• RECORD OF MEASUREMENT ENVIRONMENT
4.1 MEASUREMENT ENVIRONMENT EFFECTS
• Theoretical concepts of well-logging were developed with the
assumption of an infinite, homogeneous, and isotropic medium.
• A logging tool is usually designed to function best in certain
environment.
• Significant parameters are the borehole diameter and shape, the
properties of the drilling fluid filling the borehole, the borehole and
formation temperatures, and radial variation of formation properties

SUMMARY – QUALITY CONTROL OF LOGS
• Quality Control of log data can not be understated. Data QC is a must
to log interpretation
• You must check all of your data first- look at the raw digital data, and
display it as well logs before you begin petrophysical evaluation.
• Use all information available, including the mud log, core data and
well header information.
