Redundant wired pipe-in-pipe telemetry system

A method, comprising:

• introducing an outer pipe into a borehole;
• positioning an inner pipe within the outer pipe, wherein the outer pipe axially supports the inner pipe using a collar of the inner pipe, the collar of the inner pipe comprising a connector coupled thereto;
• coupling a first conductive element to the inner pipe, wherein the first conductive element is disposed at least partially within an annulus between the inner pipe and the outer pipe;
• coupling a second conductive element to the outer pipe, wherein the second conductive element is disposed proximate to the outer pipe;
• coupling a wired path controller to each of the first conductive element and the second conductive element;
• coupling the second conductive element to the wired path controller using the connector;
• and
• transmitting telemetry data through at least one of the first and second conductive element.

A system, comprising:

• an outer pipe, wherein the outer pipe comprises a shoulder disposed on an inner surface;
• an inner pipe disposed within the outer pipe, wherein the inner pipe comprises a projection that is axially supported by the shoulder;
• a first conductive element coupled to the inner pipe and disposed at least partially within an annulus between the inner pipe and the outer pipe;
• a second conductive element disposed within the outer pipe;
• a wired path controller disposed in the projection of the inner pipe, wherein the wired path controller is coupled to each of the first conductive element and the second conductive element;
• and
• a connector disposed in the projection of the inner pipe, wherein the connector couples the second conductive element to the wired path controller.
