摘要： A sonic transmitter assembly for use in logging-while-drilling includes stacks of piezoelectric crystals that extend outwardly from a nodal plate member, and a generally tubular assembly that contains such stacks and has end portions that are sealingly mounted in diametrically opposed holes in a pipe member that forms a pan of the drill string. Spring mass isolator systems are employed to inhibit transmission of acoustic waves to the pipe member. Balanced mounting forces and the bilateral symmetry of the construction also inhibit transmission of acoustic waves to the pipe member, particularly waves which are asymmetric with respect to the longitudinal axis of the pipe member.

摘要： An apparatus for reducing or eliminating the effects of a quadrupole component of an acoustic signal received from a transversely mounted acoustic source in a drill collar of a logging while drilling tool. The apparatus includes a drill collar for supporting a drill bit, a transversely mounted transmitter situated in a first horizontal plane in the drill collar which transmits acoustic energy into an earth formation. The drill collar also houses at least one receiver mounted in a second horizontal plane in the drill collar at an angular displacement from the transmitter such that the effects of a quadrupole component of the acoustic energy detected by the receiver are rendered insignificant.

摘要： A seismic array system for receiving seismic signals at spaced-apart points in a wellbore is deployable on coiled tubing from the surface through an isolator apparatus mounted on the wellhead. The array includes spaced-apart geophone sondes which have hydraulic actuators for extension of sonde support pads into engagement with the wellbore wall. Each sonde has a hydraulic control unit for controlling operation of the hydraulic actuator to extend or retract the pads and for preliminary processing of signals received through the geophones of each sonde. Hydraulic fluid and electrical control signals are communicated through the coiled tubing from the surface. A signal processing unit is deployed at the upper end of the array string for final or intermediate processing of the geophoen signals from each sonde.

摘要： A method and apparatus for inter-well seismic logging include a seismic source capable of being lowered into a first or surce well and a plurality of receiving and/or detecting means capable of being lowered to at least one second or receiving well. Signals generated from the seismic source pass through the earth and are received by the respective receivers. The recorded data is subsequently computer processed to form a profile which represents the geological configuration between the wells. The seismic source having at least one bender arm assembly including two sets of piezoelectric ceramic crystals and, preferably, a reaction mass connected intermediate the ends thereafter generate the seismic signals.

摘要： A method and device are disclosed particularly adapted for seismic prospection in substantially horizontal drains using intermediate frequency acoustic waves for conciliating the range and the power of resolution. In a well is lowered steps-by-steps a transmission-reception assembly comprising at least one probe associated with a guide block but able to be mechanically uncoupled therefrom, and at least one acoustic wave source associated with a guide block. The source is inserted in a rigid column connecting the probe to the surface control device. A delayed connection system makes it possible to connect the probe and the source electrically to a surface control and recording assembly. The source comprises one or more vibrators transmitting in the 200-2000 Hz band for example or a sparker.

摘要： An apparatus and method for the measuring the transverse dimensions of a hole such as in an oil well including a sonde on which an electro-acoustic transducer is mounted in an off centered position in relation to the axis of the sonde. This transducer has two opposite active faces so as to simultaneously transmit acoustic pulses in diametrically opposite directions from the sonde. When the sonde is centered in the hole, the transducer picks up the echoes retransmitted by the wall of the hole in the two directions, at different times. A recording is made of these times and preferably also of an indication of the amplitude of each of these echoes to obtain both a diameter measurement and an indication of the condition of the hole surface. Several transducers are provided, superposed and oriented along various diameters distributed around the axis of the sonde.
