Objectives
Examine unconventional shale reservoir sensitivity to:
Saturation
Stress
Frequency
Anisotropy
Cracks

Laboratory Experiments
• Two experiments:• Constant stress and
varying saturation. (done previously – data available)
• Constant saturation and varying confining and axial stresses. (April 2015 – data processing)
• Measured ultra sonic velocities and low frequency velocities calculated from strain measurements. (E, ʋ)
• Three different orientations in each expirement to calculate the stiffness tensor elements and anisotropy parameters.

Conclusion
Sensitivity to saturation at angles higher than 20
Higher affect of anisotropy with higher saturation
Dimming reflectivity with increasing saturation for angles higher than 20
Lack of saturation trend for low saturations until ~S=55%
The higher the frequency the brighter the reflectivity at low angles and the dimmer it gets at higher angles
At higher saturations, larger separations between zero intercepts of the different frequencies
Small influence of cracks at angles higher than 30
