What Does BHGM Stand For?

BHGM stands for Borehole Gravity Meter

BHGM, or Borehole Gravity Meter, is a precision instrument used to measure gravitational acceleration variations within boreholes. It enables geophysicists and geologists to assess subsurface density distributions and geological structures, providing critical data for resource exploration and geotechnical studies. The BHGM operates by detecting minute changes in gravitational pull caused by differences in mass and density, enhancing our understanding of underground characteristics. This tool is essential in fields such as mineral exploration, geothermal energy assessment, and hydrology.
