How to Correlate these Logs? Well A Well B Well C Well D SLIDE 15 Here we have 4 logs, either gamma ray or SP Several lithologies have been interpreted Green = coastal plain sandstones and mud Yellow = shallow marine sandstones (beach deposits and nearshore sands) Grey = shelf mudstones (offshore mud/clay) We would like to make some well-to-well correlations Coastal Plain Sandstones and Mudstones Shallow Marine Sandstones Van Wagoner et al., 1990 Shelf Mudstones AAPG©1990 reprinted with permission of the AAPG whose permission is required for further use.
