recovered from the cuttings recovered from the annulus from the borehole.
- useful data such as temperature, pressure, flow rate and any other operating conditions can be transferred to the tag 20.
- FSK frequency shift keying
- At least two discrete frequencies are required to produce the signal by the carrier wave.
- the amplitude of the signal is irrelevant since the reader is programmed to identify the difference in frequencies rather than the amplitude or strength of each signal.
- the minimum spacing between the two frequencies is particularly important when the downhole conditions are variable, which can affect the signal strength and intensity.
- FSK is generally thought not to function as efficiently as ASK for data transmission adjacent large metal bodies.
- the inventors have found that a tag passing downhole through a conduit is typically moving in the region of highest flow rate i.e. towards the centre of the conduit. Therefore the tag 20 emitting the RF signal is not immediately adjacent the metal conduit, although the reader/antenna 10 is positioned immediately adjacent the metal. Furthermore, at the time the tag 20 delivers the RF signal, it is passing through the reader/antenna 10 that has a non-conductive inner liner, rather than the metal conduit itself.
- Fig.1 (a) the optimum orientation of a tag 20 as it is passing through an antenna 10 in the direction of flow indicated by arrow 11 is as shown in Fig.1 (a); that is with the antenna 22 within tag 20 being coaxial with the conductor coil 12 of the reader/antenna 10 such that the longitudinal axis of the antenna 22 is parallel with the longitudinal axis of the conductor coil 12 of the reader 10.
- the tag 20 will still be able to be read by the conductor coil 12 of the reader/antenna 10 if it is at a slight angle to the longitudinal axis of the directional flow 11 and therefore the
- the tag 20 cannot be read by the conductor coil 12 of the reader/antenna 10 if the tag 20 is perpendicular to the direction of flow 11. In other words, the tag 20 cannot be read if its antenna 22 is orientated with its longitudinal axis at 90 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the conductor coil 12 of the reader/antenna 10. Consequently, embodiments of methods in
- Fig.1 will typically include providing a number of tags 20 into the flow of fluid pumped downhole which means that it is statistically unlikely that all of the pumps tags 20 will take on the undesired orientation as shown in Fig.1 (c) and that at least a number of the tags 20 will either have the most preferred orientation shown in Fig.1 (a) or may have the acceptable orientation (albeit a sub optimum orientation) as shown in Fig.1 (b).
- inserting a plurality of tags 20 into the flow of fluid pumped downhole means that it is statistically likely that at least one tag 20 will have its antenna 22 orientated with its longitudinal axis at less than 90 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the conductor coil 12 of the reader/antenna 10 such that it can be read by the reader/antenna 10
- Fig.2 shows that the conductor coil 12 of a preferred reader antenna 10 is 14 inches in length and has a diameter of between 2 and 4 inches. The inventors have discovered that for such an reader/antenna 10, the maximum pumping velocity of the fluid that passes through the
- reader/antenna 10 should be in the region of 10 metres per second because that is the maximum velocity that the tag 20 can pass through the conductor coil 12 having the dimensions hereinbefore described for there to be sufficient time for the tag 20 to be read and, if necessary, written to.
- the inventors have also found the surprising result that RF signals using ASK as a data transmission method can be more difficult than FSK to detect downhole. If a tag 20 emitting signals using ASK is incorrectly located relative to the reader/antenna 10 (for example, the tag 20 is too close to the reader, too far from the reader or the tag 20 is in an incorrect orientation), the reader is not always able to consistently and reliably detect a signal. Since the temperature, pressure, flow rate, direction of flow, etc. in an oil and gas well is varied and can be unpredictable, RF signals based on ASK can be more difficult to detect downhole. As a result, ASK can be useful downhole, but surprisingly has a narrower range of downhole operating parameters than FSK.
- ASK signals relying on a change in amplitude compared with FSK that relies on a change in frequency of the carrier wave. This can lead to a poorer signal strength and quality when data is transmitted using ASK.
