ABSTRACT:
A method for determining the compensated density of a subsurface geological formation wherein the effect of borehole rugosity is reduced or eliminated utilizes the differences in the vertical response functions of the detectors at different distances into the formation. The method eliminates the contribution of the "shallow" formation region, irrespective of whether its properties are varying slowly or rapidly, without degrading the resulting vertical resolution. Furthermore, the method for determining such a characteristic of a subsurface geological formation does not require any additional or new measurements to be made, thus logging data from older wells can easily be reevaluated.
