On: “Theory of microwave dielectric constant logging using the electromagnetic wave propagation method,” by R. Freedman and J. Vogiatzis (GEOPHYSICS, May, 1979, p. 969–986).

Abstract

In the interesting paper by Freedman and Vogiatzis, the Schlumberger EPT dielectric well logging method is discussed. The authors pay particular attention to the analysis of the formation traveltime and calculate, for several realistic sources, the corrections to the values of the plane wave model used by Schlumberger.
