Conduit Tube Assembly and Manufacturing Method for Subterranean Use

摘要

A support system for fiber optic cable adjacent a bottom hole assembly is fabricated from flat sheet that has a capillary tube attached with the assembly spirally wound into a tube shape and the spiral seal being welded. Male and female end connections that comprise timed threads are then oriented at each tube end with respect to where the capillary tube terminates so that there will be a reduced or no misalignment of fiber optic cable ends when timed threads are fully made up. A predetermined tightening torque range also allows some fine tuning of the desired alignment to reduce any offset of fiber optic cable ends. The capillary can run inside or outside the assembled tube shape.
