    WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 APPARATUS AND METHODS OF SKIN EFFECT CORRECTION Technical Field The present invention relates generally to apparatus for making 5 measurements related to oil and gas exploration. Background In drilling wells for oil and gas exploration, understanding the structure and properties of the associated geological formation provides information to aid 10 such exploration. Measurements in a borehole are typically performed to attain this understanding. However, the environment in which the drilling tools operate is at significant distances below the surface and measurements to manage operation of such equipment are made at these locations. Logging is the process of making measurements via sensors located 15 downhole, which can provide valuable information regarding the formation characteristics. For example, induction logging can utilize electromagnetic signals that can be used to make measurements. As an electromagnetic field penetrates into a conductive medium, the electromagnetic field can experience a loss in amplitude and change in phase. This loss and change in phase can be 20 referred to as the skin effect. In an induction log, the skin effect causes a reduction of both of the R-phase (in-phase) and the X-signal (out-of-phase) signal at a receiver of the induction tool. Accurate correction of skin effect plays an important role in wireline induction log data processing. For skin-effect correction (SEC), multi-frequency: 25 SEC methods using only R-signal data and single-frequency SEC methods using both R-signal and X-signal data are widely used in the logging industry. The multi-frequency SEC methods typically do not work very well if only one frequency signal is available. An R-signal is a resistive signal that is a portion of an alternating signal at a receiver of an induction logging tool such that the 30 resistive signal is in phase with the transmitter current of the induction logging tool. The R-signal depends on formation conductivity, where a signal out-of phase with the transmitter current is a reactive signal, referred to as an X-signal. The X-signal also depends on formation conductivity, in a manner different from the R-signal. C11 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 Examples of induction logging systems that can operate at multiple frequencies include Halliburton's Hostile Array Compensated Resistivity Tool (HACRtTM) logging system and Array Compensated Resistivity Tool (ACRtTM) logging system. HACRtTM has an asymmetric design that consists of a single 5 transmitter operating at three frequencies and six receiver antennas with spacing from 6 to 80 inches. ACRtTM incorporates a transmitter that operates at three frequencies simultaneously with six sub-asymmetrical arrays of antennas strategically spaced from 6 to 80 inches from the transmitter. Further, the usefulness of such measurements may be related to the precision or quality of the 10 information derived from such measurements.

These embodiments are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice these and other 30 embodiments. Other embodiments may be utilized, and structural, logical, and electrical changes may be made to these embodiments. The various embodiments are not necessarily mutually exclusive, as some embodiments can be combined with one or more other embodiments to form new embodiments. 3 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 The following detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limiting sense. In various embodiments, a skin-effect correction process can be applied that only uses a single-frequency R-signal measurement. The correction can be 5 based on a pre-calculated correction coefficient library. The, SEC results of such a process are comparable to the standard multi-frequency skin-effect correction. A pre-calculated correction coefficient library for the single-frequency SEC can also be applied to a multi-frequency skin-effect correction. In addition, an embodiment of a SEC process using a single-frequency R-signal measurement 10 can be applied whenever the quality of the data from one or more frequencies normally used in the multi-frequency method is reliable. Figure 1 shows a block diagram of an example embodiment of a system 100 having a data processing unit 120 structured to calculate an apparent conductivity having a skin-effect correction and a database 125 arranged to store 15 and provide access to weight coefficients for use with the data processing unit 120. The data processing unit 120 can include a number of interfaces 122. One of the interfaces 122 can be used to output information from the data processing unit 120. One of the interfaces 122 can be arranged to collect R-signal data from a receiver of a tool 105. The interfaces 122 can be structured as a single unit to 20 collect data and to output data. The R-signal data can correspond to the tool 105 operated at a single frequency over a length of a borehole 102. Each of the weight coefficients from the database 125 to be used with the data processing unit 120 can correspond to a distance in the length over which the R-signal data is collected. The tool 105 can be structured as an induction logging tool. The 25 data processing unit 120 can be structured to be operable to conduct a convolution filtering of conductivity values and the weight coefficients, where the conductivity values can be derived from the R-signal measurement data. System 100 can include a tool 105 having an arrangement of sensors 111-1, 111-2 . . . 