SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PLACING MARKERS IN A FORMATION

摘要

A marker placement device, such as a modified coring gun, is used to place one or more markers into the formation. The marker placement device uses explosive charges to fire one or more marker assemblies into a borehole wall. A marker assembly includes a driver assembly which is adapted to be fired from the placement device and a marker which is releasably secured to the driver with frangible shear members.
