SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIA FOR DETERMINING SHEAR-WAVE TO COMPRESSIONAL-WAVE VELOCITY RATIOS IN WELL CASINGS

摘要

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for determining shear-wave to compressional-wave velocity ratios in well casings are provided. A logging tool may include one or more acoustic phased arrays, such as one or more transmitter arrays and one or more receiver arrays each having multiple transducer elements. Peak pulse amplitudes may be calculated from received acoustic signals, and the group velocity of the peak mode may be calculated. The peak amplitude from measurements over a suitable incidence angle range may be used to determine the value of the shear-wave to compressional-wave velocity ratio.
