En collectant en cours de forage des informations sur la boue et le processus de forage, la diagraphie de boue fournit des données permettant d'évaluer aussi bien les formations que l'efficacité du forage. Pour ce qui est de l'analyse des formations, la diagraphie de boue complète la diagraphie par câbles et les mesures collectées au cours du forage. Pour ce qui est de l'efficacité du forage, la diagraphie de boue renseigne sur l'état dynamique du puits et permet d'optimiser les propriétés de la boue de forage. 5, record 1, French, - diagraphie%20de%20boue
