ABSTRACT:
Two downhole measurement-while-drilling tools, at least one of which is borehole sensitive, are used to make standard measurements of borehole conditions while drilling. From these measurements, and with some prior knowledge of the lithology, the caliber of the borehole is determined by iteration. The preferred tools are a neutron porosity and a density tool with lithology having been determined by prior seismic survey techniques.