111-(N-1), 111-N along a longitudinal axis 117 of tool 30 structure 103. With sensors 111-1, 111-2 ... 111-(N-1), 111-N along a longitudinal axis 117, the sensors 111-1, 111-2 ... 111-(N-1), 111-N can have an axis substantially parallel with the longitudinal axis 117. Each sensor 111-1, 111-2 ... 11 1-(N-1), 111 -N can be utilized as a transmitting sensor or a 4 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 receiving sensor under the control of a control unit 115 to operate in borehole 102. At least two sensors, for example 11 1-J and 111-K, of the sensors 111-1, 111-2 . . . 111 -(N- 1), 111-N can be structured to collect R-signal data, where one or two of these sensors 111 -J and 111-K operates as a receiver and the other one 5 of these sensors 111 -J and 111-K operates as a transmitter associated with the receiver. The two sensors 111 -J and 111-K can operate together arranged to collect logging data such that the R-signal data is operably provided to one of the interfaces 122. Sensors 11 1-J and 111-K can be arranged with one or more additional receivers of the sensors 111-1, 111-2 ... 111 -(N-1), 111-N, to collect 10 logging data such that the R-signal data is operably provided to one of the interfaces 122, where these receivers are separated from the transmitter, for example the sensor 111 -J, by different distances. The tool 105 can include the control unit 115 operable to manage generation of signals from the sensor I 11-J as a transmitter and collection of 15 received signals at the receiver sensor 111-K and other additional receivers of the sensors 111-1, 111-2 ... 111-(N-1), and 111-N. The control unit 115 can be structured to control the receiver sensor 111-K and the transmitter sensor 111 -J to provide signals to the data processing unit 120, where the data processing unit 120 can be structured to use operatively only R-signal data from single 20 frequency R-signal measurements to generate the skin-effect correction. The control unit 115 can be structured to control the receiver sensor 111-K and the transmitter sensor 111 -J to operate at a plurality of operating frequencies and provide signals to the data processing unit 120, where the data processing unit 120 can be structured to operatively select a mode of operation from a single 25 frequency mode or a multiple frequencies mode. The data processing unit 120 can be structured to operatively generate the weight coefficients for use in skin-effect correction procedures and store the weight coefficients in the database 125. Generating weight coefficients and storing the weight coefficients in the database 125 can be conducted prior to 30 making R-signal measurements of a formation property such as conductivity. The weight coefficients can be based on geometrical factors of resistivity logging tools. The geometrical factors can be based on Doll's vertical geometrical factors and Born's vertical geometric factors. The data processing 5 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 unit 120 can be structured to generate the weight coefficients by operatively using a least squares procedure. The database 125 can include a pre-calculated correction coefficient library to generate the skin-effect correction. The weights can be used by the data processing unit 120 structured to operatively calculate 5 apparent conductivity having the skin-effect correction by the generation of the apparent conductivity after the skin-effect correction as defined by O~SEC (Z) WZ OZ-R Z JR Z where aR(Z-Zj) is the apparent conductivity derived from R-signal measurement data at z-Z;, and w(Z;) is a weight coefficient at distance Z;. 10 Figure 2 shows features of an example embodiment of a method that provides skin-effect correction to a conductivity measurement. The method may include other features from the teaching provided herein. At 210, R-signal data is collected from receivers of an induction logging tool. The R-signal data can correspond to the induction logging tool operating at a single frequency or 15 multiple frequencies over a logging section of a borehole. A skin-effect correction may be conducted such that the skin-effect correction procedure only uses R-signal data from single-frequency R-signal measurements. At 220, weight coefficients are retrieved from a database. Each of the weight coefficients can correspond to a distance in a depth window along the length of 20 the borehole. At 230, a skin-effect correction apparent conductivity having a skin effect correction can be calculated by conducting a convolution filtering of conductivity values and the weight coefficients, where the apparent conductivity values can be derived from the R-signal data. A skin-effect correction can be 25 based on a pre-calculated correction coefficient library. Calculating the apparent conductivity having the skin-effect correction can include generating the apparent conductivity after the skin-effect correction as defined by SEC Wj R where CR (Z-Zj) is apparent conductivity derived from R-signal data at z-zj, and w 30 (Z;) is a weight coefficient at distance z;. In an embodiment, features of a method that provides skin-effect correction to a conductivity measurement can include generating the weight coefficients and storing the weight coefficients in the 6 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 database prior to collecting the R-signal data of the conductivity measurement. Generating the weight coefficients can include generating the weight coefficients from geometrical factors. Generating the weight coefficients can include generating the weight coefficients from processing a relationship given by 5 w (z)g (z-z)=g"(z) where w(z) is a weight coefficient at distance z, gDv(z) is a Doll vertical geometrical factor, and gBv (z-z;) is a real part of a Born vertical geometric factor at z-z;. Processing the relationship can include using a least squares method. At 240, the apparent conductivity can be output. The apparent conductivity can be 10 output to a processing unit or an application of a processing unit that processes data for use in oil or gas drilling operations or formation evaluations. The operations may be land based or water based operations. Methods that can provide skin-effect correction to a conductivity measurement can be implemented in a system comprising: a tool having a 15 transmitter sensor and a receiver sensor, the transmitter sensor and the receiver sensor set apart from each other by a separation distance; a control unit operable to manage generation of transmission signals from the transmitter sensor and collection of received signals at the receiver sensor, each received signal based on one of the transmission signals; and a data processing unit, wherein the tool, 20 the control unit, and the data processing unit are configured to perform operations of methods as discussed herein. Skin-effect correction procedures and associated apparatus can be arranged to physically implement adaptations to geometrical factors (or response functions) of induction logging tools. In induction log data processing, the 25 response functions that produce the log can be used. However, with the exact response functions not available for induction tools, geometrical factors can be used as approximations of the response functions. The response function describes the input-output relationship of a system. The response function of an induction logging tool may provide an analytical relationship between the 30 conductivity in a formation to the measured apparent conductivity in a receiver of an induction logging tool. Known geometrical factor theories include the Doll geometrical factor theory and the Born geometrical factor theory. Embodiments of apparatus and processes as taught herein can make use of Doll geometrical 7 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 factors and Born geometrical factors. From Doll geometrical factor theory in induction logging, the real apparent conductivity for an induction logging tool in a two-dimensional (2D) borehole-formation model can be determined by 5 a. = ffgD (z z, p)- c(z', pdpdz' (1) where aD(z) is the Doll apparent conductivity without the skin effect, gD (z - z', p) is the Doll 's 2D unit geometrical factor, a7(z', p) is the true formation conductivity, and z is the logging depth in a borehole. Assuming that the earth formation is a vertical one-dimensional (1 D) formation model, one can let 10 a;(z',p) = ao(z). Then, equation (1) reduces to a, (z)= fgr (z - z')- a(z')dz', (2) where gD v(z - z') is the Doll 's vertical geometrical factor (VGF)/response function. Here, gDy(z - z) is only a function of geometrical parameters, for example, position and logging tool spacing. 15 Figure 3 shows Doll VGFs for six transmitter-receiver sub-arrays of ACRt/HACRt tool. A transmitter-receiver sub-array can be referenced by the spacing distance between the transmitter and the receiver of the sub-array. For example, an induction tool may include one transmitter separated from six different receivers at six different spacing distances. In Figure 3, the curve 351 20 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 80 inches. The curve 352 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 50 inches. The curve 353 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 29 inches. The curve 354 is for a sub-array having a transmitter - receiver separation of 17 inches. The curve 356 is for a sub-array having a transmitter 25 receiver separation of 9.6 inches. The curve 357 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 6 inches. In a homogeneous medium, ar is constant and fgDy(z - z') = 1, in which case equation (2) yields aD(z) = al. From the Born electromagnetic (EM) approximation theory, the apparent conductivity for the same formation model as 30 the above is expressed as 8 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 R(Z) fg (z -z' P)- a,(z', pdpdz' , (3) = JgBV (Z - Z') a 1 (z')dz' Here, CYR(Z) is the R-signal apparent conductivity including the skin effect, gB (z z', p) is the real part of the Born unit geometric factor, and gBV (z-z') is the real part of the Born VGF. Both gB(z-z',p) and gBy(z-z') are not only functions of 5 geometric parameters, but are also functions of the background formation conductivity and frequency. Figures 4-6 show Born VGFs of ACRt/HACRt tool at frequencies of 12 kHz, 36 kHz, and 72 kHz, respectively, with a background formation conductivity of 1 S/m. In Figure 4, the curve 451 is for a sub-array having a 10 transmitter-receiver separation of 80 inches. The curve 452 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 50 inches. The curve 453 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 29 inches. The curve 454 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 17 inches. The curve 456 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 9.6 inches. The 15 curve 457 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 6 inches. In Figure 5, the curve 551 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 80 inches. The curve 552 is for a sub-array having a