L'amorçage de la déviation avec le sifflet se fait en utilisant une tige relativement souple. En remplaçant cette tige par deux éléments réunis avec un joint à la cardan, on obtient une «genouillère» qui se met en œuvre sans sifflet [...]. Pendant la descente de l'instrument, un dispositif spécial maintient un certain angle entre les deux éléments des tiges. Arrivé au fond, l'outil convenablement orienté se coince d'un côté et l'élément de tige supérieur de l'autre. Après avoir appuyé pour ancrer l'outil, on commence à tourner et l'on fore ainsi 5 à 10 m avant l'alésage au diamètre normal. Cet outil utilisé pour les déviations dans les formations tendres permet d'incliner progressivement l'axe du forage jusqu'à 4 à 5°. Il nécessite souvent un élargissement du fond du trou. 3, record 1, French, - genouill%C3%A8re
