Detection performance and inversion processing of logging-while-drilling extra-deep azimuthal resistivity measurements

Abstract We present systematic investigations on the physics, detection performance and inversion of logging-while-drilling extra-deep azimuthal resistivity measurements (EDARM). First, the definitions of EDRAM measurements are discussed, followed by the derivation of the attenuation and phase-shift...
