Wellbore electric voltage generation

Input(s)

Ve,wV_{e, w}: Electric Voltage at Wellbore Radius (V)

ΔVe\Delta V_{e}: Voltage Drop Between Wellbore Radius and Drainage Radius (V)

r\mathrm{r}: Specific Location (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

rer_{e}: Drainage Radius (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

rwr_{w}: Wellbore Radius (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

Output(s)

V: Voltage (V)

Formula(s)

V=Ve,wΔVe[ln(rrw)ln(rerw)]V=V_{e, w}-\Delta V_{e} *\left[\frac{\ln \left(\frac{r}{r_{w}}\right)}{\ln \left(\frac{r_{e}}{r_{w}}\right)}\right]
