Calibrated Pressure Tens Digit (CTEN) |
This is an acronym for a well log used in the oil and gas industry. The acronym CTEN can be found in any (ASCII) log files provided by the logging company. The full name for this log used in the industry is 'Calibrated Pressure Tens Digit'. Usage of this log is not high and encountering it is a rare occasion. Use this log to investigate the element of a representation for pressure data in which each digit in the decimal pressure (1's, 10's, 100's, etc. )is stored as a separate unitless digit. This method is obsolete, but the property is needed for mapping historical data. Simply said, this is a log that describes the force or thrust exerted over a surface divided by its area; e.g., hydrostatic, flow, pump, etc. May be gauge or absolute.This log in unitless. Either the log measurements can not be expressed with a unit (eg. a ratio) or the unit is unknown to us. Data from this log can be used to investigate the pressure. Similar logs are listed below:
