Compaction correction factor for sonic logs in shale lithology
Input(s)
\(\Delta t_{s h}\): Adjacent Shale Bed's Transit Time (mu s/ft)
c: Shale Compaction Coefficient (dimensionless)
Output(s)
\(C_{p}\): Compaction Correction Factor (dimensionless)
Formula(s)
\[
C_{p}=\left(\Delta t_{s h}\right) * \frac{c}{100}
\]
