It involves both lectures and practical exercises using real examples, and stresses the use of all available data in a coherent interpretation approach. Right - Different images in different deviations of borehole. Including tool related, dip related and non-geological artefacts of dipmeter and borehole image logs. Methodology and exercises. Left - Two images from the STAR tool, one with two artefacts, hole spiralling and 'woodgrain'.
Identification is crucial for a thorough interpretation.
Basic techniques for image interpretation and data analysis. Right - Know when to use the right plot style and scale at what stage of the interpretation. Left - Complex fractures are orientated and described using borehole images. Right - sedimentary facies and depostional environment analysis, incorporating images, core and log data. Petrophysical Application - understanding the use of imaging tools in petrophysical studies.
