VERTICAL ELECTRIC DIPOLE IN A TWO CONDUCTOR REGION.

Abstract

The vertical electric fields due to a vertical electric dipole immersed in a dissipative rock medium (dielectric or conductor) situated below a highly conducting overburden (conductor) have been developed. The development is an extension of the work of Banos and Wesley for horizontal electric dipoles, considers the more recent work of Biggs and Paul. Equations are developed to show similarities and differences between the airconductor and conductor-conductor cases. Expressions are valid in the near-zone region for the conductorconductor case. For the three-medium case in practice, viz., air above overburden above rock, when the airoverburden presents a small correction to the twomedium conductor-conductor case, expressions valid for the far-zone are given.
