Fracture Logging of Core

Reservoir fracturing: Get more value from your core

Core can provide a wealth of fracture attribute information to support the appraisal of storativity and producibility in fractured reservoirs. Our Fracture Logging of Core service will provide a number of benefits:

  • information on the fracture sets relevant to your hydrocarbon storage and flow systems,
  • information on their origin and relative timing,
  • assessment of the origins of fracture porosity within the reservoir,
  • provision of fracture logging training for your staff, and
  • recommendations for coring programs.


Our experienced structural geologists can extract the maximum amount of information about fractures from your core. The service includes;

  • differentiation between natural and induced fractures,
  • information on sealing or flowing capabilities,
  • fracture set parameters for use in geostatistics and Fractured Reservoir Models,
  • petrographic studies and dating of fracture infills, and
  • integration of core data with other data sets, particularly borehole imagery (see Borehole Image Log Interpretation )
