USBA

The Acoustic Borehole Logging Equipment –USBA, a new generation of acoustic borehole logging tools, which allows full acoustic waveform analysis and logging in cased and open well bores. The multipol acoustic log service is a full wave monopole, dipole and quadropol logging service. The 8-segment cement bond tool allows the high resolution detection of bad binding channels in the cementation.

USBA – Segment (SCBL)

The USBA-Segment incorporates two high power transmitters and one group of 4 piezo ceramic receivers. This logging tool measures the cement binding (cement – casing and cement – formation) in 8 angular segments around the casing. The USBA SCBL gives you full wave form logs in 8 channels to determine the cementation in 8 segments. Per each segment the full wave for the amplitude and the arrival time will be logged.

Applications

  • Provide quantitative analysis of cement bond to the casing in 8 segments and formation
  • Provide 360° cement bonding evaluationn
  • Identify intervals of uniform bonding and detect channels lacking cement

USBA – Multipole (MAL)

The USBA-Multipole incorporates two high power transmitters and one group of 4 piezo ceramic receivers, improving data quality in both openhole and through-casing applications. The MAL raw data are processed to obtain wave-form amplitude, slowness and arrival time. These data are incorporated into advanced log analysis programs to evaluate fractures and lithology, fluid contact and rock properties. This logging tool allows a full wave monopole, dipole and cross dipole logging service, ensuring the complete acquisition of quality compressional (Pwave), shear (S-wave) and stonley-wave in a single logging pass.

Applications

  • Porosity, lithology and permeability determination
  • Determine distribution of rock mechanical properties
  • Predict orientation of natural fractures
  • Estimate relative permeability
  • Determine formation strength parameters using compressional and shear wave travel times
  • Through casing acquisition of shearwave(S-wave), compressionalwave (P-wave) and stonleywave data

USBA-Combination (SCBL and MAL)

This tool integrates the Segmented Cement Bond Tool and the Multipole Acoustic Log Tool.
