Methods and apparatus for simultaneous compressional, shear and Stoneley
logging
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are described for simultaneously acquiring time-domain (e.g., compressional) and frequency-domain (e.g., monopole Stoneley and/or dipole shear) borehole logs which are separated by frequency filtering. Monopole (Stoneley) data and dipole (shear) data are acquired simultaneously using discrete-frequency sonic emission, preferably at distinct frequencies to avoid cross-mode interference. A preferred embodiment combines discrete-frequency dipole sonic emission at low frequency (up to 5 kHz) to log formation shear wave, high frequency (5 to 30 kHz) time-domain monopole emission with first-motion detection to log formation compressional wave, and discrete-frequency monopole emission at low frequency (below 5 kHz) to log borehole Stoneley wave. The measurements of compressional, shear and Stoneley can be transmitted uphole using a small telemetry bandwidth. Benefits include higher logging speed, acquisition of all three measurements in a single logging run, real-time acquisition and processing of the three measurements, and a reduced telemetry load which allows a tool making the three measurements to be combined with other logging tools.
