摘要:
A logging tool and method for winding a multi-component induction (MCI) antenna is presented. The method eliminates unwanted dipole signals that are created by the voltage drop that takes place in the transmitter. The antenna is made of at least two parts physically separated, one on each side of the mandrel. The winding method is performed in a way that creates at least four windings arranged to eliminate dipole signals attributable to an asymmetric voltage distribution. The midpoint of the conductive wire that for is the antenna windings may be electrically attached to the tool body. This method is suitable for the winding of the cross-components X and Y of the MCI coil arrays.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a logging tool induction coil form having a coating layer, which is easy to form to tight tolerances, bonded to at least a portion of the outer surface of the ceramic hollow cylindrical core. A plurality of parallel circumferential grooves are machined into the coating layer. Since the coating material is easy to machine, the parallel circumferential grooves can be machined to the tight tolerances needed in logging applications at a fraction of the time and cost of machining ceramic-only forms.

摘要:
An apparatus and method for performing high transverse resolution voltage measurements in downhole logging tools utilized to determine the resistivity of an adjacent portion of a borehole wall. Two current electrodes 508 and 509 are energized by an excitation source to create an oscillatory electric field in a borehole wall. The voltage drop from each voltage electrode in a row of laterally spaced voltage electrodes 604 is measured relative to a shared voltage electrode 606 longitudinally spaced from the row of electrodes. The differential voltage is used in combination with a measured current flow to determine a resistivity value for the borehole. A second row of laterally spaced voltage electrodes 608 having electrodes laterally offset from the electrodes of the first row is included to provide high transverse resolution. A common mode voltage at the shared voltage electrodes is measured and utilized to minimize the resistivity measurement error.
摘要:
A system and method for reducing borehole effects in a borehole within a subterranean formation is disclosed. The apparatus includes a fluid excluder, which includes a sleeve body and a sleeve opening defined by the sleeve body. The sleeve may be sized to fit around an induction tool. The sleeve body may include a fluid passageway therethrough, which may divert drilling fluids when the apparatus is deployed downhole. The apparatus may further include an electrode disposed within the fluid passageway for reducing the electrical current in the drilling fluid and thereby improve the readings obtained by logging devices.
