Abstract

Methods to perform through tubing cement evaluation using converted multipole resonance modes. A first acoustic transmission is emitted outward toward the cement such that a portion of the first acoustic transmission penetrates the cement. The receiver array detects the first acoustic response derived from the first acoustic transmission. The system then determines the multimode wellbore resonance based on the first acoustic response. In response to the first acoustic transmission penetrating the cement, a first mode of the multimode wellbore resonance is converted into a second mode different from the first mode. The receiver array detects a second acoustic response derived from the converted mode of the multimode wellbore resonance. The system determines the converted mode using the second acoustic response. A property of the cement is evaluated based on the multimode wellbore resonance and the converted mode.
