The logging data
was recorded by Schlumberger in LDF/DLIS format. 53 good shots were acquired at 8 stations.All processing, including first
arrival picking and stacking, was performed by Schlumberger during
Expedition 374. The data was then
converted into SEGY format at LDEO/BRG, using code developed in house.
Stacks are
generally calculated with at least nine good traces.
All the data in
the SEGY files are sorted shot by shot (i.e. chronologically).
Additional information about the drilling and logging operations can be found in the Operations and Downhole Measurements sections of the expedition report, Proceedings of the International Ocean Discovery Program, Expedition 374. For further questions about the logs, if the hole is still under moratorium please contact the staff scientist of the expedition.
