Abstract

Normal well logging techniques in the Raft River wells have failed to give definitive information about the actual production zones. The most useful tool has been the temperature log under non-equilibrium conditions, both flowing and quasi-static. The use of injected cold water has been a powerful tool in developing these non-equilibrium logging situations that have pinpointed the production zones.
