  • Dissolvable object with a cavity and a fluid entry point
    Publication number: 20220042393
    Abstract: A dissolvable untethered object for use inside a well fluid includes an internal cavity and a fluid entry point. The internal cavity contains a gas. The fluid entry point is closed and selectively openable so that the internal cavity can be filled with the well fluid flowing through the fluid entry point. A dissolving rate of the dissolvable untethered object is modified after contact of the well fluid inside the internal cavity with the dissolvable untethered object.

  • Data transmission of downhole recorded measurements by untethered object to a toolstring inside a well
    Patent number: 10968734
    Abstract: An untethered sensing object able to sense and record well fluid and wellbore parameters. The untethered sensing object is adapted to transmit recorded data towards a communication module of a toolstring, whereas the toolstring is conveyed from surface and reaches a proximity distance with the untethered sensing object inside the well fluid of a wellbore. The untethered sensing object includes at least one sensor, an acquisition module, a recording module and a transmitting module.
