IntroductionElectrical conductivity of a geological formation may vary in different directions depending on the formation's properties. This type of directional property of conductivity gives rise to electrical anisotropy (Maillet, 1947). Ignoring the electrical anisotropy of a geological formation or assuming that the formation is isotropic may yield to a misleading interpretation (Nguyen et al., 2007;Wiese et al., 2009;Greenhalgh et al., 2010).Electrical anisotropy detection in the field can be determined by using a square array, since the square array is more sensitive to electrical anisotropy in a geological formation than the most commonly used Schlumberger
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
