Hole: M0059E
Expedition: 347
Location:
Latitude: 55° 0.285' N
Longitude: 10° 6.499' E
Logging
date:
Sea floor depth (driller's): 39.17 m DRF
Sea
floor depth (logger's): 39.17 m WRF
Total

The logging data was
recorded by Weatherford Wireline Services under supervision by personnel of RWTH Aachen University, Institute for Applied Geophysics and Geothermal Energy, which is part of the European Petrophysics Consortium
(EPC). Data were
provided by EPC to Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatoy, which formatted the files for inclusion in the online log database.

Hole M0059E was drilled with a 8 1/2 inch bit. In preparation for logging, the hole was circulated with heavy mud and the drill string was pulled back to 15 m WSF. The first tool string (MAI/MCG), Array Induction and Gamma Ray, reached 71 m WSF, where the uplog started. The second tool string (CMI/MCG, MicroImager and Gamma Ray) acquired data from 60 m WSF uplog. The last tool string, MSS/SGS/MCG, which included Total and Spectral Gamma Ray and a Compensated Sonic Tool, also acquired data from 61 m WSF upward.
The depths in the table are for the logs after applying a depth shift to the sea floor.
The data was acquired in high resolution mode with a sampling rate of 0.025 m. The CMI data was sampled every 0.001 m.
Depth shift: A depth shift of 39.17 m was applied to all logs: this amount corresponds to the drilling/logging sea floor depth.
Environmental
corrections: None were applied.
Acoustic data: The data is provided as slowness, expressed in microsec/m and microsec/ft.
The quality of the data is assessed by checking against reasonable values for the logged lithologies and by correspondence between logs affected by the same formation property (e.g. the resistivity log should show similar features to the acoustic log). The quality of the data is good,
The total gamma ray values from the different passes correlate well. The potassium concentration is often extrememely low, beyond the tool detection capability. The gamma ray signature is mostly due to the Uranium and Thorium concentrations.
The hole size was measured by the caliper tool on the CMI, which provides two orthogonal measurements of the hole diameter.
A null
value of -999.25 may replace invalid log values.

information about the drilling and logging operations can be found in the
Operations section of the Downhole Measurement section in the IODP Proceedings of Expedition 347.
