The ground truth for high-resolution information to address reservoir complexity and to guide and constrain modeling is conventional whole core. But, it’s obviously not practical to core and analyze the entire drilled well. Nor is the resolution and confidence of what can be interpreted from seismic data alone sufficient.
The industry’s recognized approach for efficiently acquiring representative information is wireline openhole logging, deploying sensors to measure all aspects of the reservoir in situ and in real time.
