Abstract
A system and method for transferring data across a component in a well, according to which a first module receives the data and transmits the data, via electromagnetic waves, through the component, and a second module receives the transmitted data from the first module.
Claims15
A system for processing signals in a well, comprising:
- a packer disposed in the well;
- a data source disposed in the well for acquiring data relating to fluid leakage across the packer;
- a wireless electronic transmitter disposed in the well and connected to the data source for receiving signals from the data source and transmitting corresponding signals through the packer;
- and
- a receiver disposed in the well for receiving the corresponding signals from the transmitter after transmission through the packer.
