S-wave velocity provides important information for the purpose of seismic reservoir
characterization. However, it is not usually acquired in all wells due to the high cost and …

Carbonate rocks are in general complex and commonly contain compound pore systems
that can significantly affect the variations of physical properties; their petrophysical …

Abstract The Bakken Formation is a geographically extensive, organic-rich, tight formation in
the Williston Basin and currently serves as the second largest producer of oil in the USA …

Quality, availability and consistency of the measured and interpreted well log data are
essential in the seismic reservoir characterization methods, and seismic petrophysics is the …

Abstract The Kuster–Toksöz (KT) model is a classical rock physics model concerning the
influence of pore geometry on elastic wave velocities. However, this model is limited to a …

Non-destructive testing (NDT) methods are an important means to detect and assess rock
damage. To better understand the accuracy of NDT methods for measuring damage in …

Carbonates are known to have a heterogeneous, complicated pore structure, characterized
by textural variations. This complex nature of carbonates makes it challenging to establish …

The relationship between P-wave velocity and porosity in carbonate rocks shows a high
degree of variability due to the complexity of the pore structure. This variability introduces …

We present a path morphology method to separate total rock pore space into matrix,
fractures and vugs and derive their pore structure spectrum. Thus, we can achieve fine pore …

Biot's coefficient is an essential factor for estimating reliable-effective stress and an efficient
tool in understanding the rock's response to pressure and stress changes. This coefficient is …
