Method and apparatus for deep transient resistivity measurement while drilling

摘要

A method for estimating a property of an earth formation penetrated by a borehole includes conveying a drill tubular through the borehole and transmitting a signal into the formation with a transmitter transducer disposed at the drill tubular. The method further includes receiving a first signal with a first receiver transducer having a sensitivity oriented in a first direction and disposed an axial distance from the transmitter transducer and receiving a second signal with a second receiver transducer having a sensitivity oriented in a second direction different from the first direction and disposed an axial distance from the transmitter transducer. The method also includes calculating a corrected signal that corrects for at least one of bending and torsion of the drill tubular between the transmitter transducer and the first and second receiver transducers using the first signal and the second signal and estimating the property using the corrected signal.
