INTERPRETATION OF REAL TIME CASING IMAGE (RTCI) DATA INTO 3D TUBULAR DEFORMATION IMAGE

Title:

INTERPRETATION OF REAL TIME CASING IMAGE (RTCI) DATA INTO 3D TUBULAR DEFORMATION IMAGE

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/074666

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

A system, method and computer-readable medium for providing an image of a deformation of a member is disclosed. Strain measurements are obtained at a plurality of sensors located at the member. Components of the obtained strain measurements corresponding to a bending deformation are obtained. From the obtained components, components are obtained that corresponding to at least one cross-sectional deformation of the member and a bending parameter is determined from the components corresponding to the bending deformation. A cross-sectional deformation parameter is determined from the components corresponding to the at least one of the cross-sectional deformations. The image of the deformation of the member is provided using the determined bending parameter and the determined cross-sectional deformation parameter.
