Presented at the 2025 Annual Meeting
Well logs are indispensable tools in the oil and gas industry, providing detailed records of geological formations encountered during the drilling of wells. These logs can often appear complex and technical to those outside of geology, making them challenging to interpret. This presentation is designed to simplify well logs for non-geologists, fostering better understanding and communication across various disciplines within the industry. Common types of well logs will be introduced, such as gamma ray, resistivity, sonic, and porosity logs, explaining their fundamental purposes and the key information they provide. Attendees will learn about the practical applications of these logs through clear explanations and illustrative examples that highlight their role in identifying features such as hydrocarbon zones, water saturations, and lithological boundaries. Real-world applications of well log data in exploration and production will be presented to demonstrate how these tools aid in making informed operational decisions and what to look out for in terms of tool measurement quality. An overview of recent advancements in well logging technology and data interpretation techniques, emphasizing how these developments are expanding the use of well logs beyond traditional geological applications will be discussed. Designed for professionals from varied sectors within the energy industry, this session aims to demystify the technical aspects of well logs and enhance interdisciplinary collaboration.
