In France March 10, 1933 Cores, that is to say samples of rock withdrawn from bore holes for examination and identification of the formations traversed, are generally cut off from the rock at the bottom of the hole.
The object of the present invention is to provide an arrangement by means of which one can obtain at any depth and at any time before lowering of the casing samples of the rock forming the wall of a bore hole. By this arrangement it is possible to sample formations which have already been more or less accurately identified, either by examination of the mud cuttings brought up by the boring or by electrical coring processes described in American Patents Nos. 1,819,923 of Aug. 18, 1931, and 1,913,293 of June 6, 1933. The taking of cores can thus be confined to geological strata which are already considered to be of interest. With the usual procedure, however, it is frequently impossible to forecast whether the core about to be cut oil? at the bottom of a hole will be of any practical value, and this fact leads either to the very expensive solution of the continuous coring or to the risk of missing the cores from the interesting beds.
There are already a certain number of mechanical devices by means of which lateral cores can be taken at a previously fixed depth, such as, for example, those described in the Patents Nos. 1,635,340, 1,683,642, 1,815,661 and 1,955,166. The present invention differs therefrom on the one hand by the fact that the movements which the coring apparatus has to carry out after being lowered into the hole are controlled from the surface by means of an electric cable with one or more insulated conductors connecting the device lowered into the hole to a source of current installed at the surface; and, on the other hand, it vdiifers also by the fact that the coring apparatus may be provided with a special suction device for taking samples of fluid (especially oil) contained in porous beds.
This electric cable may advantageously be used for the raising and lowering of the coring apparatus. For this purpose the cable is wound on a winch at the surface and has suflicient mechanical strength to support the weight of the coring arrangement suspended at its lower end.
Great precision is often required to determine the depth to which the apparatus must be lowered. This occurs for example when the core has to be taken from a thin bed at a great depth. In such a case it is very advantageous to combine with the coring apparatus an electric prospecting device in accordance with the two American patents first mentioned above (Nos. 1,819,923 and 1,913,293). In this way it is easy to lower the coring apparatus exactly to the depth of a given bed which is recognized from the surface by the electrical prospecting device.
The accompanying drawings show in a nonlimiting manner a constructional form of coring apparatus in accordance with the invention. Herein Figure 1 is a general view in vertical section illustrating diagrammatically means that may be used to control the coring arrangement.
Figure 2 isa diagrammatic sectional-elevation of (the coring arrangement lowered in a bore hole an t Figure 3 is a similar view of the same in t'h e act of taking a core.
Figure 4 is a section on a larger scale of the coring member itself showing a construction for taking samples of a fluid, oil for example.
In Fig. 1 the coring body I, which is lowered into the borehole, is attached to an electric cable 2. This cable may have only one insulated con ductor for transmitting the electric power generated by a battery 3, but it is useful to have at 35 least two supplementary insulated conductors in order to control the depths by means of an electrical diagram, as explained below.
This cable passes over a pulley 4, and is wound upon a winch 5. I 30 The current is conveyed from battery 3 to the coringapparatus I by the insulated conductor 9 of the cable, through a collector 6 disposed on the winch, a switch I, a controlled resistance 8, and
through the ground.
In order to control the depths by means of an electric diagram, two of the insulated conductors Ill and II of the cable 2 are connected to two electrodes l2 and I3.
By means of the collector 6 of the winch, these 40 two electrodes are connected to a measuring instrument 14.
When sending an electric current to the coring body I, the metallic body acts as a current electrode. Consequently this arrangement makes it 45 possible to record the electrical resistivity log of the bore hole as explained in Patent 1,819,923. As mentioned below, the intensity of the current is so small as not to start the operation of the coring member. Using only one of the elec-- 50 trodes I 2 or l3, it is also possible to apply the method of Patent 1,913,293.
It is thus possible to control the exact position of the coring body in respect to a given bed by comparing the electrical measurements with a 55' diagram previously taken in the same drill-hole and showing the depth of said bed.
In the form of coring apparatus shown in Figures 2 and 3 electric control is used to set the coring tool into motion but the mechanical power necessary'for this motion is obtained from the explosion oi powder. In these figures, It is one of the insulated conductors of the electric cable, which is attached at I! to the top of the frame of the apparatus and serves to lower the latter to the desired depth. This conductor it passes by an insulating joint it through the wall of a cylinder I1 and terminates in a fuse is, connected by its other terminal to the metallic body of the apparatus. Round the fuse is and consequently within the cylinder l'l there is a charge of explosive II. The cylinder I1 is attached to the frame of the apparatus by a hinge pin 20 and is provided with a piston 2|, itself pivoted at 22 to a lever 23 capable of swinging in relation to the frame about the pivot pin 24. This lever has at its lower end 'a sampling tube (hollow punch) 25. 3
An electrical battery at the surface, with one pole grounded, is used to send the ignition current through the fuse l8, the circuit being closed through the metallic frame and the mud which usually fills the bore hole. If the bore hole does not contain conducting mud, a two-conductor 'cable is used, connected at the lower end to the two terminals of the fuse, and at the surface to the two poles of the battery.
The fuse is arranged to act only with certain intensity of current. fires the explosive; the piston 2i, pushed downwardly by the pressure so produced, causes the lever 22 to pivot about 22 and drive the sampling tube 25 into the stratum to be sampled as shown in Fig. 3. When the cooling of the gases result- -ing from the explosion and leakage round the piston 2| have caused a reduction of pressure in the cylinder II the moving members return to.
the position of Fig. 2 under the effect of a strong leaf spring 26. During this movement the fragments of the bed A which have become wedged into the sampling tube by the driving of the latter into the earth remain held there and are found there when the apparatus is returned to the surface.
It is, of course, easy to arrange on the same structure any number of similar sets of apparatus by means of which samples of a series of strata may be taken without raising the apparatus 'each time to the surface.
When taking samples of oil bearing strata it is frequently of advantage to obtain and enclose in a fluid-tight container a certain volume of the oil impregnating the sand. This container should be completely closed. In fact the ofl contains gases in solution under a very high pressure which tend-to escape from the core of oil bearing sand when it is raised to the surface and is no longer subjected to the high pressure of the mud always filling the bore hole in such cases. There is thus a risk of the oil disappearing more or less completely from the core and also of changing its chemical composition owing to the distillation of the more volatile hydrocarbons, which pass off first as the pressure is lowered during the raising in the bore hole.
Faithful sampling may be carried out without such disturbances by providing the core tube with an arrangement having a closed container to receive a little of-the oil. Figure 4 shows diagrammatically on a larger scale such a modi- The heating of the' fuse fiedtubeabouttostriketh'ewallofthebore hole for taking a sample ofoll bearing sand therefrom.

When the sampling tube 21 enters the oil bearing sand C the latter fills the front part 22, presses the stem of the valve 2! and raises it. On account of the surrounding pressure the oilao is forced into the empty rear part of the sfiipling tube. The closure of the valve 2! when the sampling tube is withdrawn ensures the retention of this sample of fluid. which afterthe raising of the sampling tube to the surface can 25'.
be withdrawn by unscrewing the plug at 2|. It is, of course, easy at the surface to take any precautions which may be necessary to retain the more volatile constituents.
