Types of downhole image tools
- Electrical Resistivity: FMS (Formation MicroScanner),
FMI (Formation MicroImager),
RAB (Resistivity-At-Bit), etc
- Ultrasonic: UBI (Ultrasonic Borehole Imager),
BHTV (BoreHole TeleViewer), etc
- Video.

Downhole video
Clear drilling fluid is required
for downhole video - not often
the case.

FMS Processing
Processing is required to convert the 64 electrical current traces recorded
into a color-scale resistivity image.
1. Speed correction. For "stick and slip" - irregular tool motion.
2. Equalization. Between button electrodes and between pads.
3. Button correction. ., "dead buttons" the defective trace is replaced
by traces from adjacent good buttons.
4. EMEX voltage correction. During l
