Dielectric Log, Dielectric Propagation Log

A dielectric log measures the high frequency (on the order of 25 MHz) dielectric properties of the formation. The log usually includes two curves: the relative dielectric permittivity, symbolized by epsilon which is unit less, and the resistivity in ohm-m.
