Abstract
The present disclosure relates to determining a location of a noise source where the location includes azimuth information and determining cement-bond integrity. A downhole tool disposed in a borehole may comprise one or more receivers (such as a monopole receiver and any one or more of one or more multi-pole receivers) and in certain embodiments one or more transmitters that fire one or more shots may provide azimuthal estimate of the location of a noise source, a location of a leak in one or more layers of a casing, cement-bond integrity any combination thereof based, at least in part, on one or more measurements or data for received signals at any one or more receivers. Accurate and efficient identification of a leak or integrity of a cement-bond reduces overall inefficiencies and costs associated with a downhole operation.
