double- or triple-tube coring (according to context) Explanation: I totally disagree with what was suggested previously because there are no hits when searching sheathed coring unit on Google. I suggest double- or triple-tube coring, the description below helps determine which of the two systems would be required in the context of your translation: https://goo.gl/dNN9F7 (Click on the Coring Methods page) Double-tube core barrels differ from single-tube barrels by essentially isolating the drill core from the flusing fluid […] Simple versions of this type of core barrel use a rotating inner tube that requires a small fraction (≈ 10%) of the drilling fluid to circulate around the drill core to prevent binding and direct contact of the sample with the tube. Most double-tube systems now use a fixed inner tube that requires no flush fluid around the drill core and thus causes fewer disturbances to the sample. The triple-tube core barrel, in concept, is essentially the same as the double-tube (with the fixed inner tube). It differs in the way the specimen is recovered in that the inner tube is fitted with yet a third sleeve or split tubes in which the drill core is housed. Example sentence(s):
