Abstract

L'invention concerne un adaptateur de couplage pouvant être inséré dans au moins un segment d'un train de tiges lorsque ce dernier est avancé depuis une installation de forage. L'adaptateur de couplage comprend un dispositif destiné à recevoir un signal de données généré par un outil souterrain et à coupler électromagnétiquement le signal de données avec au moins une section du train de tiges s'étendant de l'adaptateur à l'installation de forage, de manière qu'au moins une partie des éléments du tube de forage coopèrent comme conducteur électrique afin de transporter le signal de données jusqu'à l'installation de forage. Dans un autre aspect, un transformateur de courant est monté de manière flexible afin d'être isolé des chocs et vibrations mécaniques produites par une opération souterraine au moyen du train de tiges. Un aspect encore différent porte sur un répéteur pour train de tiges.
