Aneroid barometer : An instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure. It is constructed on the following principles : an aneroid capsule(Vidie capsule, which is a thin, disk-shaped box or capsule, usually metallic) is partially evacuated of gas, and is restrained from collapsing by an external or internal spring. The deflection of the spring will be nearly proportional to the difference between the internal and external pressures.

The first focused measurements were found on the market in 1950 under the name Laterologs. Since then, Laterologs have evolved from the first generation called Laterolog 3 (LL3) into Laterologs 7 (LL7) Laterologs 8 (LL8) and dual Laterologs (LLd). 3, record 15, English, - focused%2Dcurrent%20log

Type de diagraphie électrique souvent utilisée quand on fore avec un fluide de forage à l'eau salée. Le latérolog mesure la résistance de la formation, mais parce que le courant appliqué est centré sur une petite zone, on peut faire d'avantage de mesures sélectives. 3, record 15, French, - diagraphie%20focalis%C3%A9e%20de%20r%C3%A9sistivit%C3%A9

La nécessité pour une mesure de résistivité indépendante de la résistivité de la boue, du diamètre du sondage et de l'épaisseur des couches a été ressentie très tôt. Il a fallu cependant attendre 1950 pour avoir les premières mesures focalisées commercialisées sous le nom de Laterologs. 2, record 15, French, - diagraphie%20focalis%C3%A9e%20de%20r%C3%A9sistivit%C3%A9
