SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING A WELL
First Claim
1. A well site data communication system comprising:
- a receiver coupled to a first network node that receives information using a first communication protocol;
a transmitter coupled to the first network that sends information from the first communication terminal to a second network node located in a network at a well site using a second communication protocol; and
a processor coupled to the first communication terminal configured as a protocol translator to change the received information from the first communication protocol to the second communication protocol for communicating with a network node
