Method and apparatus for investigation of annulus in borehole

专利摘要:
An acoustic method and apparatus for investigating an earth formation penetrated by a borehole are described. Acoustic transducers are mounted on a tool to accurately determine the distance between a segment of the tool and the wall of the borehole. The acoustic transducers are positioned in such manner that the stand-off distance between individual resistivity measuring electrodes in an array, which is also mounted on the tool segment, and the borehole wall can be measured. The stand-off measurement is recorded and may be used to correct the electrode resistivity measurements, In one embodiment a calibration of acoustic transducers as a function of depth is obtained by employing acoustic calibrating transducers to compensate for borehole environment effects on the performance of the acoustic transducers as well as determine the acoustic velocity of the borehole fluid, such as mud. Several embodiments are described.

(54) METHOD FOR INSPECTION OF A CLEARANCE IN A DRILLING WELL AND A DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION
(57) The invention relates to well logging. Pel invention - improving the accuracy of the survey. For this purpose, the main narrowly directed pulses of acoustic energy are directed to individual segments of the borehole wall from a part of the tool, which is located along its length near the microelectrode array. Signals from multi-point acoustic transducers are also sent. The position of the points relative to each grid electrode is set, and they are distributed relative to the microelectrode grid with the ability to determine the distance between the borehole wall. and each individual electrode grid. The acoustic-energy pulses form rays, the cross-sectional dimensions of which are commensurate with the spatial resolution, f provided by the electrodes. In addition, the first test acoustic pulses from the first calibration transducer are directed at a distance excluding the imposition of transducer-excited pulses and pulses reflected from the first target. The first test impulses reflected from the first target are detected. Calibration signals are obtained from the latter, varying as a function of depth. The second test acoustic pulses are directed from the second transducer through the drilling fluid to the second target on the instrument. The second test pulses that are reflected by the second target are detected, from which they receive signals determining the velocity of the acoustic wave in the drilling fluid as a function of depth. The gap between the electrodes and the borehole wall is corrected for calibration signals and signals determining the speed of the acoustic wave in the drilling fluid. A device for carrying out this method contains a node for determining the measured parameter, made in the form of a microregion. a set of overlapping rows of electrodes for measuring the resistivity of the rock. The device also has a node for determining the size of the gap in the form of means for directing pulses of acoustic energy. 2 sec. and 8 hp f-ly, 17 pe.

A device for inspecting a gap in a borehole 1, when examining earth formations passed by a drilling tool 2, contains a node for determining the measured parameter (electrical resistivity) installed on bucket 3 of iBoro tool 2, and determining the size of the gap SO between the drilling tool 2 and the wall 4 of the well 1 and the unit for automatically correcting the value of the measured parameter, taking into account the size of the gap.
The drilling tool 2 has a spring 5 and a segment 3 in the form of a sled sliding along the wall 4 of the well 1. Other devices may be used to communicate with the wall 4, such as a pad or an articulated pillow, for example.
The unit for determining the measured parameter is made in the form of a micro-grid of a number of close overlapping rows of electrodes 7 installed on segment 3 for measuring the electrical resistivity Ri of the rock in the continuous annular zone of the wall 4 of the well I with a resolution corresponding to the transverse dimensions of the electrodes 7 The dimensions of the latter are chosen as small as possible, on the order of several millimeters in diameter, which provides a measurement of the resistance Ri of relatively small anomalies of this resistance. ivleni such are present in the places of fracture (crack 8 or 9 at the border section between the thin cushions 10 and II (FIG. 2).
Despite the presence of the spring 5, which presses the microgrid of the electrodes 7 against the wall 4 of the borehole 1, a gap SO can form between the electrodes 7 and the wall 4. The formation of a gap leads to the fact that the results obtained from resistance measurements become difficult to interpret. Such gaps may, for example, arise as a result of the presence of a cavity in front of the segment 3 of the drilling tool 2 or of a mudcake, or when lifting or tilting the drilling tool 2.
The effect of the gap can be estimated, for example, in accordance with (lg.2, where in one case the electrode 7 is closely pressed against the wall 4 and in the other is at the distance of the gap SO from step 4. In the case of close contact, the output current electrode 7 when crossing the border 9 between the pads 10 and P with different resistances, is the form represented by curve 12. In the case when the electrode 7 crosses a crack, for example, such as crack 8, the presence of its high conductivity leads to a characteristic reaction (Fig. 2 as a curve 13).
in the case of a gap of SO or a mudcake 14 perpendicular to the electrode and the wall 4 of the borehole, the current distribution 15 is less focused than the current distribution 15 in the case of close fit. Moreover, the reactions of the electrode 7 to the surface of such anomalies as cracks or thin borders of the pillows are similar to those shown in curves 16 and 17. These curves show the alignment of the measurement currents of the electrodes 7, as if in a slower formation change. what it really is. Due to the high resolution of a number of 6 electrodes 7, about 2.5 mm to provide a detailed picture of the wall 4, the presence of a mudcake 14 or the conditions of inclination of the drilling tool 2 has a serious disturbing effect on the measurements eye electrode 7.
In order to compensate for this impact, the SO-S gap detection unit between the drilling tool 2 and the wall 4 of the well I is made in the form of means for directing acoustic energy pulses in the direction of the wall 4 of the borehole 1 located on the drilling tool 2 with the ability to determine a gap 80 between the respective row of 6 electrodes 7 of the microgrid and the wall 4 of the borehole 1, and the generation of reflection signals arising from the action of pulses. And also in the form of means for generating from the reflection signals the signals of the gap SO, indicating the size of the gap SO of the micro-grid from the wall 4 of the well I.
The signals of the gap SO and the signals Ri are transmitted via cable 18 to the surface in block 19, which generates appropriate signals for recording on the logger 20 of the drill log, in which the currents of the electrodes 7 and the gap measurements SO are plotted respectively in the form of a resistance graph 21 and the gap SO as a function of depth.
The means for directing acoustic energy pulses in the direction of the wall 4 of the bore I have a variety of acoustic transducers — acoustic sensors 22 for determining the gap, calibration acoustic sensor 23, and measuring acoustic.

