Abstract

Methods, apparatus, and systems for low-flow sampling of a fluid source. One illustrative embodiment of the invention is directed to a method for manually sampling a fluid source in a well, including exerting a downward pressure on a sample tube (15), disposed within a well insert (23), to allow fluid to pass from the well through a portion of the well insert and into the sample tube (15) to fill at least a portion of the sample tube with the fluid. Another illustrative embodiment of the invention is directed to a method for securing a well insert (23) to an inner wall of a well, including arranging stabilizers (9) on the well insert in a non-extended position, introducing the well insert into the well, arranging the stabilizers (9) on the well insert to in an extended position, and expanding a portion of a gasket (11) on the well insert such that the portion of the gasket conforms to a circumference of the inner wall of the well.
