The paper discusses the application of the heavy ion beam probe (HIBP) diagnostic to the Globus-M2 spherical tokamak. Probing beam trajectory calculations were conducted to find the optimal position for HIBP primary and secondary beam-linesin the realistic machine geometry. Three configurations of the vacuum vessel ports of Globus-M2were considered for the regime with toroidal magnetic field Btor=0.7 T and plasma current Ipl=0.5 MA. The optimal probing scheme with the widest area of the plasma cross-section covered by the detector grid was selected. For this scheme, the secondary beam-line was proposed.
