Abstract
Apparatus, methods, and systems for determining body wave slowness values for a target formation zone. A method includes selecting a target axial resolution based on the size of a receiver array, obtaining a plurality of waveform data sets corresponding to a target formation zone and each acquired at a different shot position, reconstructing the plurality of waveform data sets to generate a plurality of subarray data sets corresponding to the target formation zone, determining a slowness value for each subarray data set and determining a slowness versus offset value for each subarray data set. The method may also include generating a borehole model having at least one alteration formation zone and a virgin formation zone and generating a slowness versus offset model based at least in part on the borehole model. The method may also include determining a radial depth of the alteration formation zone.
