Abstract

New way for quantitative evaluation of any value of formation permeability based on numerical experiments with Pride's model of electrokinetic phenomena is presented. This approach is based on simultaneous measurement of pressure field and axial component of electric field excited by an acoustic source in fluid-filled borehole with help a set of receivers in borehole. Frequency dependence of ratio of the complex-valued amplitudes of the electric Stoneley wave to the pressure Stoneley wave obtained as a result of plane-wave decomposition of pressure field and mentioned component of electric field carries important information about permeability. In case of open and sealed pores on borehole wall were obtained enough simple analytical expressions for this ratio.
