Abstract
An integrated data recorder may be positioned within a slot in a tool. The integrated data recorder includes a sensor package that includes one or more drilling dynamics sensors, a processor in data communication with the one or more drilling dynamics sensors, a memory module in data communication with the one or more drilling dynamics sensors, a wireless communications module in data communication with the processor, and an electrical energy source in electrical communication with the memory module, the one or more drilling dynamics sensors, and the processor.
Claims12
A method comprising:
- providing a tool, the tool including a steering tool of a bottomhole assembly
- providing an integrated data recorder, the integrated data recorder positioned within one or more components of a drilling rig, the integrated data recorder including:
- a sensor package, the sensor package comprising one or more drilling dynamics sensors;
- a memory module, the memory module in data communication with the sensor package;
- a processor, the processor in data communication with the one or more drilling dynamics sensors;
