Method to estimate formation resistivity
Abstract:
A method and system for estimating a resistivity of a formation. A method for estimating a resistivity of a formation may comprise disposing a downhole tool into a borehole, wherein the downhole tool comprises a pad, an injector electrode, and a return electrode, injecting a current signal into the formation from the injector electrode, measuring a voltage signal between the injector electrode and the return electrode; and determining a formation resistivity and a formation dielectric constant from at least one of the voltage signal, at least one property of the downhole tool, and at least one property of the borehole. A system for estimating a resistivity of a formation may comprise a downhole tool. The downhole tool may comprise a pad, wherein the pad comprises an injector electrode and a return electrode. The system may further comprise a conveyance for disposing the downhole tool in a borehole and an information handling system.
