Some drilling measurements such as downhole weight on bit, torque, vibration levels, axial, lateral and rotary accelerations have also been incorporated into the measurement group. The MWD instrument simultaneously records drilling directional information, drilling parameter information and formation logging information. There is a great need for a faster data link between the bit and drill operator. In this way, the drill operator can obtain information in a timely fashion. Situ Well Monitoring Equipment Geothermal plants normally operate from a matrix of wells.
Several wells are producers while another set of wells are the injectors.
The injectors return cooled fluid back in the reservoir. At present, many plant managers, monitor temperature and pressure at the surface with permanent monitoring equipment. Some managers pay to have a temperature, pressure and flow survey performed once a year inside each well. Plant owners would enjoy the ability to deploy monitoring systems within each well while producing power. Some of the important measurements would be temperature, pressure, HCL levels and flow.
