ABSTRACT:
An induction logging device is provided with additional electrodes. One set of electrodes provides voltages that are indicative of the current distribution in the borehole. The output of the first set of electrodes may be used for estimating formation resistivity. A second set of electrodes may be used to provide an image of the formation.
