the intelliserv network includes measurement nodes along the full length of the drill string that allow operators to acquire data along the wellbore. the measurement nodes measure and transmit temperature and pressure data acquired along the drill string, which can improve well site efficiency and reduce risks associated with hole cleaning, such as pack offs. the transmission of information is not affected by the depth, formation resistivity, drilling fluid properties, or required flow of the well. surface operating parameters can control items detected by the sensors, such as shock and vibration.
