The granted patent US11988065B2 introduces a wellhead identifier apparatus designed to enhance the identification of wellheads in operational settings. The apparatus consists of two main components: a first part that can be mounted to the wellhead or its vicinity, and a second part that attaches to wellhead operation equipment. When these two parts are in proximity, the apparatus generates an identifier signal that can be used by a user to distinguish a specific wellhead from multiple wellheads. The first part may include a sensor capable of detecting various signatures—such as magnetic, electronic, or optical—produced by the second part, which can also be equipped with a similar sensor. Additionally, the apparatus may feature a transmitter for relaying the identifier signal to a controller circuit, with options for both wired and wireless communication.

The patent further outlines a wellhead identifier system that incorporates a detectable signal generator mounted on wellhead operation equipment, alongside a sensor that detects this signal to produce object-based sensory information. This information aids in identifying the wellhead when it is connected to the operational component, such as a lubricator. The system's controller circuit processes the sensory information and can even issue commands to prevent the actuation of the wellhead control mechanism, ensuring operational safety. The detectable signals can vary, including pressure, optical, radio-frequency identification, and more, providing flexibility in the system's application. Overall, this patent presents a comprehensive solution for improving the identification and operational management of wellheads in the field.
