Dip correction for array induction tool data

摘要

A system and method of correcting induction logging data for relative dip, wherein an induction logging tool is utilized to collect initial induction logging data at a plurality of frequencies. The initial induction logging data is then corrected for skin effect and borehole effect, after which, inversion is performed on the processed induction logging data to determine a dip effect correction. The dip effect correction is then applied to the initial induction logging data in order to yield induction logging data that is dip corrected to reflect a zero relative dip. Once dip corrected, the induction logging data can be used with resistivity methodologies generally designed for instances where no dip is present in the formation under analysis. In certain embodiments, the inversion step utilizes an additive correction for the dip effect correction.
