System and method of monitoring displacement of a member during a downhole completion operation

Abstract

A method of monitoring axial or radial displacement of a member during a downhole completion operation includes, sensing axial or radial displacement of the member during the downhole completion operation with the at least one transducer, and communicating the sensing of the axial or the radial displacement to surface via the wired pipe.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method of monitoring axial or radial displacement of a member during a downhole completion operation, comprising:
 sensing axial or radial displacement of the member during the downhole completion operation with the at least one transducer; and   communicating the sensing of the axial or the radial displacement to surface via the wired pipe.   
     
     
         2 . The method of monitoring axial or radial displacement of a member during a downhole completion operation of  claim 5 , wherein the member is a portion of a setting tool. 
     
     
         3 . The method of monitoring axial or radial displacement of a member during a downhole completion operation of  claim 5 , wherein the member is one of a slip and a packing element. 
     
     
         4 . The method of monitoring axial or radial displacement of a member during a downhole completion operation of  claim 5 , wherein the member is one of a plug and a tubular. 
     
     
         5 . A downhole well completion displacement monitoring system, comprising:
 at least one transducer, positionable downhole and configured to sense axial or radial displacement of a member during a completion operation;   a wired pipe in operable communication with the at least one transducer; and   a monitoring device in operable communication with the at least one transducer via the wired pipe.   
     
     
         6 . The downhole well completion displacement monitoring system of claim  14 , wherein the at least one transducer is configured to sense axial or radial displacement of at least one of a tubular, a packing element and a slip.
