Well Logging

Well logging is a scientific process used primarily in the oil and gas industry to gather information about geological formations deep underground. As a section of the well is drilled, instruments are lowered into the borehole to measure various properties, such as rock types, fluid composition, and the presence of hydrocarbons. This data helps engineers and geologists assess the potential value of the well, guiding decisions on extraction methods and production strategies. Essentially, well logging provides a detailed snapshot of the subsurface environment, enabling informed choices about resource management and exploration.
