Further discussion on attenuation and dispersion of electromagnetic wave propagation in fluid‐saturated porous rocks and applications to dielectric‐constant well logging

This paper presents a more detailed analysis of some basic problems of electromagnetic wave propagation through a porous medium saturated with fluid, associated directly with quantitative interpretation of dielectric constant logging. The advantages and disadvantages of a new approach, in which fluid‐saturated porous rock is considered as a two‐phase system, are discussed and compared with those obtained from the single‐phase model. It is shown that the two‐phase model may provide a better interpretation of dielectric constant logging.
