Zusammenfassung:Provided is a downhole rotary slip ring joint, a well system, and a method for accessing a wellbore. The downhole rotary slip ring joint, in one aspect, includes an outer mandrel, an inner mandrel operable to rotate relative to the outer mandrel, an outer mandrel communication connection coupled to the outer mandrel, and an inner mandrel communication connection coupled to the inner mandrel. The downhole rotary slip ring joint, according to this aspect, further includes a passageway extending through the outer mandrel and the inner mandrel, the passageway configured to provide continuous coupling between the outer mandrel communication connection and the inner mandrel communication connection regardless of a rotation of the inner mandrel relative to the outer mandrel, wherein the downhole rotary slip ring joint is operable to be coupled to a wellbore access tool.
