Approximate Effects of Off-Center Acoustic Sondes and Elliptic Boreholes Upon Full Waveform Logs

Full waveform acoustic well logging has become instrumental to hydrocarbon exploration because of its ability to determine in situ velocity information for P and S waves as well as the attenuation (or absorption) of seismic energy. It is therefore important that the factors infuencing these logs be...
