Title: Radioactivity Well Logs, Their Use and Application in Fields of Petroleum Geology, Economic Geology, and Petroleum Engineering: ABSTRACT

Author(s): J. C. Barcklow

Article Type: Meeting abstract

Abstract:

Much experimental work has been done in the past on radioactivity as applied to making well logs. Recently, about June, 1940, such logs were offered to the industry on a commercial basis. Since that time great strides have been made in the technique of producing these logs. With the advent of logs of this sort many uses and applications for them have suggested themselves. They no doubt will occupy a prominent place in the petroleum industry as the members of that industry become better acquainted with them.
