ABSTRACT:
An electromagnetic telemetry system for changing the operational state of a downhole device (84) disclose. The system comprises an electromagnetic transmitter (76) disposed in a first wellbore (30) that transmits a command signal. An electromagnetic repeater (68) disposed in a second wellbore (38) receives the command signal and retransmits the command signal to an electromagnetic receiver (96) disposed in a third wellbore (46) that is remote from the first wellbore (30). The electromagnetic receiver (96) is operably connected to the downhole device (84) such that the command signal received from the electromagnetic repeater (68) is used to prompt the downhole device (84) to change operational states.
