ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for acoustically logging of a borehole wherein a beam of ultrasonic energy is transmitted from the borehole to the formation to produce substantially only shear waves in the formation. The shear waves are received at a position spaced from the point at which the acoustical waves were generated. The system includes means to measure the time required for the shear waves to travel from the transmitting point to the receiving point and/or the reduction in amplitude of the received shear waves.
