LOW PROFILE MAGNETIC ORIENTING PROTECTORS

摘要

A system for providing information about a region of interest in a borehole, comprises a tubular passing through the region of interest, an optical fiber deployed on the outside of the tubular in the region of interest and optically connected to a light source and optical signal receiving means, at least one metal strip deployed on the outside of the tubular adjacent to the optical fiber, wherein the strip has at least one longitudinal face that is flat or concave so as to conform to the outside of the tubular, and means for holding the optical fiber and the metal strip in a fixed azimuthal location with respect to the tubular.
