Summary of Guide4.1 This guide applies to induction logging and is to be usein conjunction with Guide D 5753.4.2 This guide briefly d

22、escribes the significance and use,apparatus, calibration and standardization, procedures andreports for conducting induction logging.5. Significance and Use5.1 An appropriately developed, documented, and executedguide is essential for the proper collection and application ofinduction logs. This guid

23、e is to be used in conjunction withGuide D 5753.5.2 The benefits of its use include improving: selection ofinduction logging methods and equipment; induction logquality and reliability; and usefulness of the induction log datafor subsequent display and interpretation.5.3 This guide applies to common

24、ly used induction loggingmethods for geotechnical applications.5.4 It is essential that personnel (see Section 8.3.2, GuideD 5753) consult up-to-date textbooks and reports on theinduction technique, application, and interpretation methods.6. Interferences6.1 Most extraneous effects on induction logs

25、 are caused bylogging procedures, instrument problems, borehole conditions,and geologic conditions.6.2 Logging procedures include incorrect range setting,incorrect calibration, and logging too fast.6.3 Instrument problems include electrical leakage and tem-perature drift.6.3.1 Induction probes need

26、to warm up and stabilize withthe borehole environment. Some probes record internal elec-tronic temperature; this temperature record should not beconfused with a borehole fluid temperature log.6.4 Effects of borehole fluid is dependent on probe design,borehole diameter, and borehole-fluid conductivit

27、y. Inductionmeasurements can be made in air-, water-, or mud-filledboreholes. Induction probes are designed to minimize effects ofborehole fluid. Conductivity of borehole fluid will significantlyaffect induction response only in larger diameter boreholes(typically, greater than 8 to 10 in. (20 to 25

28、 cm) diameter).6.4.1 Effects of mud-invasion zone is dependent on probedesign, invasion depth, and mud and formation conductivity.6.4.2 Steel or other conductive material interferes and mayprohibit induction measurements. PVC casing and other non-conductive casing does not affect induction response.

29、 Clayseals and sand/gravel packs may affect induction response inlarger diameter boreholes (typically, greater than 8 to 10 in. (20to 25 cm) diameter).6.5 Geologic Conditions:6.5.1 In high-conductivity formations and ground water, theelectrical conductivity measured by induction is less than thetrue

30、 electrical conductivity due to skin effects. Some probescorrect for skin effect assuming a homogeneous medium.6.5.2 In steeply dipping formations (greater than 60 de-grees), electrical anisotropy affects apparent bed thickness andlocation of bed contacts and corrections need to be applied.6.6 Theor

31、etical and empirical tool response curves andinversion algorithms may be applied to correct for manyinterferences.7. Apparatus7.1 A geophysical logging system has been described in thegeneral guide (Section 6, Guide D 5753).7.2 Induction logs are collected with probes that haveelectromagnetic transm

32、itter and receiver coils (Fig. 1).7.2.1 Transmitter and receiver coils typically are spacedabout 20 in. (50 cm) apart. In deep-induction configurations,coils are spaced at about 40 in (1 m) apart.7.2.2 The transmitter coil emits an electromagnetic signal inthe range of 20 to 40 KHz that induces eddy

33、 currents in themedium surrounding the borehole.7.2.3 The receiver coil senses the primary and secondarymagnetic fields.7.2.4 Strength of the secondary magnetic field is a functionof the electrical conductivity of the surrounding medium.7.2.5 One or more additional coils are used to cancel theprimar

34、y field, reduce sensitivity to the borehole fluid, and focusthe horizontal response.D 6726 01 (2007)27.3 Volume of Investigation and Depth of Investigation ofinduction measurements are dependent on coil configurationand increases with increased spacing between transmitter andreceiver coils.7.3.1 The

35、 Depth of Investigation typically varies from 20 to30 in. (50 to 75 cm) (Fig. 2), but is up to 130 in. (325 cm) indeep-induction configurations.7.3.2 The radial distance from which log response is negli-gible typically varies from 3 to 5 in. (7.5 to 12.5 cm), but is 20in. (50 cm) or more in deep-ind

