the effect of pore geometry on seismic wave velocities in carbonate rocks from hydrocarbon reservoirs
the goal of this laboratory study is to investigate the effect of pore shapes on seismic wave velocities in carbonate rocks under reservoir conditions. in this research, 41 core plugs of carbonate rocks from oil fields of the southwest of iran were prepared. the compressional and shear wave velocities were measured in both dry and brine saturated samples under several pressures especially reser...
متن کاملEstimating seismic velocities at ultrasonic frequencies in partially saturated rocks
Seismic velocities in rocks at ultrasonic frequencies depend not only on the degree of saturation but also on the distribution of the fluid phase at various scales within the pore space. Two scales of saturation heterogeneity are important: (1) saturation differences between thin compliant pores and larger stiffer pores, and (2) differences between saturated patches and undersaturated patches a...
متن کاملLaboratory measurements of seismic P-wave velocities on rocks from the Betic chain (southern Iberian Peninsula)
Ultrasonic laboratory measurements of seismic compressional velocities (Vp) carried out on rock samples encompasing a wide range of metamorphic grades and lithologies from the Betic chain are presented. Measurements were performed at a high confining pressure on a total of 12 representative samples of the Alboran Domain (Internal Betics). P-wave mean velocities, referred to pressure conditions ...
متن کاملWave Velocities in Rocks as a Function of Changes in Overburden Pressure and Pore Fluid Saturants
A system has been developed for determining precisely the dilatational and shearwave group velocities in rock samples subjected to hydrostatic confining and internal pore pressures independently to 10,000 psi. Pulses of polarized shear waves of SO@kc/sec carrier frequency are produced and detected by axially polarized ceramic transducers attached to Pyrex glass prisms mounted in pressure-sealed...
متن کاملA Refined Formula for the Allowable Soil Pressure Using Shear Wave Velocities
Based on a variety of case histories of site investigations, including extensive bore hole data, laboratory testing and geophysical prospecting at more than 550 construction sites, an empirical formulation is proposed for the rapid determination of allowable bearing pressure of shallow foundations in soils and rocks. The proposed expression corroborates consistently with the results of the clas...
