Abstract: Caliper measurements made during rotation of a bottomhole assembly are processed to estimate the location of the BHA, and size and shape of the borehole. A piecewise elliptical fitting procedure may be used. These estimates may be used to correct measurements made by a standoff-sensitive formation evaluation sensor such as a neutron porosity tool.

Abstract: An unfocused resistivity imaging device horizontal and vertical currents conveyed into the borehole. Pad mounted electrodes are used to make voltage measurements in orthogonal directions. The voltage measurements are then rotated to give principal resistivity measurements in an anisotropic formation with dipping beds.

Abstract: A low value of Th/U ratio as determined from natural gamma radiation is indicative of deepwater sedimentation. This, together with estimates of total organic carbon from pulsed neutron measurements, is used to characterize source rocks.
