  • Patent number: 11047189
    Abstract: A launching system for an autonomous unit (RAU) carrying a logging tool for oil and gas well logging robotic, said system comprising a main body provided with first and second control valves and a draining valve, sensors and a end cap electrically connected to a control room for transmission of the data collected by the logging tool carried by the RAU, said End Cap collecting data and charging the electrical battery of the robotic autonomous unit (RAU) carrying said logging tool to be launched by said main body and performing a schedule of logging tasks in the well; and a connection for a wellhead. The method for installation and uninstallation of the autonomous unit in the said system as well as a rescue system for the said robotic autonomous unit in case of hindered motion of the RAU for any reason are also described.
