Abstract

See full text

A method for eliminating the influence of drill string magnetization on an azimuth measurement made by a magnetometer package disposed in the drill string. The method comprises first eliminating the influence of the cross-axial components of the drill string magnetization by taking magnetometer readings at various angular orientations of the drill string and then eliminating the influence of the axial component of the drill string magnetization.
