circulating at least a portion of the fresh water volume and the brine volume through a first line from a circulating sub to a bottom outlet;

creating a suction in a dual packer interval from an upper inlet into a secondary flowline;

replacing at least a portion of fluid from the dual packer interval with the portion of the fresh water volume and the brine volume;

taking fluid from the dual packer interval;

determining whether the fluid taken from the dual packer interval is clean;

in response to a determination that the fluid taken from the dual packer interval is clean, operating a pump powered by an onboard power module to inject at least a portion of the fluid from the downhole apparatus into a geological stratum at the desired station depth, the onboard power module being included in the downhole apparatus and in electrical communication with the cable;

performing a second geological stratum test at the desired station depth; and

determining a change from the first geological stratum test to the second geological stratum test.

10. The process according to claim 9 , wherein the dual packer comprises at least a first packer and a second packer longitudinally spaced apart from one another on the downhole apparatus, and wherein, once set, the first packer and the second packer provide a sealed volume therebetween.

11. The process according to claim 9 , wherein the downhole apparatus is a wireline apparatus.

12. The process according to claim 9 , where a volume of the fluid injected into the geological stratum is at least 23 L.

13. The process according to claim 9 , wherein the fluid is a liquid.

14. The process according to claim 9 , wherein the pump is a first pump and the at least a portion of the fluid is injected with a second pump located at a surface of the earth.

15. The process according to claim 9 , wherein the pump is onboard the downhole apparatus.

16. The process according to claim 9 , wherein the fluid comprises at least one of an acid, a proppant, an emulsifier, one or more hydrocarbons, a surfactant, or a tracer.

17. The process according to claim 9 , wherein the fluid further comprises a gas.
