Abstract

The paper presents the velocity-pressure and quality factor-pressure dependences of a sandstone sample, using the Fourier spectra of the complete waveforms of the P waves measured in laboratory. Measurements were performed on sandstone and (a reference) aluminum sample at 40 different pressures. The professional literature uses approximate methods to determine the value of the quality factor. The spectral ratio method was used to evaluate our measurements. The measured velocity and quality factor data were processed using inversion methods. The results showed that both the velocity-pressure and the quality factor pressure dependence can be well-described utilizing the double relaxation model in forward modeling.
