The following short video-clips illustrate the involvement of the European Petrophysics Consortium (EPC) in the coordination of downhole logging operations and the acquisition of core physical properties measurements from a number of IODP expeditions. The footage is from the mission specific platform (MSP) Expeditions 302, 310, 313, 325 347 and 364, undertaken by the ECORD Science Operator (ESO). Also included is Expedition 318 and 321, conducted by the United States Implementing Organization (USIO) with their riserless drilling vessel JOIDES Resolution. Footage for Expedition 343, operated by the Center for Deep Earth Exploration (CDEX) with their riser equipped vessel Chikyu, is also presented.

Load the video related to: In April and May of 2016 the European Consortium for Ocean Research Drilling (ECORD) Science Operator (ESO) carried out the Mission Specific Platform Expedition 364, Chicxulub Impact Crater, on board the "Liftboat Myrtle". This was followed by the Onshore Science Party (OSP) in Bremen, Germany, where standard measurements are recorded on the recovered core. This video shows a typical 15 hour shift in the petrophysics lab during the OSP, condensed into 90 seconds.

Load the video related to: Expedition 343 (JFAST) was undertaken by the Japanese Implementing Organization, Center for Deep Earth Exploration (CDEX) at the Japan Agency for Marine Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC), employing the drill ship Chikyu. The main goal of the expedition was to understand the very large fault slip that occurred on the shallow portion of the subduction zone during the Tohoku earthquake, that led to the devastating Tsunami of 2011.
