Abstract

A monitoring system includes a first transducer component configured to couple to a running tool that is configured to place an insert into a housing and a second transducer component configured to couple to the housing. One of the first transducer component or the second transducer component is configured to emit acoustic waves, and the other one of the first transducer component or the second transducer component is configured to output sensor signals indicative of a received portion of the acoustic waves. The monitoring system also includes one or more processors configured to determine that the insert is in a landed position in the housing based on the sensor signals.
