摘要:
Methods and apparatus facilitating radial profiling of shear slowness are disclosed. According to some aspects of the invention, acoustic tool bias is accounted for in the calculation of radial profiles. According so some aspects, acoustic tool bias is accounted for by replacing acoustic tool structure with a resonance-impedance model. The resonance-impedance modeling according to principles of the present invention is applicable to vertical, deviated, and horizontal boreholes.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus facilitating measurement of anisotropy are disclosed. According to some aspects, anisotropy can be determined while drilling. Monopole/quadrupole interactions, as well as monitoring dipole excitations and other methods, may be used to find the principal shear directions of a formation while drilling or during wireline or other operations.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus facilitating radial profiling of shear slowness or shear modulus c66 in the cross-sectional plane of a borehole in an anisotropic formation with the vertical X3-axis are disclosed. According to some aspects of the invention, sonic tool bias is accounted for and removed from radial profiles. According to some aspects, sonic tool bias is accounted for by modeling the sonic tool as a heavy-fluid.
摘要:
A tool generates signals indicative a shear wave slowness of the formation surrounding a borehole. The tool comprises a collar portion adapted for mounting in a drill string, a quadrupole sonic transmitter mounted to the collar portion, and a quadrupole sonic receiver array mounted to the collar spaced apart from the transmitter. A method determines shear wave slowness of the formation. The method includes propagating quadrupole wave energy into the formation and detecting quadrupole dispersive waveform received at a second location. Formation shear wave slowness is calculated using dispersive slowness time coherence processing.

摘要:
An acoustic logging tool sleeve with a preferably discontinuous, alternating structure that is acoustically opaque in some zones, and acoustically transparent in others. The sleeve may be modular, with several stages connected together. The multiple stages provide a sleeve that may be useful with a variety of borehole logging tools to reduce or eliminate the transmission of noise to the receiving elements.
摘要:
The subject disclosure relates to sonic logging while drilling. A transmitter and at least one receiver are mounted on a drill collar for performing sonic investigations of the formation traversing a borehole.
