Abstract
A well logging assembly adapted to collect data from the well, comprises a downhole locomotive to move a downhole portion of the logging assembly into the well, a power conduit to supply power from the surface to the downhole portion and a data conduit to transmit data from the downhole portion to the surface. The power conduit comprises a single electrical conductor to send electrical current to the downhole portion from a power supply at the surface. The downhole portion comprises an electrical contact exposed to the well for transmission of the return path for the electrical current to the surface.
