The XMAC service delta-T, full-wave monopole, and cross-dipole waveforms are acquired simultaneously in a single logging run at 30 ft/min (9.14 m/min). This reduces rig time while providing all of the acoustic data needed for a full range of answers, including Stoneley slowness and permeability index, azimuthally anisotropy, TI anisotropy, thin-bed analysis, and rock mechanical properties.

Applications:

  • Analyze anisotropy
  • Determine rock mechanical properties
  • Perform structural imaging
  • Conduct petrophysical evaluations
  • Gather thin-bed analyses

Features and benefits:

  • Acquisition of all waveforms simultaneously at a logging speed of 30 ft/min
  • Reduces rig time during cross-dipole data acquisition
  • Acquisition of inline shear and compressional data at a logging speed of 45 ft/min (13.71 m/min)
  • High-powered broadband dipole transmitters with superior low-frequency content
  • Provides high-quality shear data that eliminate the need for dispersion correction
