Abstract
A nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus includes a magnet assembly, a transmitting antenna configured to generate an oscillating magnetic field in a sensitive volume within an earth formation, and one or more receiving antennas configured to detect a nuclear magnetic resonance signal originating in the sensitive volume. The one or more receiving antennas are arranged relative so that the one or more receiving antennas are inductively decoupled from the transmitting antenna, a first portion of the surface area of the one or more receiving antennas overlapping a first region of the transmitting antenna in which a magnetic flux of the transmitting antenna is in a first direction, and a second portion of the surface area of the one or more receiver antennas overlapping a second region of the transmitting antenna in which the magnetic flux is in a second direction predominantly opposed to the first direction.
