Abstract
A downhole sensing system includes a casing connector configured to fluidly couple segments of a downhole conduit through which a fluid flows. The downhole sensing system includes a sensing device disposed in the casing connector and configured to measure one or more parameters. The downhole sensing system also includes a wireless communication device disposed in the casing connector and configured to wirelessly communicate one or more parameters.
Claims25
A downhole sensing system comprising:
- a casing connector configured to fluidly couple segments of a downhole conduit through which a fluid flows;
- a sensing device disposed in the casing connector and configured to measure one or more parameters;
- and
- a wireless communication device disposed in the casing connector and configured to wirelessly communicate one or more parameters.
1 more element
A downhole sensing system comprising:
- a casing connector configured to fluidly couple segments of a downhole conduit through which fluid flows;
- a sensing device disposed in the casing connector and configured to measure one or more parameters of the fluid flowing through the downhole conduit, wherein the sensing device configured to be powered by one or more of one or more batteries or an energy harvesting device disposed in the casing connector;
- and
- a wireless communication device disposed in the casing connector to wirelessly communicate one or more measured parameters.
1 more element
A method comprising:
