Abstract

The testing problems for The Electromagnetic Wave Resistivity Logging-While-Drilling Instrument in the calibrating tank are studied. The calibrating tank is a testing and calibrating device in which the water solution resistivity can modulate, wherein the calibrating barrel diameter of 3 meters, 4 meters high. Testing The Electromagnetic Wave Resistivity Logging-While-Drilling Instrument in the device is simulated and computed by the 3-D numerical simulation software MAXWELL, the testing result and the result calculated by MAXWELL are compared and we can find that the error between them is small. The testing charts for The Electromagnetic Wave Resistivity Logging-While-Drilling Instrument in calibrating tank are set up. These charts can guide the instruments testing.
