Abstract
Point‐to‐point measurements of radioactivity in bore holes were made with an ionization chamber. The correlation between the curves obtained and the electrical logs for the same holes led to the construction of a more rugged apparatus containing two Geiger counters, coupled separately to two amplifiers and two frequency meters on the surface of the ground. This instrument can be run continuously and logs taken in both cased and open holes. Correlation was obtained between two cased hole records taken several miles apart in West Texas. Remarkable correlation in many instances between radioactivity and electrical logs has been found in the Gulf Coast. The method seems to open up a broad field in cased hole well‐logging.
