BEP-01 Combination Borehole Probe
The BEP-01 is a combination probe designed to measure two physical rock properties in a borehole. The probe is equipped with the following sensors:
- Induction conductivity sensor.
- Natural gamma (Total count and KUT).
The BEP-01 is controlled by an on-board microprocessor, which can sample up to 10 separate sensors at a rate of 2 Hz with up to 24 bits of resolution. The sensors are contained in a non-magnetic, non-conductive housing, that is pressure rated to 3000 meters of water pressure. The BEP-01 is compatible with the BIN-04 or BIN-07 digital data interface and IFG Corporation’s standard 4 conductor logging cable or mono cable.
The BEP-01 is a cost-effective way to obtain a number of geophysical logs in a single survey run. The probe provides the measurement of 4 channel radiometric and inductive conductivity. The gamma sensor is a single crystal CsI(Na) detector with a dimension of 25mm X 75mm. The radiometric channels are total count , K40, Bi214 and Tl208. The inductive conductivity sensor is a single coil that measures the conductivity of the rock and has a penetration of 5cm. This sensor is designed for high conductivity (>5mS/m), with a very large dynamic range.
