ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a well logging cable including first conductor elements, each of the first elements consisting of a steel wire surrounded by copper strands and covered in an electrically insulating material, and at least one second conductor element including at least one optical fiber enclosed in a metal tube, copper strands surrounding the tube and the strands covered by the electrically insulating material. The first elements and the at least one second element are arranged in a central bundle. The second conductor element is positioned within the bundle so as to be helically wound around a central axis of the bundle. The bundle is surrounded by armor wires helically wound externally to the bundle.
