摘要： An acoustic attenuator includes a housing having an inner side surface which defines an interior chamber and at least one dampening member both physically and acoustically coupled to the housing and projecting into the interior chamber. Acoustic energy propagating within the housing is deflected into the dampening members for acoustically dispersal within the interior chamber. In various aspects thereof, the dampening members may include one or a group of two or more generally cylindrical sleeves having one end both physically and acoustically coupled to the housing and a second end projecting into the interior chamber. Preferably, when a group of two or more cylindrical sleeves are employed, the sleeves are nested within one another. The dampening members may further include a second, oppositely disposed, group of two or more acoustic attenuators nested within one another and interdigitated with the first group of cylindrical sleeves.

摘要： A reliable downhole acoustic telemetry system with increased data rate is disclosed. In one embodiment, the telemetry system includes a receiver having an envelope-detection demodulator and a multipulse-block distance detector that compares a baseband envelope signal to stored waveforms and indicates for each symbol interval the multipulse block having the waveform closest to the baseband envelope signal. The receiver may also include a timing recovery module that models the baseband envelope signal for the detected multipulse blocks and determines a distance for early-sampling and late-sampling of the baseband envelope signal. The timing recovery module then provides a sampling clock that minimizes the average difference between the early- and late-sampling distances. The telemetry system may further include a transmitter having an encoder and a modulator. The encoder converts a data signal into a sequence of multipulse blocks having a settling interval between the blocks. The modulator modulates the multipulse block sequence with a carrier frequency to produce an amplitude modulated signal. The telemetry system may have the transmitter and receiver coupled to a tubing string by an acoustic signal generator and an acoustic transducer, respectively. The acoustic signal generator converts the amplitude modulated signal into acoustic waves that propagate along the tubing string to the acoustic transducer, which then converts the acoustic waves into a receive signal. The system and method disclosed may advantageously provide a robust, low-power telemetry system that communicates telemetry along a tubing string at a rate that is at least an order of magnitude greater than existing acoustic telemetry methods.

摘要： A communications system employing discrete multi-tone (“DMT”) modulated signals on a communications channel formed by inductively-coupled pipe. In one embodiment, the communications system includes a string of wired pipe joints that couple a transmitter to a receiver. Each pipe joint in the string possesses threaded ends configured for mechanically connecting with other pipe joints, a electrical or inductive coupler at each threaded end, and an insulated conductor that electrically connects the couplers. The transmitter and receiver communicate via DMT modulated signals transported by the wired pipe string. The system may further include multiple repeaters in the string. Each repeater may be configured to receive a DMT-modulated signal, to recover information from the DMT-modulated signal, and to retransmit the information in the form of a DMT-modulated signal.

摘要： A process and apparatus for treating a wellbore, comprising subjecting a substantially same portion of the wellbore to vibratory waves produced by a plurality of vibratory wave generators. The vibratory waves may have about the same frequency or a plurality of frequencies, and the frequencies may partially overlap, not overlap, or be modulated across a range. Additionally, the frequencies may be modulated in an oval, hoop, and flexural modes. The vibratory waves may be produced by firing the vibratory wave generators simultaneously or in sequence. Combinations of a vibrating pipe, piston pulser, or valve may be used as vibratory wave generators. In a preferred embodiment, the thickness and change of thickness of a mudcake on the interior surface of a wellbore are measured to evaluate the effectiveness of the wellbore treatment.