cue sensor 24 speeds of an acoustic wave in a drilling fluid.
The sensors 22 are located relative to the micro-lattice of the electrodes 7 on the drilling tool 2 with the possibility of determining the distance (gap SO) between the wall 4 of the borehole 1 and each individual electrode 7 of the micro-grid. Each of the plurality of acoustic sensors 22 is located in a grating 25 transversely oriented with respect to the longitudinal axis of the drilling tool 2, placed offset by d from the microelectrode grating vertically, with the ability to determine the gap SO against each electrode 7 (Fig. 5). Acoustic sensors, for example, in vnde pair of sensors 22, are located above the microelectrode array with an offset value of d, and the sensors 22 of the grid 25 are located below the microelectrode grid.
Placing the sensors 22 at known (predetermined) distances from the electrodes 7 and in their immediate vicinity allows one to accurately determine the displacement of the sensors 22 in depth, and the readings of the sensors 22 can be interpolated to obtain a gap value against each electrode 7 in row 6. For example if the drilling tool 2 has a significant slope (Fig. 6), then it can be determined

the difference of the gaps SO ,, and, measured respectively by a pair of sensors 22, located above a row of 6 electrodes 7, and of the sensors 22 of a grid 25. The corresponding difference of gaps can be determined against each electrode 7 in row 6.
The need to use a variety of acoustic sensors 22, instead of one, is due to the following factors.
The small surface irregularities of borehole 1 against row 6 of electrodes 7 lead to different perceptions of rock resistance by different electrodes 7 in row 6. The cross-sectional shape of the borehole .1 may be such that it leads to unpredictable orientations of the drilling tool 2 along with respect to the wall 4 of the well I.
It is impossible to eliminate the influence of these factors on the measurement of rock resistance. Therefore use
a plurality of acoustic sensors 22 for measuring the gap against each of the electrodes 7 in the row 6.
Since the size of the gap does not vary uniformly beyond short distances, it is preferable to form the grating 25 with the sensors 22 shifted in the direction (Figs. 1 and 5).
Each of the acoustic sensors 22 (FIG. 2) has a piezoelectric element 26 and is provided with an acoustic pulse delay line 27, the interface 28 of which ends essentially on the same surface as for the electrodes 7 on the drilling tool 2. Time T, line 27 delays selected from the condition of exclusion of the imposition of excitations excited by the sensor 22
a very long acoustic delay line 27 reduces the launch speed and increases the decomposition time of the reflections, which results in lower resolution. Delay line 27 for use at an operating frequency of 1 MHz with a sensor 22 of diameter 6 mm has a length of about 10 mm. The length is represented by the time T ,, which is necessary for the acoustic impulse to move to the interface 28. The interval T is used to pass the acoustic and pulse from the interface 28 to the wall A of well 1 and is measured as an indication of the size of the gap SO. Therefore, sensor 22 is also used to sense acoustic reflection. Ying

