Higher Order Modes in Acoustic Logging While Drilling
In multipole acoustic logging while drilling (LWD), the fundamental modes dominate recorded waveforms. Higher order modes may also appear and complicate the processing of LWD data. In dipole LWD measurements, the dipole tool mode is often not well separated from the flexural mode. This makes the she...
