    摘要: A phase error in measurements made by a resistivity logging tool is estimated by positioning the tool above a conducting surface. Deviation of the measured phase difference between the transmitter and the receiver from 90° gives the phase error in the electronics. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

    摘要: The invention is a method and apparatus for determining an electrical property a formation surrounding a borehole with a measuring-while-drilling device. The apparatus an antenna configuration disposed along the outer face of an extendable stabilizer joined to a rotatable drill collar. Typically, two receivers and two transmitters are spaced along the longitudinal axis of the drill collar, with the two receivers spaced symmetrically in between the two transmitters. Alternatively, receivers and transmitters can be spaced along the circumference, possibly over multiple stabilizers. Multiple assemblies can be used. Data can be obtained with the transmitter-receiver assembly held in a stationary position or rotating circumferentially. Apparatus can be operated in a “broadside” configuration, an “endfire” configuration, or a configuration in which transmitter coils and receiver coils are oriented orthogonally to each other.

    摘要: A pseudo-image is produced by combining deep-reading azimuthally sensitive resistivity measurements with azimuthally insensitive resistivity measurements made by a multiple propagation resistivity tool. This image is useful in reservoir navigation. Features on the azimuthally sensitive measurements such as saddle-points and mid-points are diagnostic of bed geometry relative to the borehole.

    摘要: A transmitter on a bottomhole assembly (BHA) is used for generating a transient electromagnetic signal in an earth formation. A pair of receivers on the BHA receive signals that are indicative of formation resistivity and distances to bed boundaries. A time dependent calibration factor or a time-independent calibration factor may be used to combine the two received signals and estimate the distance to bed boundaries that are unaffected by the drill conductive body. Further improvement can be obtained by using copper shielding.

    摘要: Transient measurements made at two spaced apart receivers responsive to separate activation of two transmitters symmetrically disposed about the two receivers. The transmitters and receivers are on an instrument having a conductive body induces currents in the earth formation. The effect of the conductive body is removed by using deconvolving the signal at one receiver using the measured signal at the other receiver. The symmetric transmitter configuration also enables compensation for receiver differences.
