If I have sonic and bulk density log data for a zone of interest, can I use ROCKSBank to estimate static rock mechanical properties?
Yes. If no local core data are available or you do not have sufficient time or budget to conduct a laboratory testing program then ROCKSBank can help you find a suitable predictive relationship to estimate such static rock mechanical properties as Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio and unconfined compressive strength (UCS). You can also estimate these properties by using one of several relationships developed for other basins around the world. These calibrated relationships can then be applied to other wells at different depths in the same field or region.
