Abstract

See full text

At least one transmitting coil 1 and at least one receiving coil 2 are disposed along the bore axis 18 of a borehole 7 such that these coils are inclined and face each other, thus causing these coils to have directivity for examining electric characteristics of a formation around the borehole. More specifically, a method of and an apparatus for directional induction logging are provided, which permit measurement of the electric conductivity distribution of a formation in the circumferential direction in a range of several meters around the borehole and also imaging reflecting the electric conductivity.
