Publication number: 20170342823Abstract: A method includes deploying an object inside a casing installed in a well, and transmitting a pulse conveyed by fluid in the casing. The method also includes receiving a reflection in response to the pulse, and analyzing a travel time for the reflection determine a position of the object in the well. A related system includes a casing installed in a well, and a pulse transmitter in fluid communication with the casing and configured to transmit pulses via fluid in the casing. The system also includes a receiver in fluid communication with the casing and configured to receive pulse reflections, and a processor in communication with the receiver. The processor analyzes a travel time for at least one pulse reflection to determine a position of an object in the well.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 31, 2014Publication date: November 30, 2017Applicant: HALLIBURTON ENERGY SERVICES, INC.Inventors: Vimal V.
