This is an abbreviation for a well log acquired after or during drilling. You could have found the code VSDI in your log evaluation software or your corporate datastores. Shale Volume Difference is the offical name for this log. This log is not used too often in the industry.

This log helps to evaluate the volume fraction of shale as calculated, measured or inferred from formation properties.

Concluding, this is a measure of the ratio of the volumes occupied by two components, or by one component to the total volume of the system.

This log usually has the unit 'Standard Volume Ratio'.

Data from this log can be used to investigate the volume fraction of the formation. Similar logs are listed below:
