Abstract/Summary

This report examines the borehole geophysical logging undertaken for Nirex investigations of the Sellafield Area as part of the UK radioactive waste management programme. The report examines the logging undertaken in each borehole and also using each major type of logging tool studying the parameters applied during acquisition, calibration of the logging tools and corrections applied both during and after the acquisition process. It looks in detail at the borehole imaging logs used extensively in the Sellafield investigations The report attempts to quantify the reliability of the logging by studying the repeatability of the logging from examining the correlations between over–lapping sections of logging data. It also examines the validity and effect of those corrections that were applied to the logging data post-acquisition.
