Abstract
A method for determining electromagnetic induction properties of subsurface rock formations includes determining an eccentering angle of a well logging instrument disposed in a wellbore. The instrument includes at least one triaxial induction transmitter and at least one triaxial induction receiver. The eccentering angle is determined from symmetric cross component measurement differences. The triaxial induction measurements made from the at least one receiver are rotated to an apparent eccentering angle of zero. At least one electromagnetic induction property is determined from the rotated triaxial induction measurements.
