Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Techniques for determining formation characteristics use measurements of dielectric permittivity at a number of frequencies. Determined characteristics include the vertical and horizontal formation dielectric constant and conductivity the formation water conductivity, the water saturation the cementation and the saturation exponents. In laminated formations these profiles can be determined for each lamina. Also formation dielectric properties are used in determination of the rock type.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 7, 2006 and granted April 5, 2016. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended September 7, 2026.
- Certificates of supplementary protection extend only drug patents, and it isn't classified as one.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
