A tool attached to a cable which is lowered into a well to survey the borehole before it is cased

Conduct a survey inside a borehole to gather information about the subsurface formations. Logs typically consist of several curves on a long grid that describe properties within the wellbore or surrounding formations that can be interpreted to provide information about the location of oil, gas, and water. Also called well logs, borehole logs, wireline logs, gravity logs, acoustic logs. >

The results of a survey which gathers information about the subsurface formations. Logs typically consist of several curves on a long grid that describe properties within the wellbore or surrounding formations that can be interpreted to provide information about the location of oil, gas, and water. The measurement versus depth or time, or both, of one or more physical quantities in or around a well. The term comes from the word “log” used in the sense of a record or a note. Wireline logs are taken downhole, transmitted through a wireline to surface and recorded there. Measurements-while-drilling (MWD) and logging-while-drilling (LWD) logs are also taken downhole. They are either transmitted to surface by mud pulses, or else recorded downhole and retrieved later when the instrument is brought to surface. Mud logs that describe samples of drilled cuttings are taken and recorded on surface.

A local utility that sells natural gas to consumers within the city or region that the utility serves. LDC’s are usually regulated at the state level
