Abstract
A steering tool system may provide a bottom hole assembly (BHA) and a surface control/interface (SCI). The steering tool may provide an improved electronic schematic that provides a data line that is separate from the power line. The BHA may provide a full bore flow path. The connectors of a cablehead section may be designed to ease make up with proper contact to the connectors. The BHA may also be suitable for pumping a ball to a hydraulic disconnect. The design of the system allows conductors to pass through the hydraulic disconnect and orienter control section.
