Corrected gamma ray

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-000861

A gamma ray log measurement that has been adjusted to account for environmental effects and borehole conditions that can influence the raw reading. These corrections typically address variations in borehole size, mud weight, casing, and tool standoff. The corrected log provides a more accurate representation of the formation's natural radioactivity, expressed in API units.
