Abstract Acoustic wave velocities play essential roles in interpreting seismic and well logging data for their broad applicability in determining rock elastic properties. Many types of research have demonstrated the effects of porosity and clay fraction on acoustic waves, but few have simultaneously studied the effects of effective pressure and water saturation on the same. To quantify the effects of effective pressure and water saturation on acoustic wave velocities, this research conducts a series of ultrasonic wave transmission tests by using shaly sandstones with various porosities (
