Definitions
- the cables for prospecting in particular for underwater petroleum prospecting, must resist ambient pressure, transmit energy for the control of devices placed on the bottom, and convey to the surface information coming from measuring devices. They must have excellent tensile strength and burst strength, as well as high temperatures, and remain insensitive to the action of hydrocarbons, which cause the swelling of many elastomers constituting the sheaths of conventional cables.
- Document FR-A-2 339 237 has already proposed a coaxial submarine cable comprising from its periphery towards its axis a steel wire armor, an outer sheath, an outer conductor, an electrical insulator, and an element central carrier comprising a tubular central conductor surrounding steel tension elements.
- Document US-A-3773109 has also proposed an underwater cable for prospecting comprising from its periphery towards its axis an armor formed by two layers of steel wire, a layer of semiconductor tape, insulated conductors coated in a semiconductor layer, an insulator, a braid forming an outer conductor, an insulator and conductors wound helically around a carrier monofilament, forming a central conductor and intended to transmit signals.
- Such cables do not make it possible to have a conductor forming a stable potential reference, protected against the electromagnetic fields induced by the currents flowing in the other conductors.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a coaxial cable for prospecting, making it possible to have both a conductor forming a reference of very stable potential, and conductors transmitting information from measuring devices.
- the cable according to the invention is characterized in that its axial rod forms an insulator for a conductor capable of constituting a potential reference at each end of the cable, and in that the bare conductors and the external conductor form a coaxial structure capable of be connected to power supplies of measuring devices in high frequency bands.
- the figure shows the cable in section. It comprises axially a rod 1 in a thermostable polymer, such as polypropylene, polyethylene fluoride and propylene, in particular that sold by the company of Pont de Nemours under the commercial designation FEP, or in poly-methylpentene, in particular that sold under the trade designation TPX by Imperial Chemical Industries, depending on the temperature of use, the FEP polymer suitable for the highest temperatures.
- a thermostable polymer such as polypropylene, polyethylene fluoride and propylene, in particular that sold by the company of Pont de Nemours under the commercial designation FEP, or in poly-methylpentene, in particular that sold under the trade designation TPX by Imperial Chemical Industries, depending on the temperature of use, the FEP polymer suitable for the highest temperatures.
- FEP polypropylene
- polyethylene fluoride polyethylene fluoride
- TPX poly-methylpentene
- the rod 1 constitutes the insulator of a conductor 2, used to establish a potential reference at each end of the cable, in particular for ground resistivity measurements.
- the rod 1 is surrounded by several bare tinned or silver copper wires 3, not insulated, forming the inner conductor of the coaxial cable. These wires are themselves embedded in the insulator 4 resistant to high temperatures, in the same material as the rod 1.
- the outer conductor 5 formed by a strip of tinned or silvered bare copper of which the two edges overlap and are welded or glued to each other.
- the outer conductor 5 is surrounded by a sheath 6 of thermoplastic material resistant to high temperature, for example polymethylpentene, polyethylene propylene fluoride or polyimide. This is protected by a weave of steel wires with high mechanical strength, formed by two layers 7, 8 of wires wound helically at large pitch and in the opposite direction.
- thermoplastic material resistant to high temperature for example polymethylpentene, polyethylene propylene fluoride or polyimide.
- This armor ensures the tensile strength and the burst strength of the cable, resists corrosion by sea water and prevents swelling of the sheath under the effect of hydrocarbons.
- This cable allows it to transmit high frequency bands, and therefore to carry a greater amount of information than known cables, with equal diameter.
- an external sheath can be added around the armor, which protects the armor from corrosion.
- the cable of the invention can be particularly applied to prospecting for petroleum or natural gas, but is generally suitable for all research at the bottom of boreholes made on land, at the bottom of the sea and at the bottom of lakes.
