196 METHOD OF INCORPORATING REMOTE COMMUNICATION WITH OILFIELD TUBULAR HANDLING APPARATUS US15257384 2016-09-06 US20160369573A1 2016-12-22 Sorin Gabriel TEODORESCU; Hallvard Svadberg HATLOY; Tarald GUDMESTAD; Lev RING
Signal communications at a drilling system generally includes communicating upwards or downwards from the rig floor. For example, signal communications upwards may comprise the control of a cementing head operation (e.g., actuating cementing head). Signal communications downwards may comprise the activation of tools and their confirmation (e.g., hole opening tools, liner hangers, and packers). Actuation may be performed via umbilicals, for example, via pressure spikes or the dropping of balls, darts, or radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags. However, issues may arise wherein, for example, a ball may not properly land to close a circulation valve. As another example, a cementing head could be over 100 feet above the rig floor, which may make it difficult for signal communications via an umbilical. Accordingly, what is needed are techniques and apparatus for activation of tools and their confirmation by a remote communication system.
