Borehole geophysics and formation evaluation 2024

The lectures and exercises provide basic knowledge about the acquisition, processing and interpretation of borehole geophysical data. Besides borehole probes to determine borehole geometry, the focus is on electrical, radioactive and acoustic logging methods. Fundamental
physical and petrophysical knowledge, equipment design and data acquisition techniques are explained. Starting from simple rock models, the derivation of reservoir characteristics (porosity, permeability, saturation) from physical parameters is discussed. In the exercises, data processing and combined evaluation and interpretation techniques for borehole geophysical data from various areas of application are learned and applied independently.
