Abstract:Wellbore streaming current and their applicability in the location of subsurface sand bodies were discovered in 1931 and the usefulness of this measurement has persisted to the present day. Through the endeavor of many researchers, knowledge and understanding of streaming potential (SP) have slowly evolved from the original mere recognition of its existence to its present-day quantitative use in many applications such as Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), water flooding, intelligent wells, etc. The spontaneous poten… Show more
