Synopsis

This revised and rewritten edition presents an account of the various open-hole log tools and the data they generate. In particular, it provides a comprehensive geological interpretation of the derived data enabling the geologist to capitalize fully upon well data. Early chapters consider each of the principal open-hole logging tools and measurements made are discussed in terms of simple theory and acquisition of data. Dipmeter and image logs are included. The lithological, environmental, stratigraphic and sequence stratigraphic interpretation of the full log suite is then described, using real examples from around the world.
