The high-resolution

Heat-Pulse Flowmeter

can measure flow as low

as .01 gallons per minute.

Well development prior to flowmeter logging; many logs are most effective under specific borehole conditions, so that proper conditioning of boreholes and recording borehole conditions during logging are important steps in effective borehole geophysics.
