Abstract:Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio are important for reservoir characterization and rock brittleness prediction in unconventional resource exploration and development. Conventional methods can estimate Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio by indirect calculations and direct inversion using approximate expressions, which have cumulative errors and limited accuracy of the estimated results, especially at large incident angles. In this study, we derived a new form of the Zoeppritz equation and P-to-P wave reflect… Show more
