In addition to lithological interpretation, a number of physical and chemical properties of the surrounding rock and fluids contained therein can be investigated.
Geophysical logs can be run in all boreholes including those cased with metal or plastic casing and filled with water, brine, mud, drilling foam or air. The greatest return of information is derived from open (uncased) boreholes filled with formation water or mud. In plain-cased boreholes, investigation of the geological formation is limited to the nuclear logs and, with plastics casing, induction logs may also be used. Conventional resistivity logs (especially focused ones) are possible to use in plastic screens.
The wealth of information from geophysical logs means that they can be used in many spheres of hydrogeological investigation; for example, in water resources projects to investigate aquifer hydraulics and distribution of yield within an aquifer of group of aquifers. In the rapidly expanding field of groundwater quality control, geophysical logging is now extensively used to monitor groundwater pollution, to trace leachate movement and to monitor the boundaries between saline interfaces.
Borehole logging is also important in investigating the deep hydraulic and hydrogeological properties of rocks in geothermal and radioactive waste disposal projects. There are a number of engineering applications of geophysical logging for investigating borehole conditions and, where television logging is available, for the inspection of casing and pumps.
Figure 2 shows an example of a composite log where the disposition of aquifers can be seen.
Geophysical logging can be repeated many times in a borehole or series of boreholes at intervals ranging from minutes to years, adding a new dimension to the information obtainable. This is particularly applicable to aquifer hydraulics and recharge and pollution studies.
Geophysical logs also provide information that can be directly used in surface geophysical studies for standardization and calibration of parameters. For example, sonic logs can be calibrated with seismic sections and resistivity logs can be compared with surface electrical resistivity surveys for resistivity standardization.
