Abstract
A method for logging subsurface formations penetrated by a wellbore include measuring electromagnetic properties of the formations using electromagnetic fields having a magnetic dipole axis parallel to a logging tool axis Electromagnetic properties of the formations are also measured using electromagnetic fields having a magnetic dipole axis oblique to the logging tool axis. A horizontal resistivity of the formations is determined from the parallel dipole axis measurements. A vertical resistivity, formation layer boundaries and a dip angle of the formations are determined from the oblique dipole axis measurements.
