Abstract
Anordning og fremgangsmåte for å opprette elektrisk kommunikasjon mellom et instrument understykke anbrakt under en slammotor og en elektronikksonde anbrakt over slammotoren i et borestrengtransportert borehullloggesystem. Elektrisk kommunikasjon opprettes via i det minste en leder anbrakt innenfor slammotoren og koble instrumentsubstykket til en link anbrakt mellom slammotoren og elektronikksonden. Linken kan utføres som en strømkoblingslink, en magnetisk koblingslink, en elektromagnetisk telemetrilink og en direkte elektrisk kontaktlink. Toveis dataoverføring opprettes i en alle linkutførelser. Kraftforsyning er også opprettet i alle med unntak av den elektromagnetiske telemetrilinken.
