| Zusammenfassung: | A sensing apparatus is provided for use downhole, comprising a housing and sensing means with the housing containing a plurality of separable elements to which data acquired by the sensing means is transferred. The separable elements are releasable from the housing to convey the acquired data to surface. The separable elements have a spherical outer casing of around 1 to 10 cm diameter which surrounds a memory chip. The casing has a sealable aperture so that electrical connection to the chip can be established within the housing. |
