M.Sc.Thesis: “Coal Ash Estimation Using Well Logging Data from Eastern Parvade of Tabas”
Tehran’s Azad University, Tehran, Iran
Methodology
Quality of coal layers and the geology of the region were analyzed. Raw data from the borehole
layers were gathered by the sensors of Robertson Geology. Laboratory ashes were obtained from
cores, which compared them to estimate ashes from coal seams. A good correlation between
estimated ashes and laboratory ashes was observed (Surfer software was used for: Resistance log,
density log and special natural gamma log; to have close estimation of reality).
Bachelor of Science, Applied Physics June 2003
