Caliper Borehole Logging Probe with Optical Televiewer data
QL40-CAL Tool Bitmap

Description

The QL40-CAL Caliper probe records a single continuous borehole diameter log by means of three mechanically coupled arms in contact with the borehole wall. The 3 arm caliper measurement is a useful first log to determine the borehole condition before running other well logging probes.

Applications

  • Borehole diameter measurement
  • Borehole volume calculation before borehole completion, cementation
  • Fracture and cavity localization
  • Rock integrity evaluation
  • Often used in the implementation of environmental correction equations for other logs
