Borehole logs are used to display the results of oil and gas, mining, geotechnical and environmental drilling and sampling. Logs can be used to display soil and rock samples. Logs can contain general borehole data (i.e., location, client, project number); lithologic descriptions and symbols for each layer; sample data; well completion details; water level measurements; geophysical logs; and numerous graphs and text columns. Once a log is created, it can be easily copied using a toolbar button and then edited and saved to represent other boreholes on the same site.

The creation and editing of borehole logs is supported by the following features:

• Standard Windows new, open, save, and print commands.
• No limit to the maximum depth of a borehole log.
• The plot depth per page can be set in the template or changed for each log.
• Borehole data in the headers and footers can contain checkboxes and rich text (font type, size, color, etc. can be modified).
• Logs can contain an unlimited number of header/footer titles, layers, samples, wells, text comments, bitmaps, etc.
• An unlimited number of floating paragraph text boxes can be added anywhere to a borehole log. The background and frame colors can be specified individually for each text box.
• An unlimited number of bitmap files can be imported into a borehole log. These files can contain logos, site maps, sample pictures, etc.

• An unlimited number of lines, arrows, and rectangles can be added.
• Version 1 and 2 borehole logs can be imported.
• Spell checking in 8 different languages.
• All or selected logs within a project can be printed.
• Default template and lithologic library can be specified.
• Importation of data directly from Excel spreadsheets.
• Total depth can be automatically plotted at the end of the borehole.
• Borehole logs can be imported and exported using a text exchange format.
• Borehole logs can be exported to the Windows clipboard, a bitmap file, a metafile, or an AutoCAD DXF file.

Lithologic Layers

• An unlimited number of lithologic layers can be added.
• Each lithologic layer can have an optional title.
• Rich text support in headers, footers, descriptions, text comments, and paragraphs. No limit to the size of the text. Text can contain foreign characters.
• Macros containing text and symbol definitions can be inserted into lithologic layers.
• Macros contain text and symbol definitions and can be added and edited by the user.
• Layer descriptions can contain rich text (i.e., varying fonts, colors, and symbols).
• Symbols for each lithologic layer can be selected from an unlimited number of lithologic libraries. Each library contains 18 symbols.
• Lithologic symbols can be split to show two symbols per layer. The percentage and split angle can be specified.
• The contact angle between lithologic symbols can be specified and used to represent gradational contacts.
• The program comes with over 100 lithologic symbols.
• Lithology can be cross-plotted with graphs to highlight the relationship between lithology and graph variables.
• Bottom layer boundary as well as the top boundary can be specified.
• Foreground and background colors can be specified for each lithologic symbol.
• The lines between layers can be individually customized.
• Core logs can be specified at separate intervals and with different lithologies than layers.

Samples

• An unlimited number of soil or rock samples can be added.
• Start depth, length, sample symbol, type, blows/ft, recovery, and other text data can be specified for each sample.
• An unlimited number of other sample columns can be used for a wide variety of text and numeric sample data.
• The lines between samples can be individually customized.
• Sample type symbols can be selected from 30 different symbols.
• Recoveries can be represented as numbers or as a shaded box.
• Blow counts can be shown on one line or four lines.

Wells

• An unlimited number of wells can be added.
• Complex well diagrams can be drawn to scale and show multiple casings, piezometers, text annotation, and water level measurements.
• Well macros can be used to add complex well diagrams with multiple casings, piezometers, text annotation, and water level measurements as easily as selecting the well name from a list.
• Wells can be shown using three different methods with varying levels of complexity.
• Wells can be drawn by selecting from a variety of seals, packing material, casings, screens, covers, caps, reducers, tubing, sampling ports, etc.
• Well completion details are drawn in vector mode to scale.
• Wells can contain multiple casings and screens.
• The diameters of the pipes and screens can be varied with depth.
• Horizontal and vertical text annotation can be added to the sides of the well to show completion details and other information.
• Annotation can be connected to well components using three different arrow styles.
• Multiple water levels can be annotated within wells.

Graphs

• An unlimited number of graphs can be added to the borehole log.
• Each graph can contain an unlimited number of data points.
• Graphs can be cross-plotted with lithology.
• Graphs can be combined to form double graphs.
• Graph values outside of graph range are shown with a '<' or '>' symbol.
• Graphs can be shown as points, curves, bar charts (histograms) in linear or logarithmic scales.
• Graph data can be shown as bar charts, lines, data points, or filled curves.
• Horizontal axis can be plotted in log or linear scale.
• Graph can contain a grid and point labels.

Text

• An unlimited number of text columns can be added to a borehole log.
• Each text column can contain an unlimited number of text comments.
• Text comments can contain rich text, symbols, and lines.

Geophysical Data

• An unlimited number of geophysical logs can be imported into a borehole log.
• A wide variety of standard formats are supported.
• Geophysical logs can be cross-plotted with lithology.
• Either one or two geophysical logs can be displayed in a column.
