First, I would like to recognize all of the students who have taken production logging courses from me, both in graduate courses taught at the University of Texas and at Texas A&M University and in the more than 100 industry short courses I have taught since the first edition of this book appeared. Many of these students, particularly those in the industry courses, shared with me and with their colleagues interesting production logs and challenging logging situations they had faced. This sharing helped me remain very interested in production logging technology and aware of the new advances continuously occurring. In fact, a number of the log examples included in this second edition derived from some of these students.
I would also like to thank Jane Eden and Shashana Pearson-Hormillosa for their efforts in editing this book. They were prompt, efficient, and very careful in their editing of this book. I also thank the Society of Petroleum Engineers for publishing this book, and hope that in the future, the Society will continue to take a leading role in publishing books for the benefit of all SPE members.
Finally, I thank my wife, Professor Ding Zhu, for her support and encouragement. I am particularly grateful that in her position as Chair of the SPE Books Committee, she asked me to undertake the writing of this second edition.
