Abstract
Measuring the electrical field induced by a borehole Stoneley wave is a new method for
characterizing a rock formation around a borehole. Our field measurements demonstrate
that the Stoneley-wave-induced electrical field can be detected in sedimentary rocks
(dolomite in our experiment), and that the amplitude of this electroseismic phenomenon
can be used to detect isolated fractures and permeable zones.