Sensors 22 (FIGS. 1-8) have a cylindrical shape with a diameter D of about 6 mm. The excitation pulses in sensors 22 cause the transmission of 25 acoustic waves with a frequency of about 1 MHz. With this operating frequency, the sensors 22 operate with a field in the region at a distance D /, so that the shape of the field remains substantially collimated at the distance of the gap, i.e. basically can be adjusted to a maximum gap of less than 20 mm. The spatial resolution of such a sensor is in the order of 5 to 10 mm.
The selection of these sizes and operating frequencies may vary. For example, the diameter D (Lig. 5) can be increased to obtain a longer collimated neighboring area with less sensitivity to the uneven surfaces of the wall 4 of the borehole 1. However, the large diameter provides a lower resolution that is great. clearance gaps.
The frequency of the sensor 22 can be increased to obtain a better resolution range and more

The acoustic delay line 27 is extended along length 1 to expand the size of the observed gap and reduce the source ring effect, if any. but

An indication of the size of the gap can be obtained by measuring the transit time of the acoustic pulse to the wall 4 and subtracting the transit time from it to the interface 28. The gap should be measured in such a way as to provide a difference in the definition of thickness that differs from each other by approximately 5 mm.
However, a change in pressure and temperature over the depth of the well affects the transit time of the acoustic pulse through the delay line 27 and the speed of the acoustic wave in the mud, which distorts the readings of the sensors 22 determining the size of the gap. To measure the environmental impact of borehole 1 on sensors 22, sensors 23 and 24 are used, each of which is provided with a delay line 27.
The calibration acoustic sensor (transducer) 23 (FIG. 5) has a construction similar to that of acoustic sensor 22 for determining the gap, and is provided with a target in the form of a reflective surface 29 providing acoustic reflections arising under the action of acoustic pulses from a calibration acoustic sensor 23 and detected them.

The measuring acoustic sensor 24 of the velocity V of the acoustic wave in the drilling fluid is supplied with a target in the reflecting surface 30 and the gap 31 of a given width S, which is made on the drilling tool 2, is filled with drilling mud and is located between the acoustic sensor (converter) 24 of the velocity of the acoustic wave in the drilling mud and a reflective surface 30, which provides acoustic reflections recorded by the sensor 24. The groove 31 is cut in the wall 32 of the lower part of the segment 3 of the drilling tool 2. However, the groove 31 may b It is also made in another place of the drilling tool 2 in the vicinity of a row of 6 sensors 7. It is preferable to place the groove 31 to the side or away from the segment 3 of the drilling tool 2.
Various modifications are also possible in a number of acoustic sensors 22. In the first modification (FIGS. 12-14), the means for directing acoustic energy pulses in the direction of the wall 4 of the borehole 1 have

Acoustic sensors 22 have a common reflecting surface 35, which is installed at the angle blunt 34 of segment 3 of the drilling tool 2 at an angle of 45 to its side surface 36 and to the direction of acoustic beams of sensors 22 located on surface 37 of the section, 1 which is opposite to the reflecting the surface 35. The recess 34 is filled with a material that performs the function of the acoustic delay line 27

The array 33 of acoustic sensors 22 for determining the gap is located at a distance from the reflecting surface 35 and from the side surface 36 of the drilling tool 2, which prevents the imposition of pulses excited by acoustic sensors 22 reflected from the wall 4 of the borehole 1 A number of 33 sensors 22 is located along the surface 36, the curvature of which is commensurate with the curvature of the wall 4 of the borehole 1.
The second modification of row 38 of acoustic sensors 22 (Figs. 15 and 16) was made in the complete series of two rows (Fig. 15) with
and approaches the acoustic impedance as close as possible to the acoustic reflecting surfaces 39 and 40 in the adjacent recesses 41 and 42, which are filled with material acting as delay line 27.
A third modification of the row 43 of the acoustic sensors 22 (Fig. 17) is formed by means of a layer 44 of acoustic material generating pulses. A series of 43 is located on top and attached to the layer 45 of acoustic absorbent material. Layer 44, row 43 is divided into separately excited sensors 22, from which generates a beam of acoustic energy through a layer of delay lines 27.
Means for directing acoustic energy pulses in the direction of the wall 4 of the borehole 1 contain nodes 46
to determine when the reflection signals exceed a threshold level determined by noise pulses, and nodes 47 responsive to calibration signals are not detected within a time period determined by calibration signals to reduce the reflection.

