Abstract

Summary

Borehole images provide high-resolution information about the section logged and are commonly used to extract information about layer boundaries. The work presented here describes a method to extract information from different scales of cycles from borehole images. Extracting information from high resolution image data has advantages over conventional logs in that corrections can be made for both local heterogeneity and dip. The high frequency information provides high-resolution information down to the scale of the image (for thin bed analysis). Lower frequency information can also be extracted and compared to information from standard logging tools. Both the method and examples of some of the applications are discussed.
