1.	To enhance long range petrophysical (in addition to seismic) measurements                      TE
         and images of the reservoir derived from downhole sources/sensors.

	(Asset focus: appraisal and field development; improved recovery from existing 
        fields)

2.	To improve understanding and utility of petrophysical data through, for                         TE+E
         example:

	-	integration, scaling and cross-correlation of petrophysical measurements;
	-	assessment of stress sensitivity of petrophysical measurements;
	-	improved integration of lab and field data;
	-	improved interpretation processes including further use	of neural net technology.

	(Asset focus: field development; exploration and appraisal)	

TE- technology enhancement.  CR- cost reduction.  E- enabling.
