Abstract:
A sensor transportation apparatus to convey a sensor assembly through a wellbore. The apparatus comprising has an engagement structure to connect the sensor transportation apparatus to the sensor assembly, and one or more wheels arranged to rotate about an axis of rotation substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the sensor assembly when the transportation apparatus is connected to the sensor assembly. An orientation structure defining a form having a transverse outline which has a rotational center, wherein the rotational center is offset from a centroidal axis of the elongate sensor assembly.
