Tube Wave Attenuation and In-Situ Permeability

The measurement of in-situ permeability is very important in exploration and production logging. Observed data show that tube wave attenuation in full waveform acoustic logs is correlated with formation permeability. It is postulated that attenuation is due to fluid flowing away from the borehole...
