Abstract
An orientable weight bar for a downhole tool includes a weight housing fixedly connectable to the downhole tool; an eccentric weight, and a weight lock. The eccentric weight is positioned in the weight housing. The eccentric weight has an offset mass along a radial portion thereof. The eccentric weight is rotationally and gravitationally movable within the weight housing to allow the offset mass to move to a weighted position within the weight housing. The weight lock is operatively connectable between the eccentric weight and the weight housing to secure the offset mass in the weighted position within the weight housing whereby, as the downhole tool advances through the wellbore, the eccentric weight gravitationally urges a portion of the downhole tool toward the bottom of the wellbore.
