Up Hole Transmission Of Well Data Based On Bandwidth

摘要

Methods, computer-readable media, and systems for up hole transmission of well data based on bandwidth are described. A down hole type data transmission tool includes an input device to receive data from a well tool. The tool includes a processor to determine that sufficient bandwidth is unavailable to transmit all of the received data up hole to a data receiving device in real time, and, responsively, divide the data into a portion to be transmitted up hole in real time and a remainder to be transmitted later. The remainder can be buffered in a memory and transmitted at a later time, for example, when sufficient bandwidth is available.

主权项

1. A down hole type data transmission tool adapted to couple to a well tool, the down hole type data transmission tool comprising:
an input device to receive data from the well tool; a processor to:
determine that sufficient bandwidth is unavailable to transmit all of the received data up hole to a data receiving device as data is received from the well tool, andin response to determining that sufficient bandwidth is unavailable, divide the data into a portion of the received data to be transmitted as the portion is received from the well tool and a remainder of the received data to be transmitted at a later time based on a bandwidth available to transmit data up hole to the data receiving device; a memory to store the remainder of the received data; a transmitter to:
transmit the portion of the received data up hole to the data receiving device as data in the portion is received from the well tool, andtransmit the remainder of the received data at the later time.
