Apparatus for determining the path of a well bore during drilling, comprises an inertial measurement unit (12) for providing data from which position, velocity and attitude can be derived, the measurement unit comprising a plurality of inertial sensors mounted on a platform assembly which is, in use, disposed within a drill string (6), and a drive unit (5) for rotating the platform assembly so as to control the rate of angular displacement of the platform assembly with respect to an Earth fixed reference frame.

Cet appareil servant à déterminer le trajet d'un trou de forage pendant le forage comprend un mesureur inertiel (12) destiné à fournir des données à partir desquelles il est possible de dériver une position, une vitesse et une position d'équilibre, ce mesureur comprenant plusieurs capteurs inertiels montés sur un ensemble plate-forme, lequel, lors de son utilisation, est placé dans une colonne de forage (6). Cet appareil comprend également une unité d'entraînement (5) destinée à faire tourner l'ensemble plate-forme, de manière à commander la vitesse de déplacement angulaire de cet ensemble par rapport à un cadre de référence fixé au sol.
