UNCONVENTIONAL PLAYS - UNCONVENTIONAL APPROACH
With the continued activity in Unconventional Plays and the deployment of
lateral drilling techniques where conventional logging is less successful,
the Mud Log is sometimes the only source of relevant down-hole
information available.
As a leading provider of seismic data, digital well log data, well
performance (production) data, directional survey data and other well
related products, TGS is focusing more attention on the incredibly
valuable and often overlooked Mud Log. The Mud Log represents a wealth
of information gathered at the time of drilling and includes data from
the drilling engineer and the well site geologist relating to the rock and
hydrocarbons encountered during the drilling process.
In response to industry demand TGS is introducing a number of digital
products from the rich and under-utilized Mud Log. Valuable information
can be gleaned from these logs by standardizing the codes and symbols
used and applying routine corrections and editing techniques. TGS takes
extra measures to provide this more readily useable information.
Standard Mud Log (Mudlas)
The standard MUDLAS product comprises a raster image of the Mud Log,
in color where available, plus digitized and QC’d curves captured from the
log. Historically these were limited to the ROP, Total Gas and Individual
Gas curves (C1, C2, C3 etc.), however, in response to client requests we have
expanded the specification to include any other data item on the log that can
reasonably be captured as a curve. This includes GR, Shows Data, WOB etc.
which are captured and all output into a single LAS v2.0 file. Not only does
this ensure that you receive everything available from the log but also in a
single file with consistent depth increment and standardized mnemonics.

Mud Lithology And Comments (Mudlith)
Following feed-back from our clients TGS will supply both the Mud Lithology
and Comments as a separate product (MUDLITH) upon order. The MUDLITH
will provide both the graphical lithology information and more detailed
description of the cuttings as well as other pertinent information related to
the drilling operation.
Lithology
TGS captures the lithology column from the mud log. Normally each
lithology type is represented by a curve expressed as a percentage of the
total, however, in some cases the lithology is expressed graphically as
individual beds. In either case these data can be digitized and delivered as
an LAS v2.0 file.
Comments
TGS will also capture all the cuttings descriptions, remarks and other
comments as written on the mud log. Each comment is keyed to a discrete
depth and output as a LAS v2.0 file.
