An Overview Of Borehole Geophysical Methods For Solving Engineering And Environmental Problems

Borehole logging methods as applied to the non-petroleum<br>sector have enjoyed a resurgence of growth in recent years.<br>Engineers and hydrologists are beginning to appreciate the added<br>value of accurate borehole geophysical data as an aid in solving<br>engineering and environmental problems. Better understanding of<br>,traditional techniques and application of new methods have led to<br>growth in the application of borehole logging. Proper use of<br>standard logging measurements can serve both the geotechnical and<br>groundwater scientists if limitations are known. New<br>developments in borehole geophysics promise to increase the<br>importance of this data to engineers and earth scientists.
