Core logging is an essential part of our drilling programs, but getting it right can be tricky. I’ve been managing logs for a project in the Permian Basin, and I noticed that discrepancies in sample intervals often lead to confusion during analysis. How do you all ensure accuracy in your core logs, especially when dealing with inconsistent rock types?
I totally get the struggle with sample intervals leading to confusion. One thing that’s helped us is implementing a color-coding system for different rock types in our logs; it makes discrepancies more visual and easier to catch. How do you handle logging during shifts with varied rock types?
I’ve also found it helps to use more detailed descriptions in the logs. Have you considered integrating digital tools for real-time tracking?

Have you tried using a digital core logging system — it can really help with those sample interval discrepancies. @samrodr might have some insights on this.
