Latest Patents
Elmer is credited with 1 patent: “Formation Testing Instrument Having Extensible Housing.” The invention describes a well-logging instrument with a housing connected to a conveyance and movable within a wellbore. Inside the housing, a formation-testing system works with an axial extension mechanism that can extend and retract. This mechanism allows the testing system to remain axially fixed while the housing moves, enabling formation tests and sample collection.
Career Highlights
Elmer’s documented patent contribution focuses on improving how formation-testing instruments operate during well logging. The extensible housing design addresses the challenge of keeping testing equipment positioned at a selected location in the wellbore while the instrument continues to move.
Collaborations
The patent information identifies Andrew L. Kurkjian and William Brian Underhill as Elmer’s coworkers. Their association reflects collaborative work connected with Schlumberger Technology Corporation and well-logging technology.
Conclusion
John B. Elmer’s patent describes an extensible well-logging instrument that helps maintain a stable testing position as the housing moves through a wellbore.
