Theoretical Models Relating Acoustic Tube-Wave Attenuation To Fracture Permeability - Reconciling Model Results With Field Data

Several recent investigations indicate that tube-wave amplitude attenuation in acoustic full-waveform logs is correlated with permeability in fractured rocks. However, there are significant differences between predictions based on theoretical models for tubewave propagation and experimental wavef...
