Gommesson method

A specialized method of surveying a borehole, utilized when a magnetic compass cannot be used because of local magnetism. The instrument used is essentially a rigid tube, up to 30 ft (9.2 m) long, which is lowered into a borehole. The tube fits the borehole closely and contains a fine wire under tension. The difference between the arc of the tube, when bent at a crook in the borehole, and the chord of the wire is indicated by a stylus marking, which can be measured. The dip is read by etch tubes, and a directional orientation taken at the surface is carried down the hole by precise alignment of the tube and rods as they are lowered into the borehole.
