    Abstract: A downhole tool is provided for measuring accelerations at a location within a subterranean borehole. The tool is rotatable around the longitudinal direction of the borehole. The tool includes four accelerometers, each accelerometer measuring acceleration in a respective direction and being arranged such that at least a component of its measured acceleration is normal to the longitudinal direction. The accelerometers are further arranged such that no more than any two of the four accelerometers have their respective components parallel to the same direction. The tool also includes a first device which measures the rotational speed of the tool. The tool also includes a processor unit which relates the acceleration measured by each accelerometer to the true acceleration at that accelerometer by a respective scaling term and a respective offset, and combines the measured accelerations and the tool rotational speed to re-calibrate the scaling terms as the tool rotates.

    Abstract: A method for determining hydraulic compliance of a wellbore during a managed pressure drilling procedure. Measurements are made of the pressure of a drilling fluid being circulated in the wellbore during the procedure at the top of a drilling annulus, the flow rate qin of the drilling fluid into the wellbore and the flow rate qout of the fluid out of the wellbore. These three measurements are used to determine the difference of the flow rates and a discrete time derivative (Pt−Pt-Δt)/Δt of the pressure, where t is time and Δt is a time interval. The differences in flow rates and the time derivatives are then processed by applying a low pass filter to determine the hydraulic compliance of the wellbore.

    Abstract: Pipes, drill strings including pipes, and methods for use on a drilling rig. The method includes obtaining pipe data for individual drill pipes of a drill string, obtaining a well trajectory for a well, obtaining one or more drilling measurements to be used when drilling the well, planning a first drill string based on the pipe data, the well trajectory, and the one or more drilling measurements, predicting an aging of the individual drill pipes in the first drill string while drilling the well using the first drill string, determining that a risk of failure of one or more individual pipes in the first drill string is unacceptable based on the aging of the individual pipes; and planning a second drill string in response to determining that the risk of failure is unacceptable in the first drill string.
