Summary The introduction to borehole geophysics presented here emphasizes hardware, operational aspects, key geophysical measurements along with their pitfalls, and an overview of well log interpretation principles. It gives an explanation of what is seen at the wellsite while the interpretation chapters aid in understanding how logs are used for formation evaluation, their most immediate purpose. This overview will help in understanding how each piece of a logging course fits together. By understanding well logging principles, an explorationist will have a better knowledge of geophysical well logging than is provided by an interpretation course alone and will develop a better background from which to make log quality judgments.