transmitter receiver separation of 50 inches. The curve 553 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 29 inches. The curve 554 is for a sub-array 20 having a transmitter-receiver separation of 17 inches. The curve 556 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 9.6 inches. The curve 557 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 6 inches. In Figure 6, the curve 651 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 80 inches. The curve 652 is for a sub-array having a transmitter 25 receiver separation of 50 inches. The curve 653 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 29 inches. The curve 654 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 17 inches. The curve 656 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 9.6 inches. The curve 657 is for a sub-array having a transmitter-receiver separation of 6 inches. From 30 Figures 3-6, the larger differences between the Doll VGFs and the Born VGFs occur at higher frequencies. 9 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 The apparent conductivity after the skin-effect correction can be expressed in terms of a convolution as USEC(Z)-Zw )CYR(ZzJ), (4) where tJSEC(z) is the apparent conductivity after the SEC, which can be referred 5 to as SEC apparent conductivity. The terms w(zj) are the weight coefficients of the convolution filter. The target for the GsEc(z) is YD(Z) of equation (1). After substituting equation (3) into equation (4), equation (4) can be rewritten as GSEC (Z) 1 4 Zj fBV(Z (')dz' (5) 10 or USEC(Z) = w (Z) -BV (z - z'-z -a 1 (z')dz'. (6) For asEc(z) GD(z), by the comparison between equations (2) and (6) the following equation can be obtained w(zJ g, (Z - z) = g, (Z) (7) 15 Hence, with the coefficients w(z;) known, equation (4) can be used to conduct the skin-effect correction for induction logging data. It can be seen that the SEC for induction logging data is equivalent to the convolution filtering based on a correction coefficient library. In order to determine the filter coefficients w(z;), equation (7) can be 20 solved by using an optimization algorithm, such as the least-square method. As a result of equation (7) the correction filter coefficients w(z;) can be pre calculated, and they can be assembled into a correction table/library for different conductivity values, which can be stored in a memory device or a database. In a homogeneous medium, the constraint for w(z) from equation (4) is given by 25 w = , (8) where GR is the R-signal apparent conductivity including the skin effect in homogeneous media with true conductivity cl. Figures 7-9 show the results of comparison of true conductivity and R signal apparent conductivity for ACRt/HACRt tool operating at 12 kHz, 36 kHz, 10 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 and 72 kHz, respectively, in homogeneous formations. These curves demonstrate that the R-signal apparent conductivity deviates from the true conductivity at higher conductivities. In addition, these curves demonstrate that the R-signal apparent conductivity deviates less from the true conductivity for 5 measurements using shorter transmitter to receiver spacings. In order to test the SEC process using single-frequency R-signal measurements, computed ACRt/HACRt logs were used for demonstrating the performance of embodiments of the SEC method in oil-base mud (OBM) and water-base mud (WBM) wells.

The model includes a vertical borehole 1002 and a chirp formation 1004. In this example model, the borehole diameter 1003 is 8.5 inches with zero eccentricity and mud resistivity, Rm; and the chirp formation is a 21-layer chirp 5 formation with bed resistivity represented by Rt. A chirp formation is a model formation that contains a series of layers of varying thickness or varying bed resistivities. The model shown in Figure 10 uses an alternating arrangement of a large bed resistivity (Rt=1000 ohm-m) and a small bed resistivity (Rt=10 ohm m). Other models can include a series of layers of varying thickness, starting 10 with the thickest layer and ending with the thinnest layer for example. A tool 1005, such as an ACRt/HACRt tool, can be moved to the borehole center, which can be set as the reference, 0, such that moving further into the borehole 1002 from the reference along the z-axis is in the positive direction. The direction from the reference to the surface is in the negative z direction. 15 Simulations of two modeled log examples were made. The first modeled log example is in an OBM well and the second is a WBM well. Figures 11-13 show apparent conductivity as a function of depth for the model of Figure 10 with mud resistivity Rm = 1000 ohm-i in the OBM well and with a simulated ACRt/HACRt tool operating at 12 kHz, 36 kHz. and 72 kHz, respectively, for 20 these logs.

For comparison purposes, Figure 15 shows SEC logs of the OBM well with the chirp formation of Figure 10, obtained with the three-frequency SEC method at frequencies of 12 kHz, 36 20 kHz, and 72 kHz for the simulated ACRt/HACRt tool. Due to the large resistivity contrast (1000/10) between the bed and shoulder resistivity, all array responses include shoulder effects, especially for long arrays in high resistivity bed sections. With respect to an induction measurement, a shoulder effect is the influence on the induction measurement of a layer of interest by the adjacent 25 layer above or below the layer being measured. From the comparison of Figures 14 and 15, good agreement between the single frequency method and multiple frequency method is attained.

