Summary
This chapter focuses on some of the wireline logging tools that can be used to estimate pore pressure. These measurements include sonic velocity, resistivity, and density. In addition, various drilling paramters, such as rate of penetration, torque, and drag, that can be used as pore pressure indicators are described. These are either qualitative or semiqualitative indicators of geopressured zones.
