Abstract
A method for detecting electrical properties in a geological formation in a well which has within it a tubing string comprising the steps of mounting a transmitter antenna outside of the tubing string in a fixed position with respect to the geological formation, mounting a receiving antenna outside of the tubing string in a fixed position with respect to the geological formation, generating a first series of electromagnetic waves at a first time, receiving a first series of reflected electromagnetic waves in the receiver antenna, transforming the first series of reflected electromagnetic waves to form a first registration, generating a second series of electromagnetic waves at a second time, receiving a second series of reflected electromagnetic waves in the receiver antenna, transforming the second series of reflected electromagnetic waves to form a second registration, and comparing the registrations. Also disclosed is a device for accomplishing the method.
