    Abstract: An embodiment of a method of estimating characteristics of an earth formation includes: disposing an acoustic tool in a borehole in an earth formation, the acoustic tool including an acoustic multipole transmitter and at least one multipole acoustic receiver; transmitting acoustic signals into the borehole, the acoustic signals generating at least one acoustic body wave that radiates away from the borehole into a far-field formation region; measuring reflected signals including body waves reflected from reflective boundaries in the far-field formation region; identifying a reflective boundary in the formation and reflection attributes associated with the reflective boundary; and estimating at least one of a thickness, distance and a lateral extent of a hydrocarbon formation feature based on the reflected signals and the reflection attributes.

    Abstract: A method of estimating fractures in an earth formation includes: disposing an acoustic tool in a cased borehole in an earth formation, the acoustic tool including a multipole acoustic transmitter and an acoustic receiver; transmitting an acoustic signal into the borehole; measuring deep shear wave (DSW) signals generated from shear body waves reflected in the formation in a far-field region of the formation around the borehole; and estimating at least a location and an orientation of a fracture in the formation based on the DSW signals.

    Abstract: A radial shear velocity profile of an earth formation is obtained by using dipole and/or cross-dipole measurements. The non-uniqueness in the inversion is addressed by using a constraint based on the fact that high-frequency dipole shear waves are mostly sensitive to the near-borehole shear velocity.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method implemented by a processor for imaging a formation penetrated by a borehole. The method includes: obtaining acoustic data in a depth-time domain using an acoustic downhole tool disposed at a depth in the borehole, the acoustic downhole tool having an acoustic source and an acoustic receiver; transforming the acoustic data in the depth-time domain into a Radon domain using a Radon transform; filtering the acoustic data in the Radon domain to increase a signal of interest in the acoustic data in the Radon domain; determining a location of a point in the formation that reflected acoustic energy emitted from the acoustic source to the acoustic receiver, the location of the point being represented in the Radon domain; and inverting the location of the point represented in the Radon domain into a radius-depth domain to image the formation.
