Wireline Standard Data Processing

ODP logging contractor: LDEO-BRG

Well name: 720A

Leg: 117

Location: Indus Fan (tropical NW Indian)

Latitude: 16° 7.796' N

Longitude: 60° 44..621' E

Logging date: September, 1987

Bottom felt: 4045.4 mbrf (used for depth shift to sea floor)

Total penetration: 414.3 mbsf

Total core recovered: 89.4 m (21.6 %)

Logging Runs

Logging string 1: DIT/SDT/NGT (upper and lower section)

No wireline heave compensator was used to counter ship heave.

Bottom-hole Assembly

The logs were recorded open hole.

Processing

Depth shift: No differential depth shift necessary. The original logs have been depth shifted to the sea floor (- 4045.4 m).

Gamma-ray processing: NGT data have been processed to correct for borehole size and type of drilling fluid.

Acoustic data processing: Because of the good quality of the acoustic logs no processing has been necessary.

Quality Control

null value=-999.25. This value may replace recorded log values or results which are considered invalid .

During the processing, quality control of the data is mainly performed by cross-correlation of all logging data. The data of hole 720A are of good quality.

No hole diameter was recorded.