The method for inspecting the gap in the borehole is as follows.
In the study of the Earth's formation, the resistivity of the rock is measured by instrument 2, on the segment 3 of which there is a microelectrode array for measuring the electrical resistivity of the rock at discrete points of a plurality of close, overlapping rows 6, which measure the resistivity of the rock in the continuous annular zone of the wall 4 of the borehole 1 s resolution, corresponding to the transverse dimensions of the electrodes 7 in the grid. The main narrowly directed acoustic energy pulses are directed to the walls 4 of the borehole 1, the acoustic signals reflected from the wall 4 of the borehole 1 are detected, the values of the gap SO between the electrodes 7 and the wall 4 of the borehole 1 are determined from the reflected acoustic signals and the values of gap SO. In this case, the main narrowly directed siMnynbcoB acoustic energy is directed to individual segments of the wall 4 of the borehole 1 from the part of the tool 2 located along its length near the microelectrode 35

Additionally, the first test acoustic guides are directed. pulses from the first calibration converter 23 to the first target 29 on the tool 2, which is positioned from the first calibration converter 23 at a distance excluding the imposition of pulses and pulses excited by the specified converter 23

These are reflected from the first target 29. The first test pulses that are reflected from the first target 29 are detected, from which calibration signals are obtained, varying as a function of depth. The second test acoustic pulses from the second Transducer 24 are directed through the drilling fluid to the second light 30 on the instrument 2, which is positioned from the second transducer 24 at a distance that excludes the impulses and pulses reflected from the second target 30 from the second transducer 24. The second test pulses that are reflected by the second target 30 are detected, from which signals are obtained that determine the velocity of the acoustic wave in the drilling fluid as a function of depth, and y SO gap between the electrodes 7 and the wall of borehole 4 1 corrected for the calibration signals and the signals defining the acoustic wave velocity in the drilling fluid. In addition, additional narrowly directed acoustic energy pulses are directed from points of tool 2, which are located above and below the microelectrode array, as seen along the direction of tool 2.

