A method of electrically logging a section of a wellbore includes circulating an oil-based wellbore fluid within the wellbore and allowing filtration of the oil-based wellbore fluid to form a conductive filtercake on a wall of the wellbore; placing within the wellbore a wellbore logging tool with at least one pad capable of applying a current to a portion of the conductive filtercake and wellbore wall; applying electrical current from the at least one pad; and collecting an electrical log of the portion of the wellbore that has had electrical current applied thereto.
