    摘要: System, apparatus, and method of telemetering downhole sensor information to the surface while operations are performed in an oil or gas well using coiled tubing. Data are transmitted on coiled tubing as digital signals encoded in acoustic signals. In one implementation, a stripper packer through which coiled tubing is moved into a well is operated between at least a first state and a second state; and an acoustic communication device responds to operation of the stripper packer such that when the stripper packer is in the first state, the acoustic communication device is decoupled from acoustic communication with the coiled tubing, but when the stripper packer is in the second state, the acoustic communication device is coupled for acoustic communication with the coiled tubing.

    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: One embodiment includes a method comprising receiving an acoustic signal that is propagated along a drill string. The method also includes correlating the acoustic signal to a first stored acoustic signal representing a first symbol, wherein the first stored acoustic signal is acquired from a propagation along the drill string in an approximately noise free environment.