Interrogation of measuring currents T; electrodes 7 is carried out by the switching unit 48 (FIG. I). Interrogated measuring currents at the output of the line
93 are transmitted over cable 18 to block 19, in which they are converted for recording on recorder 20. Signal processing unit 51 controls the operation of sensors 22-24 in the sequence determined by pulse generators 49 and provides a time interval determination using a pulse amplifier 50. Reflected Signals are amplified using node 46, the level of operation of which is set by node 47 controlled by block 51. Such, for example, reflected acoustic signals as signal 94 (FIG. 3) from the front surface are perceived and analyzed. 28 and a signal 9e from the surface 30 of wall 32. These signals contain time intervals DT g on line 96 to provide a signal 95 from the beginning of the acoustic pulse 97, which causes an acoustic reflected signal and an F value on line 98 of the reflected signal 95, which characterizes peak energy or its quantity. The time interval signal u f c.at of the line 99 is the time T of the pulse 97, which is necessary for its movement through the delay line 27. The signal E in line 100 characterizes the magnitude of the signal 94 reflected from the surface 28. The signal characterizing the velocity V of the acoustic wave in the drilling mud is transmitted over. line 101 in the form of a measured interval DT of the time required to overcome the acoustic impulse 97 in the drilling fluid in the distance in the form of the width of the groove 31.
The signal processing unit 51 begins to operate under the action of sensor 23 at time t, at which surface 29 a significant reflection signal 94 is generated, and at the end of the interval, corresponding to the transit time through delay line 27, the return is determined by time t. At the next time point, a pulse 97 is generated by the action of the sensor 24, which passes through the delay line 27. The acoustic impedance of the material of the delay line 27 is chosen as close as possible to the acoustic impedance of the drilling fluid in the well.
1, so that the reflections appearing on the interface 28 are very small. In spite of the choice of such materials, the impedance does not match exactly, which leads to the formation of a significant echo 94 at the end surface 28. A short time interval after the acoustic impulse transmitted through the space S and falling onto the surface 30 allows the definition of the echo signal 102 to exist. time t, (Lig. 9).
Starting from block 53 (Fig. 10), sensor 23 is triggered and time t is stored in block 54. In block 55, the threshold value is set. This level of operation is chosen high enough to eliminate the reaction to the system noise, but not too high so that you can distinguish the reflection from the surface 29 and the acoustic reflection from the interface 30 of the section in the groove 31. The selection of the trigger level can be done, for example, by changing the gain of the amplifier. whose input is connected via a multiplexer with a sensor 22. In this case, a comparator can be applied, which compares the output signal of the amplifier with a fixed reference value and determines the acoustics The echo is reflected when the output of the amplifier exceeds this reference value. Then, in block 56, it is determined whether the reflected signal has come, and when its arrival is confirmed, the arrival time is stored in block 57. The time difference between t and tj is determined in block 58 and is the time interval associated with the passage of acoustic pulses through the delay lines 27 of the sensors 22-24 The operation of the sensor 24 of the speed of the ak of the acoustic wave in the drilling mud is recorded in block 59, and the time of the triggering is recorded in block 60. Then the time window (interval) is selected in block 61, the duration time it is comparable to the maximum interval, which should take place on the surface of the acoustic reflection section 28. Then a delay is made in block 62 and the determination of the arrival of the reflected signal is made; if it does not come, a measurement is made in block 63, if the time of the specified time window (interval) has passed. The last measurement is for
when the acoustic impedances of the delay line and the drilling mud (the wells coincide so closely that the acoustic reflected signal is very small to determine. Therefore, if
the time window (interval) is interrupted, then in block 64 a lower TI level is triggered and a return is made to step (block) 59. Preferably, the reduction of the trigger level is done in small steps. The process of turning on the sensor 24 and reducing the threshold is continued until the arrival of the reflected
0 of the signal from section 28 in block 62. The time t at which instant this reflection is determined is stored in block 66. The amplitude A of the reflected signal on the surface 28
Section 5 is measured in block 67. There is no need to strive to reduce the trigger threshold in block 64 below the level at which the noise signal is determined instead of the reflected signal.
0 Accordingly, in block 65, a measurement is taken, showing whether the threshold for triggering has decreased to its lowest acceptable level. This level represents the function of the system noise and is set at some level above it. When the measured one does not indicate the lowest trigger level, the next step is performed in block 68, where
The Q value for time tq is equal to, and the amplitude of the reflected signal is at the level of the reference value Ad.
A delay is then implemented in block 69, where the reflected

If there is no reflected signal, the standby cycle is activated, which can be eliminated if, in block 70, the waiting time exceeds the maximum value T, .. The receive time t of the reflected signal 102 is stored in block 71. Then in block 72

the calibration interval of the RT can be determined as the difference between the time t and t and subtracting from this difference the transit time,
17
representing the transit time of the acoustic pulse through delay line 27. The speed of the acoustic wave in the drilling mud well can then be calculated in block 73 in accordance with the formula
V. -2A-
 DT
Two sensors 23 and 24 are used to generate signals representing the calibration dTj, g, j of delay line 27 and the velocity V of an acoustic wave in the drilling mud of a well. Acoustic sensors 22 for inspecting the gap are triggered, starting with the first sensor T, in block 74, and the time of this operation is stored in block 76. In block 75, the level
15
trigger a value of A + d, which is slightly larger than the measured amplitude A for the reflected signal 94 (Fig. 9) at the interface 28 (Fig. 8), which is measured in block 67. With this value of the triggering level reflection from the wall 4 of the borehole 1 can be carried out with a small gap. The detection of the returned signals from the triggering of the first sensor T y is analyzed in block -27 to determine the arrival of the reflected signal 95 (Fig. 3) using the operation whether the reflected signal 95 exceeds the trigger level level T which is set in block 75. If a reflection from the surface arrives 30, his arrival time tf is memorized in block 78 and the content of its energy Eg is measured.
In the case where there is no determination of the reflected signal from the surface 30 in block 77 from the triggering of the sensor, a wait cycle is introduced. If the time deviates from the preset time, since the operation of the sensor T in block 74 exceeds the delay interval that is performed in block 79, then the new lower level
, smaller than A + U, generated by the JQ of the test gap inspected by the sensors 22 in block 75, is set sequentially, if required, for greater efficiency thereafter in block 85. The lower level is measured by means of sensors 22 may be recorded in block 89 as a vice parameter, determined by the size of the gap.
Batshany provides consistent determination of small reflections from the borehole wall 4, the maximum altitude of which is less than the reflection obtained at the interface 28. Change to less than 7

