Abstract: Previous HitDigitalNext Hit Well Logs + Previous HitDigitalNext Hit Computer = A New Practical Exploration Tool in the Frio Trend

Phillip L. Work (1)

ABSTRACT

Petrophysical analysis utilizing Previous HitdigitalNext Hit-log information has recently become a recognized tool in the search for oil and gas. Until now, this method has not been widely used in exploration programs, due to the unavailability of a mass of accurate, inexpensive Previous HitdigitalNext Hit-well-log data and adequate computer software to completely analyze the data.

These data and analysis capabilities are now available to the oil industry and can be readily used in modern petroleum exploration programs.

Results from computer analysis of Previous HitdigitalNext Hit logs from many wells can develop leads for exploration trends, locate possible by-passed hydrocarbon bearing areas, better indicate productive horizons within a well.
