    • The Effects of Confining Pressure and Fluid Saturation on Ultrasonic Velocities in Rocks 

      Coyner, Karl B.; Cheng, C. H. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 1985)
      Laboratory measurements of ultrasonic p- and S-wave velocities were made as a function of confining pressure for vacuum dry, benzene-, and water-saturated samples of Westerly granite, Bedford limestone, and Weber, Navajo, ...

    • Petroleum Source Rock Logging 

      Mendelson, James (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 1985)
      Regional distributions of organic content are an important aid in developing basin evolution and hydrocarbon generation models. An approach to evaluate hydrocarbon source rocks using resistivity, sonic, density, neutron ...

    • Inversion of Travel Time for Velocity Using Multi-Spacing Sonic Tools 

      Paternoster, Benoit J. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 1985)
      Spatial resolution of sonic logs is greatly affected by the minimum spacing between receivers. Improvements can be made, however, when the spatial sampling of the formation is less than the minimum spacing. This paper ...
