| Raw deep induction conductivity (CIRD) |
This is the name of a log measured along a well bore (a well-log). You could find this abbreviation CIRD in your log evaluation software or any (ASCII) log files provided by the logging company. The code stands for 'Raw deep induction conductivity'. This log is not often acquired after (or during) drilling a well. Use this log to investigate the conductivity, measured by an induction log, which represents a measurement made several feet into the formation; generally considered a measurement of the undisturbed formation.This log usually has the unit 'Conductivity'. This is the quantity of electricity transferred across unit area per unit potential gradient per unit time. In isotropic material, it is the reciprocal of Resistivity. Sometimes called Specific Conductance. Data for this log is produced by a tool that uses a induction logging technique and can be used to investigate the conductivitty of the formation. Similar logs are listed below:
