Measuring Elastic Properties to determine the influence of TOC on Synthetic Shale Samples

This paper describes the factors that control elastic properties of organic shale, which is crucial for exploration and successful gas production from unconventional reservoirs. Mechanical and dynamic elastic properties are main shale characteristics that are not yet well understood as there have be...
