Abstract
X-ray attenuation, electrical conductivity, and ultrasonic velocity are reported for a segment of preserved core from SB-15D, 918 ft. X-ray tomography and ultrasonic measurements change as the core dries, providing information regarding handling and disturbance of the core. Electrical conductivity measurements at reservoir conditions indicate that pore fluid properties and pore microstructure control bulkconductivity. These data are useful for calibration and interpretation of field geophysical measurements.
