DOWNHOLE SENSOR SYSTEM
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for use in a well, comprising:
- a drillstring;
a plurality of sensors deployed along the drillstring to provide data from multiple locations along the drillstring during a drilling operation; and
a surface processor operatively coupled with the plurality of sensors and adapted to determine the position of the plurality of sensors based on the position of each sensor in the drillstring and a position of the drillstring in the well.

Abstract
A method includes sensing a parameter in a well using a sensor disposed on a drillstring, determining a position of the sensor in a wellbore based on a position of the sensor in the drillstring and a position of the drillstring in the wellbore.
