Abstract
A method of subterranean drilling comprising monitoring at least one drilling criteria at the surface; communicating a marker signal to a bottom hole assembly of a drill string upon meeting a condition of the at least one drilling criteria; and repeating the marker signal at least two consecutive times the condition is met. In an embodiment, the marker signal can be repeated every time the condition is met. A system for subterranean drilling comprising a drill rig adapted to monitor at least one drilling criteria at the surface; a communication element adapted to communicate a marker signal to a bottom hole assembly of a drill string upon meeting a condition of the at least one drilling criteria, wherein the communication element is adapted to communicate the marker signal to the bottom hole assembly at least two consecutive times the condition is met.
