An inflatable drill-string packer was used to measure the in-situ bulk permeability of two zones within the 571 m of 7.3-m.y.-old crustal section overlain by 93 m of sediment in Hole 395A. Downhole temperatures (Becker et al., 1984; Kopietz et al., this volume) indicate that the upper 200-250 m of basalt (to a depth of about 350 m below seafloor, or mbsf) is quite permeable, about 10_14-10-13 m2. During Leg 78B, Hickman et al. (1984a) measured a very low permeability for the section 583-664 mbsf, about 10~I8-1(T17 m2. During Leg 109, the packer was inflated first at 396 mbsf, isolating the section 396-606 mbsf with good results, and then at 516 mbsf, isolating the section 516-606 mbsf with some leakage past the packer and poor results. At both depths, standard slug tests and constant-rate injection tests were conducted. The results indicate that the bulk permeability of the section 396-606 mbsf is on the order of 10~ 14 m2. Thus, with the exception of the impermeable zone measured by Hickman et al. (1984a), most of the basement section cored in Hole 395A is quite permeable, and would support active hydrogeological processes such as those modeled by Langseth et al. (1984).
