terms:rectify
An obsolete term meaning to adjust records on a borehole log for true vertical depth. Logs in slant holes are usually recorded in distance measured along the well bore, which makes them difficult to correlate with other logs from other wells which intersect the formations differently. This adjustment is necessary in order to observe the true structural relationships between corresponding strata in different wells. See true vertical depth.
