Description

Nuclear techniques are critical in the exploration for oil and in the control of oil wells, and intrinsic to uranium exploration. This volume includes comprehensive review articles by internationally eminent scientists and engineers, on a wide variety of techniques and applications in the area of nuclear geophysics, including important new techniques and equipment being developed for use in the metalliferous and industrial minerals industries. Also included is a description of neutron interaction methods now being introduced to give a total elemental analysis, calorific value and ash-content, on-line.

Table of Contents

Editorial Coal analysis by nuclear methods Natural gamma-radiation: a steering guide in coal seams A technique for measuring the ash content of coal in a tailings stream Nuclear geophysics in prospecting, exploration and development of oil and gas fields Advances in gamma-gamma logging Uranium logging with prompt fission neutrons On-stream analysis of metalliferous ore slurries Mineral exploration of the sea bed by towed sea bed spectrometers Tracer techniques in hydrology Index
