The paper reviews the research on testing of the telemetry system block in the conditions of Perm region wells. There are axial, radial and torsional vibrations of the drill string that permanently occur during the drilling and lead to a sharp decrease in the accuracy of measurements of accelerometers. Telemetry systems used together with rotary steerable systems work in more extreme conditions. The major part of drill string rotation creates significant centrifugal forces affecting the readings of accelerometers. The navigational block of the telemetry system consists of a strapdown inertial navigation system and geostationary system. Navigational system is built on the basis of three orthogonally located fiber optic gyroscopes and quartz accelerometers. Gyroscopes serve to measure the azimuth angle and sufficiently replace the magnetometers. Accelerometers are used to measure the zenith angle. The geostationary system includes the base with sensors, electric motor, two shock absorbers mounted on it. The geostationary system is tested on a stand where various rotational speeds are set. The effectiveness of geostationary system is proved by tests where gyroscopes and accelerometers do not increase the error of readings and do not lose initial reference point at rotation of 200 rpm. A strapdown inertial navigation system is tested for the influence of high temperatures and vibrations. Temperature tests in a thermal chamber did not show an increase in the error of sensors at temperatures up to 90°C. Effectiveness of shock absorbers and working capacity of the system under the influence with a frequency of up to 200 Hz and acceleration up to 10g is confirmed by tests on the shaker stand.
