Study Notes
SP Logging
- The total SP potential measured in the borehole is comprised of several components.
Components of SP Potential
- One component of the total SP potential exists due to the flow of an electrolyte through a nonconductive medium.
SP Log Measurements
- The SP log measures the spontaneous potential difference between the borehole and a remote reference electrode.
SP Log Corrections
- Learning outcome: Applying corrections needed for SP logs before using them for interpretation.
Age of SP Log
- The SP log is considered a mature logging technique, meaning it is an older method.
