Problems solved by technology

[0004] The closest prior art method has the disadvantage that when there are coupling buckles in the space between the probe electrodes that have a linear resistivity different from that of the casing string, the resistivity measurements of the bedrock around the string will be different. There is obvious distortion

Abstract

The invention relates to the geophysical examination of wells and can be used for determining the electrical resistivity of rock beds surrounding a well cased in a metal column. The inventive method consists in using a sonde embodied in the form of two current electrodes located on the opposite sides with respect of at least thee measuring electrodes, in alternately supplying electric current, inmeasuring, by means of a measuring devices, during each current supply, a supplied current, a potential on a central measuring electrode and the potential difference between the outer measuring electrodes and the central electrode, in using the specific electrical resistivity of the rock beds surrounding the cased well in the form of the electrical parameter of the electrical logging of the casedwells, in forming a measuring circuit according to the resistivity pattern of the layers of the rock beds surrounding the well and of those sections of a casing string which are provided with the collars, wherein the sonde, whose measuring electrodes are spaced without respecting equidistance requirements and current electrodes are embodied in such a way that they can be used in the form of measuring electrodes is applied. In addition, the inventive method also consists in measuring the potential difference of an electric field between the current electrode, to which the current is not supplied at the present switching, and the central measuring electrode, by means of additional measuring devices, and in determining a specific electrical resistivity according to a formula referred thereto.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to geophysical inspection of wells and can be used to determine the resistivity of formation beds surrounding wells that are casing within metal strings. Background technique [0002] The prior art method closest to the present invention in terms of technical idea is a method for electrical logging of a cased hole, including applying an electric current, using multiple Electrode probe (sonde) to measure the electric field potential, wherein said at least two current electrodes are remote from the measuring electrode area and placed symmetrically with respect to the central measuring electrode (see priority date 20.02.2001, publication date 12.2001 10th Russian patent 2,176,802, IPC G01V3 / 20). Each current electrode is alternately supplied with current from the same source. Each time a current is applied, the electric field potential is measured at the point of contact between the central measuring electrode and the colum...
