Background
Induction logging tools are logging tools that measure formation resistivity using the principle of electromagnetic induction. After the transmitting coil generates an alternating electromagnetic field in a stratum medium, an induced current can be generated in the stratum unit ring with the shaft as the axis, and the magnitude of the induced current is in direct proportion to the conductivity of the stratum unit ring. The electromagnetic fields generated by these current loops are called secondary fields. The secondary field can generate induced electromotive force in the receiving coil, and the size of the induced electromotive force reflects the conductivity of the stratum, so that the resistivity of the stratum can be indirectly measured by measuring the induced electromotive force caused by the secondary field in the receiving coil.
The underground part of the array induction logging instrument consists of three parts, namely an electronic instrument short section, a coil system and a transmitting short section, wherein the coil system is a key component of the array induction instrument. The array induction logging instrument coil system is an array coil system formed by a plurality of sub-arrays. Each subarray consists of a transmitting coil and two receiving coils; the receiving coil close to the transmitting coil is a compensation receiving coil, and the receiving coil far away from the transmitting coil is a main receiving coil. The compensation receiving coil and the main receiving coil are connected in series but opposite in winding direction, and form a mutual inductance balanced three-coil system sub-array with the transmitting coil. By reasonably selecting the distance between the main receiving coil and the compensation receiving coil and the distance between the transmitting coil and the receiving coil, the array coil system with different radial detection depths, different longitudinal resolutions and balanced mutual inductance can be obtained.
The conventional array induction logging tool coil system is composed of 7 sub-arrays, such as the array induction logging coil system (200910235768.6) for measuring the formation resistivity, which is disclosed in the invention patent, has the disadvantage that the whole structure is long, thereby having certain structural risks. Therefore, the improved design of the coil system on the premise of ensuring the accuracy of the measurement result is a good structure optimization scheme. Meanwhile, convenience can be brought to production, installation, transportation and logging operation of the instrument.

Aiming at the defects in the prior art, the invention aims to provide a method for measuring the resistivity of a stratum by using a six-subarray coil system, which measures the conductivity of the stratum by reducing one subarray on an original induction logging instrument with seven subarrays, and simultaneously adopts a scientific algorithm aiming at the structure of the six subarray coil systems to ensure that an accurate measurement result can be obtained after a pair of coils is reduced, so that the structural risk caused by the overlong length of the traditional array induction coil system is solved.
The technical purpose of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme:

The conventional seven-subarray coil system is a six-subarray coil system except for the subarray 6A6B farthest away from the transmitting coil.
The relation linked list is obtained by the following method: obtaining a subarray original apparent conductivity response curve along with the change of the stratum conductivity through the calculation of a traditional seven-subarray coil system, calculating an original apparent conductivity ratio of the subarray 6A6B to 5A5B, and drawing a relation chain table of the original apparent conductivity of the subarray 5A5B and the original apparent conductivity ratio of the adjacent subarray 6A6B to the subarray 5A 5B.
The calculation formula of the apparent conductivity of the subarray is as follows:

