Core Logging
Core log correlation
At Blackbourn Geoconsulting we have considerable experience in producing detailed sedimentological logs specific to the requirements of the client.
Depending on the specifications of the client, logs are usually provided at 1:20 or 1:50. Logs at larger or smaller scales can be provided as required.
In addition to the standard representation of lithology, grain size and sedimentary structure, details on the logs are tailored to the needs of the client; and can include core images, porosity, permeability, descriptions, sample depths etc. The cores can be presented either as:
- Hand-drawn logs
- Computer-drawn logs incorporating scanned core images and other data
- Computer-generated logs using the client's graphics software packages
For further details, please contact Dr Graham Blackbourn.