This level of TN srabatshan increases the sensitivity in determining small reflections from a more distant surface, the section of the mudcake. A lower level is still not set so low that it detects noise peaks. Then there is a delay in block 86, during which acoustic reflection can be determined, which exceeds the lower level of the trigger and is set in block 85. If there is acoustic reflection, then return 15 to block 78 is made to memorize the time point C, the arrival of reflection measure the energy E g of the reflection from the wall 4 of the well.
When there is no definition of acoustic reflection in block 86, then in block 87 it is measured whether the elapsed time exceeds the maximum
T value. If it doesn’t, then return to sh 86,
to determine the time of arrival of the reflection from wall 4 again. In the case when the reflection from wall 4 is not determined and the maximum time passes, the maximum value for the time of arrival is set in block 88 and return to step 81, In step (block) 81 a delay is performed to determine if the considered process can be performed
for another sensor T. If it can, then the counter of the corresponding number of sensors 22 produces an increase in the number in block 80 and then turns on the next sensor T in block 74.
After that, as all sensors 22 trigger and determine signals 102 for reflections from surface 30, in block 82, an interval is determined that determines the gap, if any, for each sensor by determining interval 4 T, for signal 102 from - razhe.ni from the surface 30 and subtract from it the interval 4T ,, {For the delay line 27. This is done for each
of the gap surveyed by sensors 22 sequentially, if required,
The interval measured with the aid of the sensors 22 can be recorded in block 89 as a vice parameter, which determines the size of the gap.
However, a more precise definition of the gap SO, recorded in block 90, is obtained by multiplying the measured interval corresponding to
1915
the gap, measured at block 83 speed V acoustic wave.
The measuring currents 1 of the electrodes 7 are interrogated at block 84 or simultaneously with the operation of acoustic sensors, or sequentially. The polled values of the currents 1 are recorded in block 91 and returned to block 92 to start the program from operation 53.
The algorithm of the flowchart is performed cyclically at high speed. In this case, the vertical movement of the drilling tool 2 can be made and there is little effect on the vertical resolution of the acoustic sensors 22 for inspecting the gap. The speed of the operation algorithm may vary depending on the speed of movement of the drilling tool 2, but may be on the order of several kilohertz.
By measuring the gap, an improvement in the resolution obtained by using a number of 6 electrodes 7 can be achieved by using appropriate technology. This is accomplished by using the values of the gap, the depth and the current of the electrode, supplied to the node 52 for automatic correction of the gap (Lig. A). The latter is a program for signal processing unit 51, with which the electrode current data can be deconstructed. Such deconvolution can be applied to electrode currents for which the gap is approximately constant. The scheme of such a conversion may contain well-known chaps, and the process of deconvolution of the resolving power of the node 52 for automatic correction of the gap is carried out using the flowchart of the algorithm of operation of this node (Fig. 11). From block 93, the gap is started to change for each button electrode 7 in row 6, using the device and steps as described in relation to examining the gap using acoustic sensors 22 and using information from a calibration sensor 23 and an acoustic wave velocity sensor 24.
In block 94, a function of the system Hj (x, z) associated with the measurement of the gap is obtained. This can be accomplished by memorizing a series of digital
1863
20
values of relevant characteristics for different gap sizes, such as, for example, from zero gap to 15 mm gap at intervals of, for example, 5 mm, with different interval values being used.
In block 95 dveck spatial areas (x, z) of the wall of the drill hole
They are allocated in areas with approximately constant clearance. In block 96, these selected areas with an almost constant gap are subjected to a deconvolution process in order to eliminate
or at least mitigate the loss of resolution due to the gap and provide the rock resistance values corrected according to the gap for recording in block 97.
The proposed technical solution improves the accuracy of the survey of the gap in the borehole, which leads to an increase in the accuracy of determining the electrical resistivity of the rock in the study of the Earth's formations and makes it possible to carry out a viewhole map of the surface of the borehole wall.
