Formation Stress Estimation Using Standard Acoustic Logging
In situ formation stress directions and magnitudes are estimated by inverting the borehole flexural and Stoneley dispersions obtained from standard acoustic logging data (dipole and monopole logs). The underlying procedure consists of the following steps: first, we locate stressed zones in the for...
