Geophysical Well Logging Principles and Practices  (English, Paperback, Jp Vaish)

This book synthesizes the relevant material in the geophysical well logging technology in the form of a book which projects in a systematic manner, the fundamental principles and the data interpretation procedures oriented towards need based geological problems in an easily understandable language.

It is thus a complete document beneficial for easy understanding of geophysical well logging techniques basically and essentially by university graduate and Earth Scientists and Engineers engaged in exploration and drilling.
