ABSTRACT:
A wall-engaging apparatus for microinductively investigating a characteristic of earth formation traversed by a borehole includes an antenna set mounted in a longitudinally elongated body adapted for a sliding engagement with the wall of the borehole. The antenna set includes a first antenna element, a second antenna element, and a third antenna element, the respective locations and orientations of the second and third antenna elements being selected to place the second and third antenna elements in electromagnetic symmetry relative to the first antenna element. Differentially coupling the second and third antenna elements. Either the first antenna element or the differentially-coupled second and third antenna elements may be energized by suitable means, while the other is coupled for receiving signals indicative of the characteristic.
