INDUCTION LOGS
Induction sondes measure resistivity in wells drilled
with non-conductive mud. They are focused to
minimize the effect of the borehole and the invaded
zone. Induction logs measure conductivity rather than
resistivity.
The DIL (Dual Induction Laterlog) system consists of a
deep investigation induction sonde (ILd), a medium
range induction sonde (ILm), a Laterlog 8 (LL8) and an
SP electrode.
The three focused resistivity readings can be used to
accurately determine the true resistivity (Rt), even if
the invaded zone is extensive.
The formation resistivity is necessary to calculate
porosity and fluid saturations using other logs.
