Abstract: Electrical cables and processes for making and using same. In some examples, the electrical cable can include one or more insulated electrical conductors and one or more metallic elements cabled together and a metallic layer disposed about the one or more insulated electrical conductors and the one or more metallic elements. The one or more metallic elements can partially fill a space located between the one or more insulated electrical conductors and the metallic layer. The one or more insulated electrical conductors can each include an electrically conductive core, a layer of electrically insulating material disposed about the electrically conductive core, and a layer of metallic strands disposed about the layer of electrically insulating material.

Abstract: A system includes a cable and at least one coupling device installed along the cable. The coupling element has one or more through cavities for receiving the cable, and configured to hold the cable when disposed in the cavity against a surface of the wellbore.

Abstract: A system includes a cable and a toolstring. The toolstring may couple to the cable to enable the toolstring to be placed in a wellbore. The toolstring includes a sensor that can collect measurements relating to the wellbore. An electromagnetic or anchoring device may selectively hold the toolstring or the cable against a surface of the wellbore.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices involving segmented radiation detectors are provided. For example, a segmented radiation detector may include a segmented scintillator and an optical-to-electrical converter. The segmented scintillator may have several segments that convert radiation to light, at least one of which may detect radiation arriving from an azimuthal angle around an axis of the segmented scintillator. The optical-to-electrical converter may be coupled to the segmented scintillator. The optical-to-electrical converter may receive the light from the segments of the segmented scintillator and output respective electrical signals corresponding to the amount of radiation detected by each segment.

Abstract: A wire includes a ferrous core. The ferrous core can be coated. The coatings can include nickel, molybdenum, zinc and Fe. A process of forming a wire can include placing a metal strip alongside a ferrous wire core, bending the strip around the core, and seam welding the strip to form a metal tube around the core. The process of forming a wire can include applying a metal layer to a ferrous metal rod to form a plated rod, placing a metal strip alongside the rod, bending the strip around the rod, and seam welding the strip to form a metal tube around the rod. The process of forming a wire can include coating a ferrous wire core with a layer of nickel, molybdenum or a nickel alloy that circumferentially surrounds the ferrous wire core.
