摘要： A new technique for interpreting pressure data measured during a formation test. The new technique uses an exact spherical flow model that considers the effects of flow line storage and that can be solved in closed, analytical form. This technique generates a type-curve that matches the entire measured pressure plot and that can accurately predict ultimate formation pressure during formation testing from a pressure plot that has not achieved steady state values near the formation pressure.

摘要： An improved formation testing method increases the accuracy of in-situ formation pressure measurements by characterizing the mudcake properties. Specifically, after a formation tester is lowered to a desired depth within a wellbore, a pad is extended to gently abut and seal against the mudcake without disturbing the mudcake. When pressed against the mudcake, the pad experiences momentarily higher pressures, which are measured by a probe housed by the pad. These pressures may be enhanced by briefly rejecting fluids through the probe, so as to avoid disturbing the mudcake. The probe continues to measure pressure, which eventually decreases relative to hydrostatic pressure in the wellbore, due to the flow of high-pressure wellbore fluids through the mudcake. Since the rate of fluid flow outward into the formation is governed by the permeability of the mudcake, measuring the rate of pressure decline during this initial period provides useful data to more accurately estimate properties such as formation compressibility. Additionally, indicia of the mudcake properties themselves may be generated. After the initial mudcake tests, the formation tester may be used to perform drawdown and/or buildup tests, by a process of withdrawing or injection fluids into the formation through the mudcake.
摘要翻译：改进的地层测试方法通过表征泥浆性质来提高原位地层压力测量的准确度。具体地说，在将地层测试仪降低到井眼内所需的深度之后，将垫延伸以轻轻地抵靠并密封在泥饼上，而不会干扰泥饼。当压在泥饼上时，垫经历瞬间更高的压力，这是通过由垫容纳的探针来测量的。这些压力可以通过简单地通过探针排出流体来增强，以避免干扰泥饼。由于高压井眼流体通过泥饼的流动，探头继续测量压力，该压力最终相对于井筒中的静水压力而降低。由于流入地层的流体流速由泥饼的渗透率决定，因此在初始阶段测量压力下降速率提供了更为准确的估计地层压缩性能的数据。此外，可能产生泥饼性质本身的标记。在初始泥饼测试之后，地层测试仪可以用于通过将泥浆从地层中抽出或注入流体的过程进行抽水和/或堆积测试。

摘要： The present invention provides an apparatus and method for determining geologic formation properties. A pressure wave is generated by a reciprocating piston transmitted to the formation by a probe. The pressure is sensed by a high accuracy quartz gauge in the probe. This pressure is compared to the pressure sensed at a spaced probe or to the flow rate of the piston to calculate permeability or other formation properties.

摘要： The acoustic detector in a mud pulse telemetry system includes a one dimensional waveguide disposed between a pressure transducer and a conduit carrying drilling fluid to a drill string. The waveguide, which may include a flexible hydraulic hose, increases the amplitude of the acoustic mud pulse signal received at the transducer located at the termination end by a factor of two or more. In addition, the waveguide may be substantially filled with a fluid having a viscosity higher than the viscosity of the drilling fluid so as to provide a means to dampen high frequency noise, and thereby improve the signal-to-noise ratio at the pressure transducer.

摘要： A self-propelled turbo siren modulator assembly is disclosed for use in an MWD system. The turbo siren includes a fixed turbine deflector located upstream from a rotor, which in turn is located upstream from a fixed stator. Drilling mud flowing through the turbine deflector causes the rotor to rotate independent of any external drive device. The rotor and stator preferably have a similar configuration, which includes at least one lobe and at least one port so that the rotor alternatively blocks or permits mud flow through the port(s) of the stator to create a cyclical acoustic wave signal, with a frequency that depends upon the number of lobes on the rotor and the velocity of the drilling mud. Encoded measurement data is modulated on the carrier frequency wave through the use of amplitude modulation, frequency modulation or phase shift modulation, or a combination thereof to maximize data rates. In addition, a plurality of modulator assemblies may be provided, each of which includes a different number of lobes so as to operate at different, distinct frequencies to create a plurality of transmission channels in the drilling mud medium. These plurality of modulator assemblies therefore provide a plurality of separate carrier frequency signals on which data may be modulated to increase the rate at which data is transmitted to the surface of the well.

摘要： An acoustic detector in a mud pulse telemetry system includes a bypass loop in parallel with a section of the main mud line that supplies drilling mud to a drill string. The detector includes a pair of pressure sensing ports in the bypass line, and one or more pressure transducers for detecting the pressure at different locations in the bypass loop so that the differential pressure can be measured. The bypass loop has a small internal passageway relative to the main mud supply line and may include a constriction so as to create two regions in the passageway that differ in cross sectional areas. Forming the pressure sensing ports in the regions of differing cross sectional areas allows the pressure transducers to more precisely detect the mud pulse signals. Because of its relatively small cross sectional area, only a small fraction of the drilling mud flows through the bypass loop. The bypass loop may thus be constructed of hydraulic hose and a relatively small rigid body having a central through bore.
