Drilling Quasi-Stationary Data Extraction And Processing

A method for assessing and/or removing one or more motion effects from logging while drilling (LWD) measurement data may include disposing a borehole logging tool into a borehole, wherein the borehole logging tool is disposed on a bottom hole assembly (BHA), taking one or more measurements at one or more depth in the borehole with the borehole logging tool to form a measurement data set, and identifying one or more pipe breaks and one or more stations in the measurement data set. The method extracts measurement data at one or more pipe breaks and one or more stations to form a non-motion measurement data set, providing answer products from the non-motion measurement data set. The method may further include removing the one or more pipe breaks and one or more stations from the measurement data set to form a corrected measurement data set and providing one or more answer products.

Shale shaker system having sensors, and method of use
11492901 · 2022-11-08 ·

A shale shaker system. The system includes a fluid transport pipe configured to receive a stream of drill cuttings and fluid returns from a wellbore during a drilling operation; an analysis module configured to receive at least a portion of the stream of drill cuttings and fluid returns at an inlet; a cuttings chute configured to receive at least a portion of the stream of drill cuttings and fluid returns from an outlet of the container, and deliver them to a screen box; and one or more screens for filtering drill cuttings from the fluid returns. The analysis module comprises logging sensors configured to operate while drill cuttings are moving through the system. The logging sensors communicate with a processor to determine characteristics of the drill cuttings in real time. A method for analyzing drill cuttings at a well site is also provided.

The device includes: a tapping mechanism coupled to a top metal cover of the borewell, configured to generate a first sound wave; a sound detector coupled to the top metal cover of the borewell, configured to detect a second sound wave associated with reflection of the first sound wave with a water level and generate a first data packet thereof; and a computing device configured to: enable, from received the first data packet, determination of water level at the borewell. The device also includes: a flow sensor coupled with an outlet pipe of the borewell, the flow sensor configured to generate a second data packet pertaining to flow of water in the outlet pipe. The computing device is configured to, upon receipt of the second data packet, enable determination of water consumption at the borewell.

CASING COLLAR LOCATOR FOR DRILL PIPE
20230102387 · 2023-03-30 · ·

A system for locating a casing collar includes a drill pipe sub-assembly with a drill pipe segment and detection apparatus. The detection apparatus includes a bypass port disposed in a wall of the drill pipe segment; an annular sleeve which directs fluid through the bypass port and into a drill pipe segment interior portion; an actuator which opens and closes the bypass port; and two magnetized coils which generate an electromagnetic field. The actuator closes the bypass port in response to a predetermined voltage generated by the magnetized coils when they displace past a casing collar. Also included are a weight loss detection device which detects a loss of weight in the drill pipe segment, and a depth determination device which determines a depth of the casing collar, based on detected loss of weight. Also disclosed and described are a related method and drill pipe sub-assembly.

ANCHOR POINT DEVICE FOR FORMATION TESTING RELATIVE MEASUREMENTS

A downhole probe can be utilized in a wellbore to accurately determine a relative depth between measurement locations. The downhole probe includes a measurement unit for taking downhole measurements and a detachable anchor that can grip a wellbore wall to maintain a fixed location. The measurement unit may be moved relative to anchor between the measurement locations to unspool a tether coupled between the anchor and the measurement unit. The length of the tether unspooled may provide a more accurate indication of the relative distance between the measurement locations than surface-based measurements. The detachable anchor may be retrieved for deployment at additional measurement locations or may be abandoned in the wellbore.
