Type:ClassStereotype:«XSDcomplexType»

A container object for zero or more InterpretedGeologyInterval objects. The container references a specific wellbore, a depth interval, a growing object status, and a collection of interpreted geology intervals.

These values are manually entered per sample by the wellsite geologist or mud logger as an interpretation of the actual lithology sequence along the length of the wellbore by correlating the percentage lithologies observed in the cuttings samples along with other data (typically the drill rate and gamma ray curves), to estimate the location of the boundaries between the different lithology types. This analysis creates a sequence of individual lithologies along the wellbore. Therefore, InterpretedGeology typically contains a single lithology element for each interval that captures the detailed geological description of the lithology.
