  2. Spontaneous potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_potential

    Schlumberger Chart SP-2 can then be used to convert R we to obtain R w. Applications on the surface [ edit ] Electrodes can be placed on the ground surface to map relative changes in the SP value (in millivolts , or mV), typically with the goal of identifying the path of groundwater flow in the subsurface, or seepage from an earthen dam .

  3. Spontaneous potential logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_potential_logging

    Spontaneous potential log, commonly called the self potential log or SP log, is a passive measurement taken by oil industry well loggers to characterise rock formation properties. The log works by measuring small electric potentials (measured in millivolts) between depths with in the borehole and a grounded electrode at the surface.

  4. Resistivity logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistivity_logging

    Resistivity logging is a method of well logging that works by characterizing the rock or sediment in a borehole by measuring its electrical resistivity. Resistivity is a fundamental material property which represents how strongly a material opposes the flow of electric current. In these logs, resistivity is measured using four electrical probes ...

  5. Techlog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techlog

    Techlog is a Schlumberger owned Windows based software platform intended to aggregate all the wellbore information. It allows the user to interpret any log and core data. It addresses the need for a single platform able to support all the wellbore data and interpretation integration workflows, reducing the need for a multitude of highly specialized tools.

  6. Formation evaluation gamma ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formation_evaluation_gamma_ray

    The formation evaluation gamma ray log is a record of the variation with depth of the natural radioactivity of earth materials in a wellbore. Measurement of natural emission of gamma rays in oil and gas wells are useful because shales and sandstones typically have different gamma ray levels. Shales and clays are responsible for most natural ...

  7. Gamma ray logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_ray_logging

    Sand section of interest is located at bottom of log where the log moves to the left. Gamma ray logging is a method of measuring naturally occurring gamma radiation to characterize the rock or sediment in a borehole or drill hole. It is a wireline logging method used in mining, mineral exploration, water-well drilling, for formation evaluation ...

  8. Caliper log - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caliper_log

    A caliper log is a well logging tool that provides a continuous measurement of the size and shape of a borehole along its depth [1] and is commonly used in hydrocarbon exploration. The measurements that are recorded can be an important indicator of wash-outs, cave ins or shale swelling in the borehole, which can affect the results of other well ...

  9. Well logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_logging

    Well logging, also known as borehole logging is the practice of making a detailed record (a well log) of the geologic formations penetrated by a borehole.The log may be based either on visual inspection of samples brought to the surface (geological logs) or on physical measurements made by instruments lowered into the hole (geophysical logs).