The SEC process can be directly derived from inhomogeneous-media assumption. SEC methods based on correction tables as discussed herein can provide various enhancements to SEC methods such as single-frequency SEC procedures using both a R-signal and a X-signal and 10 multi-frequency SEC procedures. For example, using induction data at only one frequency may reduce complexity associated with conventional multi-frequency SEC methods. A SEC procedure based on correction tables can be used with multi-frequency techniques in cases where, due to poor quality data, only one frequency data is available. As shown by the examples provided herein, SEC 15 logs from a SEC algorithm based on correction tables provide good results compared to the SEC logs from a three-frequency correction method. In comparison with conventional methods, few parameters affecting the SEC results are determined by personal experience. In addition, a SEC process that only uses the R-signal induction data does not depend on X-signal. 20 Various components of a system operable to calculate an apparent conductivity having a skin-effect correction by conducting a convolution filtering of conductivity values and weight coefficients, where the conductivity values can be derived from R-signal data and the weight coefficients selected as pre-determined values, as described herein or in a similar manner, can be 25 realized in combinations of hardware and software based implementations. These implementations may include a machine-readable storage device having machine-executable instructions, such as a computer-readable storage device having computer-executable instructions, to collect R-signal data from a receiver of an induction logging tool, the R-signal data corresponding to the induction 30 logging tool operating at a single frequency over a length of a borehole; retrieve weight coefficients from a database, each of the weight coefficients corresponding to a distance in the length; calculate an apparent conductivity having a skin-effect correction by conducting a convolution filtering of 15 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 conductivity values and the weight coefficients, the conductivity values derived from the R-signal data; and output the apparent conductivity. The instructions can include instructions to operate a tool having one or more transmitters and one or more receivers to provide data to a data processing unit in accordance 5 with the teachings herein. Further, a machine-readable storage device, herein, is a physical device that stores data represented by physical structure within the device. Examples of machine-readable storage devices include, but are not limited to, read only memory (ROM), random access memory (RAM), a magnetic disk storage device, an optical storage device, a flash memory, and 10 other electronic, magnetic, and/or optical memory devices. Figure 18 depicts a block diagram of features of an example embodiment of a system 1800 operable to calculate an apparent conductivity having a skin effect correction by conducting a convolution filtering of conductivity values and weight coefficients, where the conductivity values can be derived from R 15 signal data and the weight coefficients selected as pre-determined values, as described herein or in a similar manner.

A data processing unit 1820, structured to calculate an 30 apparent conductivity having a skin-effect correction and operable to conduct a convolution filtering of conductivity values and the weight coefficients, where the conductivity values can be derived from the measured R-signal data, can be implemented as a single unit or distributed among the components of the system 16 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 1800 including electronic apparatus 1865. The controller 1825 and the memory 1830 can operate to control activation of the transmitter sensors 1812 and selection of the receiver sensors 1814 in the tool 1805 and to manage processing schemes in accordance with measurement procedures and signal processing as 5 described herein. The data processing unit 1820 and other components of the system 1800 can be configured, for example, to operate similar to or identical to the components discussed herein or similar to or identical to any of methods discussed herein. The communications unit 1835 can include downhole communications 10 for appropriately located sensors in a drilling operation. Such downhole communications can include a telemetry system. The communications unit 1835 may use combinations of wired communication technologies and wireless technologies at frequencies that do not interfere with on-going measurements.

