Abstract (en)

[origin: US2006198742A1] A sampling system used in collecting samples of connate fluid from within hydrocarbon bearing formations. The sampling system comprises a sonde disposed within a wellbore formed proximate to the formation of interest. The sonde includes a sample probe insertable into the formation and a drawdown pump in fluid communication with the sample probe. The drawdown pump is motivated by an associated electrically responsive material, where the electrically responsive material can be comprised of a piezoelectric material, a electroactive polymer, or some other electrically responsive material.
