Method for identifying arrival times of waveforms on acoustic borehole well logs

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6109484
A method is described for identifying the arrival times of waveforms on an acoustic borehole well log obtained by running a borehole logging tool having at least one acoustic transmitter and at least one acoustic receiver through a borehole and activating the transmitter at spaced-apart depth points within the borehole so that an acoustic trace is obtained of the transmission of acoustic energy from the transmitter to the receiver through the earth formations surrounding the borehole at each of the depth points.
