Abstract
Fundamental coring methods fall into three main categories consisting of conventional coring, wireline continuous coring, and sidewall coring. Conventional and wireline continuous methods are applied at the time of drilling and are thus named bottomhole coring. Sidewall coring is used after drilling. These methods are introduced in this chapter (using Anderson 1975; EXLOG/Whittaker 1985; Harrigan and Cole 2011, etc.).
