Depth ft md
From plotting the HS dir and H curve versus depth it is apparent that the
point of closest approach occurs at 2795ft md.
Taking the width of the HS dir curve for -45 to +45 degrees yields
D= 12ft. Hence D = 12/2*tan(50) = 7.1ft from equation 12.33.
Taking the width of the Intensity curve at half the maximum, and sub-
tracting a background signal of 52mA/m/A yields D= 37ft. This yields a
distance of 5.0ft from equation 12.34.
