Abstract

Multicomponent measurements made in a cross-bedded earth formation are processed to give one or more equivalent TI models. Resistivity information about the cross-bedding is obtained from one of the TI models and a measured cross-bedding angle. Resistivity information about the cross-bedding may also be obtained using a combination of two or more of the equivalent TI models.
