Cloud computing system for real-time streaming of well logging data with self-aligning satellites

摘要

A cloud computing system for real-time streaming of drilling data from a drilling rig using satellites, wherein the system includes client devices for transmitting the drilling data. Radio boxes disposed around the drilling rig to form a local area network for connecting with the client devices. A router and switch connected to the local area network for receiving and transmitting the drilling data. A processor and data storage configured to receive the drilling data and form well logging data for transmission to the router and switch. A modem in communication with the router and switch used to send the drilling data to satellite dishes. A server positioned apart from the drilling rig used to receive drilling data and from well logs and executive dashboards. The server can stream the drilling data, well logs, and executive dashboard in real-time to remote client devices.
