Systems and methods for operating a downhole battery

1. A method comprising:

receiving a timer value via a battery controller of a battery system;

enabling the battery system to provide power to a release device in a wellbore upon the battery controller receiving the timer value;

receiving an updated timer value via the battery controller, wherein the updated timer value changes the timer value, and the battery system continues to provide power to the release device at least until the updated timer value expires;

receiving a threshold temperature value via the battery controller;

receiving temperature data from one or more sensors via the battery controller; and

enabling the battery system to provide power to the release device in the wellbore via the battery controller upon the temperature data exceeding the threshold temperature value;

disabling the battery system via the battery controller upon the temperature falling below a lower temperature threshold value and exceeding a higher temperature threshold value;

wherein the battery system further comprises a battery configured to operate at temperatures closer to a downhole environment temperature of the wellbore than a temperature at surface.

2. The method of claim 1 , comprising operating, via the battery controller, the release device upon the timer value expiring or the updated timer value expiring.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein operating the release device comprises operating a motor of the release device to cause the release device to release a downhole tool in the wellbore.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the battery system is the sole source of power for operating the release device.

5. The method of claim 1 , comprising disabling the battery system via the battery if the temperature data is below the threshold temperature value.

6. The method of claim 1 , comprising enabling the battery system to provide power to the release device in the wellbore via the battery controller upon receiving the timer value or upon the temperature data exceeding the threshold temperature value.

7. The method of claim 1 , comprising enabling the battery system to provide power to the release device in the wellbore via the battery controller upon receiving the timer value and upon the temperature data exceeding the threshold temperature value.

8. A method comprising:

receiving a threshold temperature value via a battery controller of a battery system;

receiving temperature data from one or more sensors via the battery controller;

enabling the battery system to provide power to a release device in a wellbore upon the temperature data exceeding the threshold temperature value; and

disabling the battery system via the battery controller upon the temperature falling below a lower temperature threshold value and exceeding a higher temperature threshold value;

wherein the battery system further comprises a battery configured to operate at temperatures closer to a downhole environment temperature of the wellbore than a temperature at surface.

9. The method of claim 8 , comprising disabling, via the battery controller, the battery system if the temperature data is below the threshold temperature value.

10. The method of claim 8 comprising:

receiving a timer value via the battery controller;

enabling the battery system to provide power to the release device in the wellbore upon the battery controller receiving the timer value; and

receiving an updated timer value via the battery controller, wherein the updated timer value changes the timer value, and the battery system continues to provide power to the release device at least until the updated timer value expires.

11. The method of claim 10 , comprising operating, via the battery controller, the release device upon the timer value expiring or the updated timer value expiring.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein operating the release device comprises operating a motor of the release device to cause the release device to release a downhole tool in the wellbore.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the battery system is the sole source of power for operating the release device.

14. The method of claim 10 , comprising enabling, via the battery controller, the battery system to provide power to the release device in the wellbore upon receiving the timer value or upon the temperature data exceeding the threshold temperature value.

15. The method of claim 10 , comprising enabling, via the battery controller, the battery system to provide power to the release device in the wellbore upon receiving the timer value and upon the temperature data exceeding the threshold temperature value.

16. A system comprising:

a battery system comprising:

a battery controller configured to:

receive a timer value;

enable the battery system to provide power to a release device in a wellbore upon receiving the timer value; and

receive an updated timer value, wherein the updated timer value changes the timer value, and the battery system continues to provide power to the release device at least until the updated timer value expires; and

a battery configured to operate at temperatures closer to a downhole environment temperature of the wellbore than a temperature at surface;

wherein the controller is configured to:

receive a threshold temperature value;

receive temperature data from one or more sensors;

enable the battery system to provide power to the release device in the wellbore upon the temperature data exceeding the threshold temperature value; and

disable the battery system via the battery controller upon the temperature falling below a lower temperature threshold value and exceeding a higher temperature threshold value.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the battery controller is configured to operate a motor of the release device to cause the release device to release a downhole tool in the wellbore upon the timer value expiring or the updated timer value expiring.

18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the battery system is the sole source of power for operating the release device.
