Abstract:
A coupling mechanism is disclosed for coupling a wireless communication device to a locating profile in a wellbore. The coupling mechanism comprises a coupling body arranged for connection to the wireless communication device, and an anchoring unit. The coupling body includes a conical portion with a tapered outer surface. The anchoring unit has a tapered inner surface arranged to oppose the tapered outer surface of the coupling body. The coupling body and the anchoring unit are configured for relative movement to cause the anchoring unit to expand radially to grip the locating profile.