The technical solutions of the present invention will be described clearly and completely with reference to specific embodiments of the present invention, and it should be understood that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The invention provides a novel six-subarray coil system aiming at the defects of the traditional array induction coil system structure, and the novel six-subarray coil system has a unique coil system structure. The coil is made up of 6 sub-arrays, which share a single transmit coil. All receiving coils are axially arranged on one side of the receiving coil, and the coil system in the form is simple in structure and easy to manufacture and debug; compared with 7 sub-arrays of the traditional coil, the coil system structure has the advantages that each sub-array shares one transmitting coil, so that on the basis of effectively shortening the length of the instrument, one sub-array is further reduced, namely a pair of receiving coils are reduced, the length of the instrument is further shortened, the structural performance of the system is greatly optimized, the structure of the whole instrument is compact, and the operation is convenient; in addition, because the coil system adopts the reinforced metal mandrel, the overall mechanical performance of the instrument is greatly improved, and a reliable path is provided for the through wire, so that the through wire can be conveniently combined with other instruments for logging, and the use flexibility of the instrument is greatly improved. Meanwhile, a scientific algorithm aiming at a new coil system structure is adopted, so that accurate measurement results can be obtained after a pair of coils is reduced.
As shown in fig. 1, the conventional coil system structure is composed of 7 sub-arrays, each of which is composed of one transmitting coil and two receiving coils. They share a transmitter coil, and all receiver coils are arranged on one side of the receiver coil along the axial direction, and can be numbered as 0A0B, 1A1B, 2A2B, 3A3B, 4A4B, 5A5B and 6A6B according to the figure, wherein the 6A6B coil group is composed of two coils, namely A6A coil and A6B coil. The 6A coil and the 6B coil are separated by the glass fiber reinforced plastic sleeve, and the schematic diagrams can be used for understanding that the 6A coil and the 6B coil are connected to form a large total size, so that the installation difficulty and the transportation difficulty are improved to a certain extent, the integral structure of the instrument is overlong, and the system risk is increased. Therefore, if the coil system can be perfected on the basis of not influencing the measurement result, the improvement of the performance of the whole structure is strongly necessary. As shown in fig. 2, the whole coil system is composed of 6 sub-arrays, compared with the original coil system, a pair of coils, namely 6A and 6B, and a glass fiber reinforced plastic sleeve are reduced, the length is shortened by nearly one meter, the overall size is greatly shortened, and the tensile and compressive indexes of the instrument are greatly improved.
On the basis of optimizing the instrument structure, a scientific processing algorithm aiming at the novel coil system measurement data is adopted, and the acquisition and the accuracy of the apparent conductivity information of 7 sub-arrays of the traditional coil system are ensured. The array induction logging can realize formation information measurement under various frequencies and various source distances, and a novel coil system measurement data processing method is specifically described by taking 26.256KHz working frequency as an example. Constant alternating current is applied to the transmitting coil, and different receiving coils are utilized to receive the secondary induction field of the stratum so as to generate induced electromotive force, wherein the signal is an original measuring signal. In order to not lose the measurement information of the longest source distance of the original coil system, the longest source distance measurement signal of the novel coil system is compensated by adopting a mathematical method to obtain the 7 th measurement signal of the longest source distance sub array of the original coil system.
The array induction subarray consists of a transmitting coil and two receiving coils and is divided into two double-coil systems,
respectively representing the distances between the transmitting coils and the receiving coils and between the transmitting coils and the shielding coils of different sub-arrays.

Through the above-mentioned subarray three-coil system apparent conductivity calculation formula, the stratum conductivity value range is 0.001-10.0S/m, 7 subarray original apparent conductivity response curves along with stratum conductivity change curves are obtained by calculation, as shown in fig. 3, on the basis, subarray 6A6B and subarray 6A6 are further calculatedThe original apparent conductivity ratio of the subarray 5A5B is obtained as a linked list of the relationship between the original apparent conductivity of the subarray 5A5B and the original apparent conductivity ratio of the adjacent subarray 6A6B and the subarray 5A5B, as shown in fig. 4, the relationship is (σ) in paira(5),σa(6)/σa(5)). Under the novel six-subarray coil system structure, the original apparent conductivity information of the subarray 6A6B cannot be directly measured, and by using a relationship linked list, the corresponding abscissa is found in fig. 4 by using the measured original apparent conductivity information of the subarray 5A5B, taking 1.0S/m as an example, so that the ordinate value corresponding to the abscissa is 0.44, namely, the ordinate value is a conversion coefficient, and therefore, the original conductivity information of the subarray 6A6B can be multiplied by the coefficient by the original conductivity of the subarray 5 A5B.
σa(6)=(array(6)/array(5))*σa(5)
On the basis of the novel six-array coil system probe structure, the data relation linked list conversion method is adopted, and the acquisition and accuracy of the apparent conductivity information of the 7 th sub-array of the traditional coil system structure are ensured.