36、uction configurations.7.3.3 Induction probes used for geotechnical applicationstypically can be logged inside of a 2 in. (5 cm) diametermonitoring well.7.3.4 Dual-induction probes have coil configurations thatmeasure two different depths of investigations including deepinduction and generally are gr

37、eater than 2 in. (5 cm) indiameter.7.4 Vertical Resolution of induction measurements is depen-dent on coil configuration.7.4.1 Vertical Resolution is approximated by dividing thetransmitter-receiver coil spacing by 1.5.7.4.2 Vertical Resolution typically is about 14 in. (35 cm).7.4.3 Vertical Resolu

38、tion is up to 6 feet in deep-inductionconfigurations.7.5 Typical accuracy is within 5 percent at 30 mS/m.7.6 Additional logs may also be run in combination withinduction.7.6.1 Induction probes commonly have the capability tosimultaneously record gamma along with electrical conductiv-ity.7.6.2 Induct

39、ion and gamma logs can be collected in open orboreholes cased with non-conductive materials (PVC, fiber-glass, etc.) that are air, water, or mud filled.7.6.3 Some induction probes may also record magneticsusceptibility simultaneously with the electric conductivitymeasurement. Note induction probes t

40、ypically are not opti-mized for magnetic susceptibility measurements.FIG. 1 Electromagnetic-Induction Logging System (8)FIG. 2 Cumulative Response Versus Radial Distance for a Typical Electromagnetic-Induction Probe Showing Depth of Investigation andRadial Focusing (11)D 6726 01 (2007)37.7 Measureme

41、nt resolution of induction probes is deter-mined by probe design. Measurement resolution is typically0.01 mS/m.7.8 A variety of induction logging equipment available isfor geotechnical investigations. It is not practical to list all ofthe sources of potentially acceptable equipment.8. Calibration an

42、d Standardization of Electromagnetic-Induction Logs8.1 General:8.1.1 National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) calibration and standardization procedures do not existfor induction logging.8.1.2 Induction logs can be used in a qualitative (forexample, comparative) or quantitative manner de

43、pending uponthe project objectives.8.1.3 Induction calibration methods and frequency shall besufficient to meet project objectives.8.1.3.1 Calibration and standardization should be performedeach time an induction probe is suspected to be damaged,modified, repaired, and at periodic intervals.8.1.3.2

44、Induction probe calibration is sensitive to the effectsof temperature, humidity, calibration coil position, and conduc-tive material.8.2 Calibration is the process of establishing values forinduction response and is accomplished in free air and withrepresentative physical models. Calibration data va

45、lues relatedto the physical properties are recorded in units (for example,counts per second) that are converted to units of electricalconductivity (mS/m).8.2.1 At least two, and preferably more, values, whichapproximate the anticipated operating range, are needed toestablish a calibration curve (for

46、 example, 10 and 100 mS/m).8.2.2 Typical tolerances for calibration are 5 percent ofmeasured standard.8.2.3 Calibration is done in an area free of conductiveobjects within the Volume of Investigation.8.2.4 Free-air calibration check to approximately zero elec-trical conductivity is accomplished by s

47、uspending the probe inair where humidity is minimal and away from conductivematerial.8.2.5 The physical model typically used to calibrate induc-tion response is a calibration ring.8.2.5.1 A calibration ring is a ring of non-conductive mate-rial (plastic or wood), which has a wire loop with a resista

48、ncethat produces a known response.8.2.5.2 The position of the calibration ring on the probemust be duplicated for accurate calibration. Calibration ringsdesigned not be positioned at the center of the measurementpoint are more sensitive to changes in their position.8.2.6 Calibration also can be esta

49、blished in a body of watersuch as a lake with a known electrical conductivity that is largeenough to be infinite with respect of the Volume of Investiga-tion of the probe.8.2.7 Calibration should be performed when the probetemperature is as close to the borehole temperature as possible.This is most readily performed by recalibrating immediatelyafter logging a borehole.8.3 Standardization is the process of checking loggingresponse to show evidence of repeatability and consistency.8.3.1 Calibration insures standardization.8.3.2 A representative borehole may be used to period
