Patent

CA 2458246

A method for determining the location of a target subterranean structure from within an adjacent borehole is disclosed which uses first and second gravity measurement devices disposed at corresponding first and second positions in the adjacent borehole and a magnetic field measurement device disposed one of the first and second positions. The method includes processing a total local magnetic field, a reference magnetic' field, and a local azimuth determined using the gravity measurement devices to determine a portion of the total magnetic field attributable to the subterranean structure multiple points in the adjacent borehole. The location of the subterranean structure is determined using the portion of the total magnetic field attributable thereto. A system adapted to execute the disclosed method arid a computer system including computer-readable logic configured to instruct a processor to execute the disclosed method are also provided.
