Introduction To Well Logs And Subsurface Maps

Subsurface mapping is a way to visualize various geologic and hydrologic features in any dimension from a one-dimensional cross section to a 4-D production map. All subsurface map types can be useful, but the key is to know what you are investigating and what map types are most appropriate. Jonathan Evenick's new book introduces different types of geophysical logs and subsurface maps that can be generated from basic well data, and subsurface problems that can be solved using geophysical logs and subsurface maps. Hands-on exercises reveal how each map type is generated and what applications they may have. Exercises at the end of each chapter introduce different types of wells and lithologies. Features and Benefits: Introduction to basic well logs and subsurface maps, Applied projects allow users to critique computer-generated maps and data, Hands-on exercises following chapters. This book will be an excellent resource for geologists, geophysicists, petroleum engineers, hydrogeologists, and environmental consultants and will be useful as an academic text in subsurface mapping, well logging, hydrogeology, mining, and petroleum courses.
