摘要:
A method is provided for determining formation resistivity, anisotropy and dip from wellbore measurements includes moving a well logging instrument through subsurface formations. The instrument includes longitudinal magnetic dipoles and at least one of tilted and transverse magnetic dipoles. Formation layer boundaries and horizontal resistivities of the formation layers are determined from longitudinal magnetic dipole measurements. Vertical resistivities of the formation layers are determined by inversion of anisotropy sensitive measurements. Improved vertical resistivities of the formation layers and dips are determined by inverting symmetrized and anti-symmetrized measurements. Improved vertical resistivities, improved boundaries and improved dips are determined by inversion of the all dipole measurements. Improved horizontal resistivities, further improved layer boundaries and further improved dips are determined by inversion of all dipole measurements.

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.
