Abstract

Summary

Thanks to the progress of technology in the last two decades, the development of high resolution borehole imager tools has made borehole images indispensable for the geological characterization of oil and gas reservoirs in exploration and development wells.

In some instances, image logs are used without a full understanding of the workflows and techniques of borehole image acquisition. This paper describes the entire process of borehole image acquisition, including the identification of the different participants, the objective of which is to maximize the quality and reliability of the acquired data.
