Abstract

Surface equipment of a cement analysis system (CAS) estimates a first drilling fluid slowness (FSLO) and a first drilling fluid acoustic impedance (ZMUD) based on a type and density of wellbore drilling fluid. A second FSLO is estimated based on a thickness and diameter of wellbore casing and transit time for energy emitted by a downhole tool to travel to and from the casing. An FSLO graphical interface is generated based on the first and second FSLO. A second ZMUD is estimated based on the drilling fluid type and density and one of the first and second FSLO selected utilizing the FSLO graphical interface. A ZMUD graphical interface is generated based on the first and second ZMUD. The downhole tool then obtains log data utilizing at least one parameter selected utilizing the ZMUD graphical interface. The log data includes a final ZMUD measured with respect to wellbore depth.
