    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method for transmitting measurements while drilling are adapted for use with a drill string equipped with a mud motor. The drill string may comprise a plurality of interconnected drill pipe joints or a plurality of interconnected casing joints. The apparatus comprises a measurement-while-drilling tool adapted for placement in the drill string beneath the mud motor. The measurement-while-drilling tool has a system for transmitting telemetry signals, such as mud-pulse telemetry signals, upwardly through the mud motor and the drill string. In particular embodiments, the measurement-while-drilling tool has a system for transmitting mud-pulse telemetry signals upwardly through the mud motor and the drill string at frequencies below approximately 1 Hz, although other frequencies may be employed to advantage. The apparatus may further comprise a rotary steerable system for placement in the drill string beneath the mud motor. The rotary steerable system may be a point-the-bit system or a push-the-bit system. In particular embodiments, the rotary steerable system and the measurement-while-drilling tool are integrated.

    摘要: A communication system for a casing while drilling system is provided. The casing while drilling system is adapted to advance a bottom hole assembly into a subsurface formation via a casing. The communication system comprises a high frequency modulator and a transducer. The modulator is positioned in the bottom hole assembly and adapted to generate a mud pulse by selectively restrict mud flow passing therethrough. The transducer is adapted to detect the mud pulse generated by the modulator.

    摘要: The present invention provides means to extend the flow rate range over which a downhole turbine 70 will return a power output sufficient to meet the minimum downhole power requirements. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to an arrangement of axial vanes 77 that are situated such that the rotation of the rotor 76 generates an increasing drag force, thereby extending the upper limit of the flow rate range. In another embodiment, the present invention relates to an arrangement of restriction assemblies 75 that can be used to maximize the fluid velocity relative to the fluid flow rate past the stator 74 to achieve the necessary speed and power to rotate rotor 76, thereby extending the lower limit of the flow rate range. In another embodiment, the axial vanes 77 and restriction assemblies 75 are used in combination to further extend both the upper and lower limits of the flow rate range of the downhole turbine 70.
