Full waveform

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001593

The complete acoustic signal recorded by a sonic logging tool, capturing the amplitude and travel time of compressional, shear, and Stoneley waves. This detailed recording provides more information than just the first arrival time. Analysis of the full waveform provides insights into rock mechanical properties, porosity, and fracture detection.
