Abstract: A flow control system for drilling a well comprises a conduit defining a channel configured to accommodate a drill pipe and a flow of a returning drilling fluid, and an acoustic sensor array configured to detect a flow rate of the returning drilling fluid. The flow control system further comprises a flow control device configured to control the flow rate of the returning drilling fluid and to be actuated in response to an event detected by the sensor array, the flow control device being proximate to the sensor array.

Abstract: Se proporciona un método para medir una velocidad de flujo de un fluido que fluye en un espacio entre un conducto exterior y un elemento interior en el conducto exterior; las ondas ultrasónicas se transmiten y reciben a través del espacio entre múltiples pares de transductores ultrasónicos a lo largo de múltiples rutas de propagación, respectivamente; una velocidad de línea media del fluido se calcula con base en datos de cada par de transductores ultrasónicos; como tal, se obtienen múltiples velocidades de línea media a lo largo del espacio; la velocidad de flujo del fluido se calcula con base en las múltiples velocidades de línea media.

Abstract: A riser joint system, comprising: a riser joint assembly defining a channel and comprising a first ultrasound module for transmitting a first ultrasound signal to obtain first ultrasound data and a second ultrasound module for transmitting a second ultrasound signal to obtain second ultrasound data, wherein a beam direction of the first ultrasound signal is perpendicular to an axial line of the channel and a beam direction of the second ultrasound signal is oblique to the axial line of the channel; and a processing module for receiving the first ultrasound data and the second ultrasound data and obtaining first information and second information. A well drilling system and a method for the well drilling system are also described.

Abstract: APPARATUSES (100,200,300) USEABLE IN AN OFFSHORE DRILLING INSTALLATION CLOSE TO THE SEABED (110) FOR CONTROLLING WELL INFLUX WITHIN A WELLBORE ARE PROVIDED. AN APPARATUS (100,200,300) INCLUDES A CENTRALIZER AND FLOW CONSTRICTOR ASSEMBLY (128,228), A SENSOR (154) AND A CONTROLLER. THE CENTRALIZER AND FLOW CONSTRICTOR ASSEMBLY (128,228) ARE CONFIGURED TO CENTRALIZE A DRILL STRING (112) WITHIN A DRILL RISER (106) AND REGULATE A RETURN MUD FLOW (118). THE SENSOR (154) IS LOCATED CLOSE TO THE CENTRALIZER AND FLOW CONSTRICTOR ASSEMBLY (128,228) AND CONFIGURED TO ACQUIRE VALUES OF AT LEAST ONE PARAMETER RELATED TO THE RETURN MUD FLOW (118). THE CONTROLLER IS COUPLED TO THE CENTRALIZER AND FLOW CONSTRICTOR ASSEMBLY (128,228) AND THE SENSOR (154). THE CONTROLLER IS CONFIGURED TO CONTROL THE CENTRALIZER AND FLOW CONSTRICTOR ASSEMBLY (128,228) TO ACHIEVE A VALUE OF A CONTROL PARAMETER CLOSE TO A PREDETERMINED VALUE, BASED ON THE VALUES ACQUIRED BY THE SENSOR (154).

Abstract: SEABED WELL INFLUX CONTROL SYSTEM Apparatuses useable in an offshore drilling installation close to the seabed for controlling well influx within a wellbore are provided. An apparatus includes a centralizer and flow constrictor assembly, a sensor and a controller. The centralizer and flow constrictor assembly are configured to centralize a drill string within a drill riser and regulate a return mud flow. The sensor is located close to the centralizer and flow constrictor assembly and configured to acquire values of at least one parameter related to the return mud flow. The controller is coupled to the centralizer and flow constrictor assembly and the sensor. The controller is configured to control the centralizer and flow constrictor assembly to achieve a value of a control parameter close to a predetermined value, based on the values acquired by the sensor. 152 148 158 __130__146_ 140 154 120-N130 118 0 -l06X 1n12 14 130 146 140
