Grain Density from HILT Lithology Computation (RHGX_HILT)
This is an acronym for a well log used in the oil and gas industry. You could have found the code RHGX_HILT in your log evaluation software or your corporate datastores. Grain Density from HILT Lithology Computation is the full name for this log. The usage of this log is well established. Use this log to investigate the density of a unit volume of a mineral or other rock material at zero porosity. Sometimes called Matrix Density.This log usually has the unit 'Density'. This is the density (mass per unit volume) of a material. Usually at Standard conditions (STP). Also used to indicate the frequency of occurrence.
Data from this log can be used to investigate the density of the matrix.
