Abstract: A method for measuring the resistivity of geologic formations is described. An electromagnetic field may be generated using at least one stationary long-range transmitter. The frequency of the electromagnetic field may be between and/or including the ULF/ELF range. At least one component of the electromagnetic field may be measured by land, marine, submarine, and/or airborne receiver. A conductivity distribution may be determined based on the at least one measured component. The determined conductivity distribution may be correlated with geological formations and/or hydrocarbon deposits.

Abstract: A method for measuring the resistivity of sea-bed formations is described. An electromagnetic field is generated using at least one stationary long-range transmitter. The frequency of the electromagnetic field is between and/or including the ULF/ELF range. At least one component of the electromagnetic field is measured. A conductivity distribution is determined based on the at least one measured component. The determined conductivity distribution is correlated with geological formations and/or hydrocarbon deposits.
