| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to an imaging sensor, particularly for use in oil-filled passages such as wells or pipelines, or for passages containing other similar viscous fluids. There is provided a downhole imaging system which operates in a wavelength region outside the visible band, preferably in the infrared region, to permit penetration of the surrounding fluid medium, e.g., oil. Positioning the optical part of the imaging sensor in a chamber whose walls are transparent to the radiation reduces the path length of the radiation in the oil. The chamber is filled with a material highly transmissive of the radiation.
