Hole: U1581B
Expedition: 392

Latitude: 35° 40.8660' S
Longitude: 29° 39.0192' E
Logging date: March 25, 2022
Sea floor depth (driller's): 4602.6 m DRF
Sea floor depth (logger's): 4603.0 m WRF
Total penetration: 5599.7 m DRF (997.1 m DSF)

The logging data were recorded by Schlumberger in DLIS format. Data were processed at the Borehole Research Group of Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in March, 2022.

After the completion of coring operations, the VSI/EDTC tool string was first deployed for logging, followed then by the MSS/HNGS/DSI/HLDS/EDTC toolstring. Due to some technical problems encountered during the logging operation, however, only the VSI downlog pass was made to the depth of 225 m WMSF in the open hole; no VSI data were acquired as a result for this hole.
Sea condition was intermediate with ship's heave in the range of 2 to 3 m. The wireline heave compensator (WHC) was not used while logging due to some technical issues.
The depths in
the table are for the processed logs (after depth shift to the sea floor). Discrepancies may exist between the
sea floor depths determined from the downhole logs and those determined by the
drillers from the pipe length. Typical reasons for the depth discrepancies are ship
heave, wireline and pipe stretch, tides, and the difficulty of getting an
accurate sea floor from a 'bottom felt' depth in soft sediment.
Depth match and depth shift to sea floor. Since there was only one downlog pass for this hole, no depth match was made for the log.
The original logs were depth-shifted to the sea floor.
Gamma ray logs
recorded through bottom hole assembly (BHA) and drill pipe should be used only
qualitatively, because of the attenuation of the incoming signal. The
thick-walled BHA attenuates the signal more than the thinner-walled drill pipe.
A null value of
-999.25 may replace invalid log values.
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 392.