The bus 1827 can be realized using a number of different communication mediums that allows for the distribution of components of the system 1800. Use of the bus 1827 can be 20 regulated by the controller 1825. In various embodiments, peripheral devices 1845 can include additional storage memory and other control devices that may operate in conjunction with the controller 1825 and the memory 1830. In an embodiment, the controller 1825 can be realized as a processor or a group of processors that may operate 25 independently depending on an assigned function. The system 1800 can include display unit(s) 1855 as a distributed component on the surface at a drilling operation, which can be used with instructions stored in the memory 1830 to implement a user interface to monitor the operation of the tool 1805 or components distributed within the system 1800. 30 The user interface may be used to input parameter values for thresholds such that the system 1800 can operate autonomously substantially without user intervention. The user interface can also provide for manual override and change of control of the system 1800 to a user. Such a user interface can be 17 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 operated in conjunction with the communications unit 1835 and the bus 1827. Figure 19 depicts an embodiment of a system 1900 at a drilling site, where the system 1900 includes a tool 1905 having one or more transmitters and one or more receivers arranged to provide R-signal data of an induction logging 5 tool, where the R-signal data corresponds to the induction logging tool operating at a single frequency over a length of a borehole, and having a data processing unit arranged to calculate an apparent conductivity having a skin-effect correction by conducting a convolution filtering of conductivity values and weight coefficients, the conductivity values derived from the R-signal data and 10 the weight coefficients retrieved from a database. The tool 1905 can be distributed among the components of system 1900. The tool 1905 can be realized in a similar or identical manner to arrangements of transmitters, receivers, and data processing units discussed herein. The tool 1905 can be structured and fabricated in accordance with various embodiments as taught 15 herein with respect to transmitters, receivers, and data processing units to perform skin-effect correction to measured formation characteristics. The system 1900 can include a drilling rig 1902 located at a surface 1904 of a well 1906 and a string of drill pipes, that is, the drill string 1908, connected together so as to form a drilling string that is lowered through a rotary table 1907 20 into a wellbore or borehole 1912. The drilling rig 1902 can provide support for the drill string 1908. The drill string 1908 can operate to penetrate the rotary table 1907 for drilling the borehole 1912 through subsurface formations 1914. The drill string 1908 can include drill pipe 1918 and a bottom hole assembly 1920 located at the lower portion of the drill pipe 1918. 25 The bottom hole assembly 1920 can include a drill collar 1915, the tool 1905 attached to the drill collar 1915, and a drill bit 1926. The drill bit 1926 can operate to create the borehole 1912 by penetrating the surface 1904 and the subsurface formations 1914. The tool 1905 can be structured for an implementation in the borehole 1912 as a MWD system such as a LWD system. 30 The housing containing the tool 1905 can include electronics to activate one or more transmitters of the tool 1905 and collect responses from one or more receivers of the tool 1905. Such electronics can include a data unit to provide formation characteristics corrected for skin effect to the surface over a standard 18 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 communication mechanism for operating a well. Alternatively, electronics can include a communications interface to provide signals output by receivers of the tool 1905 to the surface over a standard communication mechanism for operating a well, where these output signals can be analyzed at a processing unit at the 5 surface to provide formation characteristics corrected for skin effect. During drilling operations, the drill string 1908 can be rotated by the rotary table 1907. In addition to, or alternatively, the bottom hole assembly 1920 can also be rotated by a motor (e.g., a mud motor) that is located downhole. The drill collars 1915 can be used to add weight to the drill bit 1926. The drill 10 collars 1915 also can stiffen the bottom hole assembly 1920 to allow the bottom hole assembly 1920 to transfer the added weight to the drill bit 1926, and in turn, assist the drill bit 1926 in penetrating the surface 1904 and subsurface formations 1914. During drilling operations, a mud pump 1932 can pump drilling fluid 15 (sometimes known by those of skill in the art as "drilling mud") from a mud pit 1934 through a hose 1936 into the drill pipe 1918 and down to the drill bit 1926. The drilling fluid can flow out from the drill bit 1926 and be returned to the surface 1904 through an annular area 1940 between the drill pipe 1918 and the sides of the borehole 1912. The drilling fluid may then be returned to the mud 20 pit 1934, where such fluid is filtered. In some embodiments, the drilling fluid can be used to cool the drill bit 1926, as well as to provide lubrication for the drill bit 1926 during drilling operations. Additionally, the drilling fluid may be used to remove subsurface formation 1914 cuttings created by operating the drill bit 1926. 25 In various embodiments, the tool 1905 may be included in a tool body 1970 coupled to a logging cable 1974 such as, for example, for wireline applications. The tool body 1970 containing the tool 1905 can include electronics to activate one or more transmitters of the tool 1905 and collect responses from one or more receivers of the tool 1905. Such electronics can 30 include a data unit to provide formation characteristics corrected for skin effect to the surface over a standard communication mechanism for operating a well. Alternatively, electronics can include a communications interface to provide signals output by receivers of the tool 1905 to the surface over a standard 19 WO 2013/122590 PCT/US2012/025477 communication mechanism for operating a well, where these output signals can be analyzed at a processing unit at the surface to provide formation characteristics corrected for skin effect. The logging cable 1974 may be realized as a wireline (multiple power and communication lines), a mono-cable (a single 5 conductor), and/or a slick-line (no conductors for power or communications), or other appropriate structure for use in the bore hole 1912.
