An index of geophysical well logging in Virginia by the U.S. Geological Survey
Open-File Report
82-432
By: M. Patrick Mulheren, J. D. Larson, and Herbert T. Hopkins
Geophysical logs have been obtained in more than 170 wells in Virginia by the U.S. Geological Survey since 1968. These logs include natural gamma, electric, caliper, temperature, fluid conductivity, and fluid velocity. Most of the logs are for wells in the Coastal Plain Province of eastern Virginia. Geophysical logs aid in the interpretation of properties of earth materials, including the capacity to store and transmit water in the immediate vicinity of the well bore.
