In the search for new oil deposits and mapping their extent, a number of measurements are made down test bore holes and even while drilling a hole. Radiation from a radioactive source is scattered by the rock and detected by a photomultiplier tube and scintillator combination. Special photomultiplier tubes are used which can withstand temperatures of up to 200°C encountered several thousand meters underground.
