Abstract

[It is an art to learn the story beneath our feet. Human used to travel hundreds of thousands of miles and accomplished a space trip to the moon, whereas the journey into the earth can never penetrate even the shell. For centuries, geoscientists have been practicing new technologies adopted from inter-disciplines of mechanics, physics, chemistry, and mathematics to improve the understanding of inside earth. As a planetary science, geology concerns with the earth composition and its change over time. Figuring out the geological structure is essential for mineral and hydrocarbon exploration. Drilling, as a practice in the exploration, helps people learn the geological properties through direct contact with earth formation. In this chapter, we will introduce the fundamental concepts of drilling and well logging, electromagnetic logging-while-drilling service, and the mathematical tools people used to extract the information hidden behind the drilling data. Starting from it, we will reveal the topic of this book, a powerful tool for logging data interpretation, statistical Bayesian inference.]
