Abstract
- Today’s advanced borehole acoustic analysis not only enhances the rock physic characteristics of shale gas plays but it also provides new insights in geomechanics applications and fracture identification. Current borehole acoustic tools can detect the azimuthal and transverse shear wave intrinsic rock anisotropy. They also help identify stress-sensitive formations and help in the evaluation of natural fractures, those that intersect the borehole as well as those that do not.
