EXPANDED MUD PULSE TELEMETRY

The present disclosure includes systems and methods for expanded mud pulse telemetry. An example method includes measuring pressure proximate at least one of first and second pressure control modules (15) along a drilling apparatus and telemetering the measured pressure to a surface controller (80)....

Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure includes systems and methods for expanded mud pulse telemetry. An example method includes measuring pressure proximate at least one of first and second pressure control modules (15) along a drilling apparatus and telemetering the measured pressure to a surface controller (80). A command is transmitted from the surface controller (80) to at least one of the first and second pressure control modules (15) or one of first and second controllable flow restrictors (8) via mud pulse telemetry while mud is not being pumped through a main standpipe.
