Acoustic well logging device for detecting shear and compressional waves
Patent
·
OSTI ID:5885301
Novel acoustic logging tools are disclosed for logging unconsolidated formations. These tools include point force shear wave, and multidirectional compressional wave transmitters. A plurality of receivers with sensitivities matched to these transmitter types are provided for selectively gathering P wave and S wave information. The transmitters and receivers are located, sequenced and gated to ensure that high quality wave data is rapidly and reliably collected.
