摘要:
An electromagnetic logging tool includes a support configured for disposal in a well; at least one antenna mounted on the support; and a plurality of coils mounted on the support proximate the at least one antenna, wherein the plurality of the coils are configured for selective connection with the at least one antenna. A methods for balancing an induction array on an electromagnetic logging tool includes measuring a mutual coupling between a transmitter and a receiver on the electromagnetic logging tool; and selectively connecting a subset of a plurality of coils on the electromagnetic logging tool to the transmitter or the receiver based on the measured mutual coupling.

A composite encased tool for making subsurface measurements in a borehole traversing a subsurface formation includes a conductive mandrel, a first composite layer wrapped around the conductive mandrel, the first composite layer having one or more slots, a source or sensor disposed in each of the one or more slots, and a second composite layer wrapped around the first composite layer with the source or sensor in the one or more slots.
摘要:
The present disclosure relates to a method to determine the vertical resistivity of a subsurface formation. A downhole logging tool having a plurality of spaced antennas, at least one of which is a transverse antenna, at least two of which are tilted antennas, and at least two of which are axial antennas is provided. Measurements involving the transverse and/or the tilted antennas of the downhole logging tool are obtained. Voltage ratios are formed using the measurements, and conditioning factors are formed by raising the determined voltage ratios not involving the transverse antenna to some arbitrary power. The sum of the exponents of the conditioning factors preferably equals one. A voltage ratio involving the transverse antenna is multiplied by the conditioning factors, and the vertical resistivity of the subsurface formation is determined using the resulting ratio.

An electromagnetic logging tool is disclosed that includes a support; and at least one four-coil array disposed on the support, wherein the at least one four-coil array comprises: a transmitter, a bucking coil, a receiver, and a trim coil. A method for balancing an induction array is disclosed that includes applying an alternating current to a transmitter of the induction array that comprises the transmitter, a bucking coil and a receiver; measuring a mutual coupling between the transmitter and the receiver; and adding an extra bucking coil, if the mutual coupling exceeds a selected criterion.
