    摘要: An apparatus for determining the resistivity of formations surrounding an earth borehole. An elongated electrically conductive body is movable through the borehole. A first transmitter establishes a first current in the body from a first transmitter position on the body, the first current traveling in a path that includes the body and the formations. An electrode is mounted on the body and has a surface that is electrically isolated from the surface of the body. A first electrical signal, resulting from the first current, is measured at the electrode. A second transmitter establishes a second current in the body from a second transmitter position on the body that is spaced from the first transmitter position, the second current traveling in a path that includes the body and the formations. A second electrical signal, resulting from the second current, is measured at the electrode. A current monitor measures the axial current passing a monitor position on the body to obtain a monitor current value. An indication of formation resistivity is derived as a function of the first electrical signal, the second electrical signal, and the monitor current value.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for making directional measurements of earth formations surrounding a borehole. New antenna coil shield designs are utilized to provide selective attenuation of at least one electromagnetic energy field component as the component interacts with the shield. The new shields are implemented in several downhole tool configurations to provide azimuthally focused formation measurements. In effect, the new shield filters interacting electromagnetic energy field components to pass those components corresponding to a magnetic dipole oriented at an angle from the tool axis. The shields thereby alter a coil's envelope of influence to electromagnetic energy. The new shields also form part of a system for making directional measurements while drilling.

    摘要: A logging tool for use in determining the resistivity of an underground formation surrounding a borehole comprises a mandrel with two transmitters spaced apart thereon, each serving to establish a current in the mandrel and in the underground formation. A series of electrodes are spaced along the body between the transmitters and sensors, located at each electrode, measure radial current flow along a path from the mandrel to the underground formation via a respective electrode. Sensors also provide the axial current flowing along the whole mandrel and at positions corresponding to each electrode. A method of determining the formation resistivity includes the steps of measuring the radial currents R.sub.1 R.sub.2 from the mandrel to the formation via each electrode and obtaining the axial currents M.sub.01 M.sub.02 along the mandrel at each electrode due to each transmitter; measuring the total axial current M.sub.12 along the mandrel from the first or second transmitter and deriving the resistivity of the formation from the radial focused current R.sub.c for each electrode according to the relationship R.sub.c =1/M.sub.21 (M.sub.02 R.sub.1 +M.sub.01 R.sub.2).
