The device (50) is located outside of the piping structure (30) and comprises two terminals (71, 72). A first of the terminals (71) extending from the device (50) is electrically connected to the piping structure (30) on one side (81) of the first induction choke (91). A second of the terminals (72) extending from the device (50) is electrically connected to the piping structure (30) on another side (82) of the first induction choke (91), between the first and second induction chokes (91, 92), such that the downhole device (50) is electrically connected across an outside of the first induction choke (91). The system can further comprise other induction chokes (93-95), other terminals (97-99) extending from the device (50), a current sensor (114), a surface power source (54), a power transformer (104), a communications transformer (106), a surface modem (56), a downhole modem (102), a direct current power supply (101), and/or a power amplifier (110, 112).

摘要： A current impedance device for routing a time-varying electrical current in a piping structure comprising an induction choke. The induction choke is generally concentric about a portion of the piping structure such that during operation a voltage potential forms between the piping structure and an electrical return when the time-varying electrical current is transmitted through and along the piping structure, and such that during operation part of the current can be routed through a device electrically connected to the piping structure due to the voltage potential formed. The induction choke may be unpowered and may comprise a ferromagnetic material. A system for defining an electrical circuit in a piping structure using at least one unpowered ferromagnetic induction choke, comprises an electrically conductive portion of the piping structure, a source of time-varying current, at least one induction choke, a device, and an electrical return. The system can have various configurations and embodiments to define a plurality of possible electrical circuits formed using at least one induction choke to route time-varying current. An electric power transformer can also be incorporated. The system is adapted to provide power and/or communications for the device via the piping structure. One possible application of the system is in a petroleum well where a downhole device can send or receive power and/or communication signals via a piping structure of the well.

摘要： A reservoir production control system includes a plurality of wells for producing a reservoir linked to a central computer over a downhole communication network and a surface communication network. Both the downhole and the surface communication networks are wireless communications paths for transmitting downhole data and surface data to the central computer. Both networks include a series of interconnected tubing or pipe that allows transmission of data over electrically isolated portions of the pipe and tubing. After integrating and analyzing all relevant data and comparing the data with a reservoir model, the central computer initiates changes in a plurality of downhole control devices associated with the wells, thereby optimizing the production of the reservoir.
