PEEG 314 Well Logging

This course provides an introduction to the various well logging methods, tools and their principles of operation with emphasis on the relationship between measurements and reservoir petrophysical properties. Conditions and limitations for applications of various logs are discussed. Graphical and analytical methods used to determine formation composition, contents, and its potential for production are developed and applied to create graphs and log traces, and determine reservoir parameters. Well log analysis is further supported by machine learning techniques to estimate formation properties.
