<p>An apparatus, method and system for communicating information between downhole equipment and surface equipment is disclosed. The electromagnetic signal repeater apparatus (34) comprises a housing (102) that is securably mountable to the exterior of a pipe string (30) disposed in a wellbore (32). The housing (102) includes first and second housing subassemblies (104, 106). The first housing subassembly (104) is electrically isolated from the second housing subassembly (106), and is electrically isolated from the pipe string (30). The second housing subassembly (106) is electrically coupled with the pipe string (30). An electronics package is disposed within the housing (102). The electronics package receives, processes and retransmits the information being communicated between the downhole equipment and the surface equipment. <IMAGE></p> |
