Abstract
The disclosed embodiments include methods to perform an in-situ determination of a formation property of a downhole formation, methods to operate a tool to perform an in-situ determination of formation properties of a downhole formation, and in-situ formation property measurement tools. In one embodiment, a method to perform an in-situ determination of a formation property includes deploying a tool into a borehole that is drilled through a formation. The method also includes isolating a source zone from an injection zone. While the source zone is isolated from the injection zone, the method further includes withdrawing a fluid that partially fills the source zone; flowing the fluid into the injection zone; injecting the fluid into a first portion of the formation that is along the injection zone; and determining at least one formation property of the first portion based on an injection of the fluid into the first portion.
