  2. Well logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_logging

    Spectral acoustic logging is an acoustic measurement technique used in oil and gas wells for well integrity analysis, identification of production and injection intervals and hydrodynamic characterisation of the reservoir. Spectral acoustic logging records acoustic energy generated by fluid or gas flow through the reservoir or leaks in downhole ...

  4. Measurement while drilling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_while_drilling

    During such drilling, data is acquired from the drilling rig sensors for a range of purposes such as: decision-support to monitor and manage the smooth operation of drilling; to make detailed records (or well log) of the geologic formations penetrated by a borehole; to generate operations statistics and performance benchmarks such that ...

  5. Logging while drilling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logging_while_drilling

    Logging while drilling (LWD) is a technique of conveying well logging tools into the well borehole downhole as part of the bottom hole assembly (BHA).. Although the terms Measurement while drilling (MWD) and LWD are related, within the context of this section, the term MWD refers to directional-drilling measurements, e.g., for decision support for the smooth operation of the drilling, while ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. 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.

  8. Petrophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrophysics

    The petrophysicists workflow measures and evaluates these petrophysical properties through well-log interpretation (i.e. in-situ reservoir conditions) and core analysis in the laboratory. During well perforation, different well-log tools are used to measure the petrophysical and mineralogical properties through radioactivity and seismic ...

  9. Formation evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formation_evaluation

    Wireline logging can be defined as being "The acquisition and analysis of geophysical data performed as a function of well bore depth, together with the provision of related services." Note that "wireline logging" and "mud logging" are not the same, yet are closely linked through the integration of the data sets.
