Permeability estimates from acoustic logs (Stoneley waves) and NMR logs were compared
using data from a geologic section consisting of sandstone and shale beds. The
permeability results show very good correlation for these two different methods. Data
from a gas-bearing zone shows high permeability values from acoustic data and low
values from NMR. The difference between these two permeability results can be used
as a gas zone indicator.
