Application of Sonic Log for Exploration

Mechanical compaction of clay occurs in a geologically short time, and migration may be controlled mainly by quick mechanical compaction. It is possible to determine directions of compaction current by using porosity distributions of covered mudstones, derived from Sonic log. The differential compac...
