Patent 7392137 was granted and assigned to Baker Hughes on June, 2008 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Multifrequency focusing is applied to measurements made with a multicomponent resistivity logging tool in an earth formation having resisitivity anisotropy. From knowledge of relative dip and azimuth of the borehole relative to the formation, two modes can be separated, one of which is dependent substantially on the horizontal resistivity. Alternatively, mode separation and angle determination can be made simultaneously.
