Abstract: A technique facilitates control over packers and/or other well tools actuated downhole. The technique utilizes a valve connectable into a well string. The valve is shiftable between a plurality of modes so as to control flow of fluid in a downhole environment. Additionally, an actuator system is connectable into the well string and operatively coupled with the valve. The actuator system is electronically controlled to cause the valve to shift to a desired mode of the plurality of modes. This approach enables electronic control over the actuation of specific downhole tools, e.g. packers, and/or other well related operations.

Abstract: A technique facilitates control over a downhole well operation. The technique utilizes an electronic control system for controlling actuation of a downhole application-specific attachment. According to an embodiment, the system comprises a universal actuator module which may be selectively combined with a variety of application-specific attachments, e.g. well tools. The universal actuator module is electrically powered via, for example, electricity supplied to drive an electric motor which, in turn, may be used to drive a hydraulic pump or other type of mechanical device. Additionally, a given application-specific attachment can be readily interchanged with other application-specific attachments (e.g. well tools) for performing a desired downhole operation or operations.

Abstract: A technique facilitates control over a downhole well operation. The technique utilizes an electronic control system for controlling actuation of a valve downhole. The valve, in turn, is operated to enable selective control over fluid flows governing the actuation of a downhole tool and/or other downhole operations. In some embodiments, the electronic control system may work in cooperation with a downhole hydraulic system to provide a downhole electro-hydraulically actuated valve system. A monitoring system provides feedback regarding the valve position and/or status of the downhole operation.

Abstract: A system for use in carrying out downhole coiled tubing applications with two-way telemetry over a single fiber optic thread. The system includes uphole and downhole assemblies each having unique couplers. Specifically, the couplers may be configured to secure the single fiber optic thread at one end thereof while having dedicated fiber optic channels at another side thereof for interfacing a fiber optic transmitter and receiver. Thus, fiber optic data may travel from a surface assembly over the thread for detection at the downhole assembly simultaneous with fiber optic data travelling from the downhole assembly to the surface assembly over the same thread.

Abstract: A downhole tool conveyable within a wellbore and able to optically communicate with surface equipment. The downhole tool includes a processing system operable to process electronic downlink signals and generate electronic uplink signals. The downhole tool further includes an integrated module having an optical interface able to receive multiplexed optical downlink signals from the surface equipment and to transmit multiplexed optical uplink signals to the surface equipment, a multiplexer/demultiplexer able to demultiplex the multiplexed optical downlink signals into carrier optical downlink signals, and to multiplex carrier optical uplink signals into the multiplexed optical uplink signals, a receiver able to convert the carrier optical downlink signals into the electronic downlink signals, and a transmitter able to convert the electronic uplink signals into the carrier optical uplink signals.

A first optical conductor is carried with the coiled tubing. The downhole tool is connected to the coiled tubing for conveyance within the wellbore via the coiled tubing. The control system is disposed at the wellsite surface. The rotary joint is disposed in association with the reel and transmits optical communications between the control system and at least one of the downhole tool and the coiled tubing disposed within the wellbore, via at least the first optical conductor and a second optical conductor extending at least partially between the rotary joint and the control system.

Abstract: A system for managing multiple transmissions over a single fiber optic thread at an oilfield. The system includes surface equipment and a downhole device coupled to the equipment by way of the fiber optic thread. The types of transmissions may be telemetric or even optical power. Additionally, the transmissions may be one-way or two-way in nature between the equipment and the downhole device. Additionally, unique platform layouts may be employed for sake of managing different transmission types in different ways, for example, during coiled tubing operations.
