Claim 15:
16. A method, comprising
assembling a logging tool for measuring a pressure within a portion of a wellbore, wherein the logging tool comprises one or more sensors and one or more packers;
positioning the logging tool into the portion of the wellbore, wherein the one or more packers are positioned in a section of a geological formation associated with the portion of the wellbore;
purging air from the logging tool;
performing a pressure meter test on the section of the geological formation, wherein the pressure meter test comprises:
performing a series of inflation and deflation cycles within the section of the geological formation; and
receiving a plurality of pressure and volume measurements associated with the section of the geological formation from the one or more sensors during the series of inflation and deflation cycles;

calculating a geological stiffness factor based on the plurality of pressure and volume measurements; and
estimating an elastic shear modulus based on the calculated geological stiffness factor.
