Drilling Monitoring Sub (DMS)

CNPCUSA DMS monitors down-hole drilling parameters for improved efficiency and drilling performance. Measurements are simultaneously recorded and transmitted to surface in real time with MWD Telemetry for optimized drilling and improved ROP. DMS allows you to know at-bit dynamics allowing mitigation of shock and vibration: the primary causes of downhole tool failure.

Key Features

  • Real-time BHA diagnostics
  • Real-time and recorded mode measurements
  • Compact design, scalable architecture
  • Real time clock
  • Sour Service

    The DMS utilizes three high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloys: Inconel 718, P550, and Beryllium Copper. Inconel 718 is a nickel-chromium alloy known for its resistance to a wide range of media. Nickel enhances its resistance to both inorganic and organic compounds across a broad pH range, while chromium provides protection against oxidizing and sulfur-containing environments. Additionally, molybdenum contributes to resistance against pitting corrosion. P550 is a manganese-chromium steel alloy with a high nitrogen content. The elevated nitrogen improves resistance to pitting, enhances protection against stress corrosion cracking, and supports the corrosion-resistant properties of chromium. Beryllium Copper is valued for its excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking and its ability to maintain mechanical strength in hydrogen sulfide (H₂S)* environments.

    * The standard elastomer offers partial resistance to H₂S; however, for environments with H₂S concentrations exceeding 20 ppm, a specialized elastomer is available to ensure enhanced protection.

    Sensors

    CNPC USA employs pressure transducers and drilling dynamics sensors integrated within a specialized collar. Measurement signals are captured, recorded, and processed using a proprietary methodology, offering operational flexibility to deliver both low-resolution real-time data and high-resolution post-run data

    Uses

  • Actual Weight on Bit (WOB) can be utilized to maximize Rate of Penetration (ROP).
  • A combination of WOB, Torque on Bit (TOB), Bending on Bit (BOB), vibration data, and RPM can be used to identify and mitigate drilling dysfunctions such as whirl, stick-slip, bit bounce, and excessive vibrations.
  • Differential pressure aids in assessing mud motor operating conditions.
  • Accurate WOB measurements can enhance sliding efficiency during motor sliding operations.
  • BOB data can reveal localized dogleg severity that may not be detected in standard survey data.
  • Benefits

  • Reduced Operational Risks
  • Maximized drill efficiency and performance
  • Real-time detection of down-hole drilling dynamics problems
