Abstract:Steel casings and liners in boreholes produce magnetic fields which can be observed in adjacent boreholes and on the earth's surface. In this application, we attempted to measure the perturbation to the magnetic declination caused by a steel liner at depth. At one site the presence of the liner was clearly revealed by the horizontal and vertical magnetic fields in boreholes located 20 m and 25 m from the hole containing the liner. However, reproducibility of the declination among subsequent runs was never bett… Show more
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.
