Abstract

A well imaging sensor device includes a sealed housing transparent to ultrasound waves and resistant to downhole pressures. The housing is configured to attach to a downhole equipment piece while allowing the downhole equipment piece to perform its intended function. Components in the housing include a battery, a motor, an ultrasound generator with an angled reflective surface, an ultrasound sensor spaced apart from the ultrasound generator, and ultrasonic amplification medium between the ultrasound generator and the ultrasound sensor. The ultrasound generator is mounted on a mount that rotates in response to the motor and extends through a seal that seals the ultrasound amplification medium away from the battery and the motor.
