    Petrophysics involves interpreting rocks drilled in boreholes using well logging data. A petrophysicist designs well data acquisition, interprets the data to identify oil and gas reservoirs, and determines reservoir properties and fluid contents. Key well logging tools include gamma ray, resistivity, density, and neutron logs which provide data on lithology, porosity, and fluid content. Petrophysicists analyze this well logging data to evaluate reservoirs and quantify hydrocarbon volumes.

    What is Petrophysics?

    Petrophysics or rock physics was a term
    coined by the famous Shell engineer Gus
    Archie in the 1950s to describe the
    process of interpreting rocks drilled
    in a borehole.

    Also referred to as formation evaluation or
    log analysis

    What Does a Petrophysicist Do?
    Designs and supervises data acquisition
    and interprets well data to identify and
    quantify oil and gas in the wells

    Identifies reservoirs, their properties,
    and fluid contents
