Stress Dependency of Shale Elastic Properties: Measurements, Modelling and Prediction

Stress dependency of the TI elastic tensor of shales is important for seismic interpretation, fluid identification,4D monitoring, etc. Using Sayers-Kachanov formalism, we develop a new model for transversely isotropic (TI) media which predicts stress dependency of all five elastic coefficients. The...
