Abstract

Cette invention se rapporte à une technique (80, 100) utilisable dans un puits souterrain et consistant à déployer un premier capteur (38) à un emplacement distant, pour mesurer la répartition d'une caractéristique le long d'un segment (50) à cet emplacement. Cette technique (80, 100) consiste à déployer un second capteur (34) dans le trou de forage, pour mesurer ladite caractéristique en des points distincts du segment (50). Ce second capteur (34) est séparé du premier capteur (38).
