  • the present disclosure relates generally to data transmission systems, and more particularly, to electromagnetic (EM) data transmission systems for use within wellbores.
  • EM electromagnetic
  • Wells are drilled to facilitate the extraction of hydrocarbons from a formation.
  • various drilling parameters can be monitored to adjust and optimize drilling operations.
  • sensors may be utilized to monitor parameters for steering a drill bit, measurements for the optimization of drilling efficiency, formation electrical resistivity, downhole pressure, direction and inclination of the drill bit, torque on bit, weight on bit, etc.
  • sensor readings or data from the downhole sensors can be transmitted to the surface for monitoring, analysis, decision-making, and otherwise controlling drilling operations.
  • Drilling systems can transmit data from downhole sensors to a surface location for the above-mentioned purposes.
  • a drilling system can transmit data from a downhole location by introducing an electrical gap between the two ends of the drill string and emitting an electric field from the gap to transmit data to the surface.
  • one drawback of conventional EM data transmission systems is that introducing an electrical gap into the drill string mechanically weakens the drill string, as the electrical gap is often created by sandwiching insulating materials between two separate metallic sections of one or more drill collars.
  • the insulating material may be subject to torsional, compressional, and cyclical bending stresses under load.
  • low modulus insulating materials can plastically deform over time, while high modulus insulating materials may fracture, with both failures causing mechanical and/or electrical failure of the gap.
  • EM data transmission systems may transmit at a low broadcast signal strength when operated on batteries, causing susceptibility to electrical noise that interferes with the detection and demodulation of the surface signal. Compounded with mechanical and/or electrical failure of the gap, as described above, battery operation can result in a severe reduction in transmitted signal strength. Therefore, what is needed is an apparatus, system or method that addresses one or more of the foregoing issues, among one or more other issues.

  • the insulating spider is configured to transfer a torsional load between the plurality of outer blades and the plurality of inner blades. Further, the upper end portion is electrically insulated from the lower end portion.
  • each insulator may be manufactured so that the strongest axis of the material can be optimally and advantageously oriented to be coincident with the forces applied to each insulator, thereby making the gap sub more mechanically robust than a conventional insulated gap collar while permitting reliable and fast transmission of sensor data to the surface. It should be understood that the terms upper and lower as used in this description are used for convenience and may be swapped without loss of performance or functionality.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un raccord d'espacement utilisant une pluralité d'éléments isolants conjointement avec au moins deux éléments métalliques pour réaliser une configuration mécaniquement et électriquement robuste. Le raccord d'espacement comprend une partie extrémité supérieure, une partie extrémité inférieure, un manchon externe, un manchon interne, une rondelle externe isolante, une rondelle interne isolante et un croisillon isolant. La rondelle externe isolante est conçue pour transférer une première charge axiale entre la partie extrémité supérieure et le manchon externe. La rondelle interne isolante est conçue pour transférer une seconde charge axiale entre le manchon interne et la partie extrémité inférieure. Le croisillon isolant est conçu pour transférer une charge de torsion entre le manchon externe et le manchon interne. Du fait que les rondelles isolantes sont utilisées pour transférer des charges axiales et le croisillon isolant est utilisé pour transférer des charges de torsion, chaque isolant peut être fabriqué de telle sorte que l'axe le plus fort du matériau peut être orienté de manière optimale et avantageusement aligné avec les forces appliquées à chaque isolant, ce qui rend le raccord d'espacement plus robuste mécaniquement qu'un collier d'espacement isolé classique tout en permettant une transmission fiable et rapide de données de capteur à la surface.
