Density profile

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-000999

A plot or model showing how the bulk density of subsurface rocks varies with depth. This profile is typically derived from density logs, which measure the electron density of formations. It is used in seismic processing for synthetic seismogram generation and in gravity modeling to interpret subsurface structures.
