ABSTRACT:
A logging system employs an armored multiconductor coaxial cable, including an inner conductor, a shield and conductive outer armor and in which the shield, encompassing the inner conductor, comprises a plurality of conductors which includes groups of conductors, each group being separated from another group by an insulator. A distribution circuit has capacitors connected between each shield conductor to improve transmission of a high frequency signal by the inner conductor and the shield conductors while low frequency signals and direct current voltages may be transmitted by the shield conductors and the conductive armor of the cable.
A logging tool, including pulse neutron source, gamma ray detector and collar detector, is passed through a borehole traversing an earth formation. Data pulses corresponding in number and amplitude to detected gamma radiation are provided by the gamma ray detector to the inner conductor and to the plurality of conductors of the cable. The signal from the collar detector is applied to a first group of conductors of the plurality of conductors and the armor of the cable. Surface electronics adjacent to the borehole process data pulses received from the cable. A high voltage direct current power is provided to logging tool by way of the inner conductor and the armor of the cable. While second and third direct current voltages are applied to second and third groups of conductors, respectively, of the plurality of conductors and to the armor.
