This video is an excellent example of how to define the term "pay-sand." A pay-sand is a reservoir that contains economically producible hydrocarbons. The word derives from the fact that it is capable of "paying" an income. Although not in all cases, in many cases, multiple pay-sands can be a common occurrence.

This video provides an introduction to well logging, the practice of making a detailed scientific record (a well log) of the geologic formations penetrated by a well. The electronic log (E-Log) records measurements made by sophisticated instruments lowered into the hole, giving scientists information about oil and gas's potential presence.
