Method and system of transmitting acoustic signals from a wellbore

摘要

Transmitting acoustic signals from a wellbore. At least some of the illustrative embodiments are methods including transmitting an acoustic signal comprising downhole data, receiving the acoustic signal (the receiving by a receiver disposed within the internal diameter of a casing in the wellbore) converting the acoustic signal to a corresponding first electromagnetic signal, and inducing a second electromagnetic signal in a tubing responsive to the first electromagnetic signal.

主权项

1. A system comprising:
a repeater system coupled to a tubing in a wellbore, the repeater system comprising:
a first receiver that detects an acoustic signal;a transducer coupled to the first receiver that converts the acoustic signal to a first electromagnetic signal; andan antenna coupled to the transducer, the antenna induces a second electromagnetic signal in the tubing a second receiver disposed outside a casing of the wellbore, and the second receiver proximate to the tubing, the second receiver detects the second electromagnetic signal propagating in the tubing.
