Apparatus including an equipotential housing and plurality of focused current electrodes for electrically logging a well formation at more than one lateral distance from a borehole
A well logging apparatus is described for obtaining information for measuring electrical properties of a formation intersected by a well bore, comprising: cable means for moving a housing through the well bore; an elongated housing having a continuous substantially equal potential along its length, the housing including: a first electrically conductive cylindrical member having a first threaded end portion; a first electrically conductive hub member having a second threaded end portion connected to the first threaded end portion. A second electrically conductive cylindrical member having a fourth threaded end portion connected to the third threaded end portion. A second electrically conductive hub member having a sixth threaded end portion connected to the fifth threaded end portion. A third electrically conductive cylindrical member having an eighth threaded end portion adapted to be connected to the seventh threaded end portion.
