  • Method and apparatus enhanced acoustic mud pulse telemetry
    Patent number: 7123161
    Abstract: A method and system for telemetry through a drilling fluid during drilling is disclosed. A reflector (110) is positioned downstream from the drilling mud pumps (80) and causes reflected pressure waves having the same pressure polarity as incident pressure waves traveling upwards. At least one pressure sensor (92) is positioned below the reflector (110) to sense pressure in the drilling fluid. The reflector can be a fixed orifice plate or an adjustable aperture.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 9, 2001
    Date of Patent: October 17, 2006
    Assignee: Schlumberger Technology Corporation
