Rock Properties of Miocene Carbonates

This report mainly summarizes the rock properties of Miocene carbonate from Miri, Sarawak. This project aims to study the behavior of acoustic velocity of Miocene carbonates with relation to the porosity and permeability. This report also tells the literature review of the rock properties such as th...
