Geophysical well logging is routinely used in virtually every oil well drilled
in the world today. It is the primary means by which we characterize the subsurface
in search of hydrocarbons.
Initial applications of well logging were limited to stratigraphic correlation and
basic lithologic description. Today these data can be used for detailed geologic
analyses such as depositional reconstruction and facies characterization. Advances
in computer and electronics capabilities have not only facilitated dramatic improvements
in well logging technologies, but have reduced the costs as well.

These improvements have led to the development of new imaging tools that provide
a more detailed view of the reservoir and source rocks. ARM geologists and geophysicists
use imaging technologies to determine the orientation of fractures and bedding planes
as well as to provide detailed information about composition, structure, and stratigraphy.
In addtion to standard logs such as density, neutron, and resistivity suites, ARM
provides imaging technlogies that can be run in air-filled or “empty” holes. Our
geologists can provide subsurface mapping services and three-dimensional modeling
to provide a more complete understanding of the subsurface.
