The invention provides an apparatus for determining the location and/or the displacement of an object (20) in a wellbore (1), comprising: a reel (40) of wound optic fiber line (10) (or fiber) fixed to the object, and a light transmitter/receiver device (12) able to generate a signal and to measure a change of said signal; wherein the optic fiber line is: on a first position fixed to a reference point linked (4) to the light transmitter/receiver device and is on a second position unwound from the reel. The apparatus can further comprise a sensor and/or an actuator. Accordingly, the invention discloses the associated method to locate an object within the wellbore, the associated method to determine a property of an environment surrounding an object within the wellbore, and the associated method to actuate an object within the wellbore.

Appareil servant à identifier la position et/ou le décalage d'un objet (20) dans un puits de forage (1), ledit appareil comprenant: une bobine (40) autour de laquelle est enroulé un câble (10) à fibre optique (ou une fibre) fixé à l'objet, et un dispositif (12) émetteur-récepteur de lumière susceptible de générer un signal et de mesurer une variation dudit signal. Le câble à fibre optique est dans un premier temp, fixé à un point de référence (4) relié au dispositif émetteur-récepteur de lumière, et dans un deuxième temps, déroulé de la bobine. L'appareil peut comprendre en outre un capteur et/ou un actionneur. L'invention concerne également un procédé associé de positionnement d'un objet à l'intérieur du puits de forage, le procédé consistant à déterminer une propriété d'un milieu environnant de l'objet dans le puits de forage et à actionner l'objet dans le puits de forage.
