terms:sonde

A detachable probe or downhole tool. A downhole instrument connected to a well-logging cable. Used in making measurements of parameters related to the borehole or its environment. A general term used for any subsurface logging tool that carries electrodes, detectors, etc. into the borehole. The cartridge, which consists of the electronics, might or might not be an integral part of the sonde. The term “sonde” has been modernized through use by some users to include the entire downhole, detachable tool.
