Repeat section

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003107

A segment of a well log that is re-recorded over a specific interval to assess the quality and repeatability of the measurements. This involves running the logging tool back through a previously logged section of the borehole. A good repeat section indicates consistent tool response and stable borehole conditions, confirming the reliability of the primary log data.
