Caliper log
CALIPER LOGS
- Applications:
Measure borehole diameter
(borehole geometry if multi-arm
caliper tools with 2 or 3 hole
diameters measurements 90 or
60 relative to each other).
Important measurement for drillers:
hole geometry, hole/cement
volume.
Hole diameters are an import input
parameter for the environmental
correction of petrophysical logs.
Oriented multi-arm caliper logs are
used to identify principle stress
directions - breakout log
- Basic Quality Control:
Perform casing check - should read
nominal casing ID.

Static SP (SSP)
Rw from SSP
Under certain circumstances Rw
can be estimated from SP.
The SP value remains constant for
at least 30 feet.
The area where the SP is constant
must correspond to a very clean
sandstone.
The value of Rmf must remain
constant across this same interval.
These conditions are rare, and
large errors in the Rw estimate
may occur.
Use this technique with care!
