Introduction
To check on the tool’s performance against a known fluid conductivity in large water bodies and to establish the percentage of tool’s accuracy under
controlled conditions (min. borehole influence) against ELOG tool.
Also, to compare both log response in various environments; alluvial, hard rock and open water
bodies

Background
Induction log is a very useful tool to study subsurface stratigraphy and formation conductivities in water
well.
It uses EMF (~40KHz) to induce formation’s magnetic field which induced formation’s current flow which is
proportional to formation’s conductivity.
It works best in low resistivity (<100ohmm) formation or non-conductive medium (air).

•
Background
Interpretively, low conductivity value (i.e 50mS/cm) indicate very fresh water while high conductivity
value (i.e 1000mS/cm) indicates salty water.
Resistivity is a reciprocal of conductivity. Hence, the former can be computed from that of the latter.

•
Background
The tool has been 1st order-calibrated in RG’s factory in the UK.
A 2nd order calibration can be done using the available calibration loop with a known max.
conductivity value.
A ‘zero’ calibration can be done by holding the probe up in the air though practically it’s none existent
(only in the vacuum).

Definition
• Conductivity(Siemens) = 1/ resistivity (ohm.m)
• Standard units of conductivity = microS/cm
• microS/cm = 10^4/ohm.m
![Page 14: RG's SIND tool evaluation at batu_dam](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052912/55a161491a28abcf408b4592/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Data Collected
• Fluid conductivity (microS/cm) by Conductivity meter
• Conductivity in (mS/m); Gamma in CPS plus (derived bulk resistivity) by SIND tool
• SNR, LNR(Ohmm); SP (mV); SPR (Ohm); Gamma (CPS) by ELOG tool
• No available conductivity data in DID’s archive for comparison and data integrity checking

Conclusion
1. A consistent shift in resistivity values are observed from that of SIND & ELOG tools in
alluvial and hardrock environment.
2. Recommended resistivity operating range for SIND’s tool is between 0 – 100 Ohmm. Readings are unreliable beyond the recommended range
as shown in Batu Dam evaluation exercise.
