Abstract
An acoustic logging system identifies hydrocarbon formation types by a real-time model-constrained mud wave slowness determination method using borehole guided waves. The system also combines data processing from different acoustic waveform processing techniques using an information sharing procedure, for example, using monopole source data and dipole source data, to further improve the processing results and to achieve more stable and reliable real-time shear slowness answers.
