3Why Multipole? Why SonicScope?
GoalProvide high data quality in real timeDeliver a robust compressional and shear measurement for all
formations, irrespective of mud type
Obtaining reliable compressional and shear providesPore pressure trendsBorehole stability analysisGas detection/saturationAdvanced drilling optimization/fracture gradientAdvanced formation evaluation

8SonicScope 825 Key Technologies 12 levels spaced at 90 degrees, 48 receivers total Industry best 4 inter-receiver spacing, aliasing completely eliminated Signal digitized at the receiver enables faster downhole processing 4 bulkheads vs. 28 for QBAT = stronger collar, simpler acoustic modeling
High power to excite Quadrupole in slow formations Situated close to the receiver section to overcome attenuation
Monopole collar arrival suppressed as low as possible I.D. optimized to separate QP propagation modes Enables Automatic Labeling, STC threshold
Dual Layer Quadrupole Transmitter G42 Receiver Belts
Screw on Centralizers Optimized Attenuation Section
Ensure mode purity Wellsite Changeable Hard Faced

Comparison between SonicScope Realtime, memory data, and Sonic Scannerlog (Monopole only)
Memory data from SonicScope and SonicScanner show excellent agreement
Real Time data quality is as good asmemory mode data
Shear data is available in Real Time fromMonopole only (fast formations)

Comparison between SonicScope 825Real time, memory data, and SonicScanner log (Monopole only)
Monopole data in slow formation will not giveshear if Shear DT > Mud DT
