Abstract
The disclosure is directed to a well system environment communication system comprising of an acoustic communicator capable of communicating encoded data with a first wireless transceiver through a fluid medium and the first wireless transceiver capable of communicating encoded data with a second transceiver through a non-fluid medium. In one example, an acoustic communicator is communicatively coupled with a downhole tool allowing the downhole tool to communicate indirectly with a well system controller. In another aspect of the disclosure, a method is described wherein an acoustic communicator located in a wellbore can encode data from a downhole tool and communicate the data through a fluid medium to a first wireless transceiver and the first wireless transceiver can communicate with a second transceiver through a non-fluid medium.
