Well Logging Quality Control

Course Objectives

        ·   This course introduces fundamental log quality control concepts for all open hole logs usually run in wells.

        ·    The participants will learn how to effectively control the quality of all logs in real time.

        ·       Understanding the rock/fluid model for log analysis

        ·       Gaining insight into rock quality versus well performance

        ·       Answering oriented results, with quality control guidelines

        ·       Defining basic survey parameters, establishing log scales,

        ·       Understanding how to monitor tool responses

      ·    Understanding how to confirm the validity of the data acquired from commonly used logging devices.

     ·   This course establishes some general guidelines for conducting logging operations, reviewing tool calibrations, monitoring survey progress, calculating shale volume, porosity, water saturation, and permeability from older open and cased hole well logs. Integration and calibration to modern tests
