Abstract:

Measurement from open-hole well logging has been a significant variability in the oil and gas business as it offers mud logging and measurement while drilling in conventional and wireline logs. Measurement is the base in formation evaluation, proving to be crucial information in applications from simple assessment of individual drilling wells to more general reservoir characterization. Improvements that the open-hole well-logging technology has experienced over time have overruled the challenges related to the accuracy or the efficiency demanded by the requirements of precise and reliable reservoir evaluation. Some of the significant technological progress resulted in better capabilities for measuring the key properties of a reservoir and, thereby, offering scopes for even better decisions about exploration and production. It depicts several examples of such development that describe their real-world application in a holistic view of the modern technological landscape. This paper also reveals ideas about what trends are surfacing and shaping open-hole wells, logging into a future that will see them become a constant process within the industry of continuous change and innovation in methods used to evaluate the subsurface.
