Abstract:
A method for making directional resistivity measurements and forming a directional resistivity image of a subterranean formation includes processing a plurality of directional resistivity measurements and corresponding azimuth angles to calculate a first order harmonic representation at selected azimuth angles. A two dimensional borehole image may be formed by repeating the procedure at multiple measured depths in the borehole.
