Abstract
Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and computer readable media for determining permeability anisotropy of a formation. A formation tester can be set at a location within a wellbore. A plurality of probes can be set into a formation at the location. A tracer solution can be injected into the formation. A fluid can be continuously withdrawn from the formation over a time interval through at least one of the plurality of probes. The fluid can comprise a volume of the tracer solution into the formation. A changing concentration of the tracer solution that is withdrawn from the formation over the time interval can be measured based on the volume of the tracer solution that is withdrawn from the formation over the time interval. A permeability anisotropy of the formation can be determined based on the changing concentration of the tracer solution.
