Peak Slowness - Transmitter Array (S1TA) |
This is an abbreviation for a well log acquired after or during drilling. The acronym S1TA is a unique identifier to recognize this particular log and can be encountered in your log evaluation software or your corporate datastores. The official name for this log is 'Peak Slowness - Transmitter Array'. This log is not used too often in the industry. This log displays readings of the travel time of a wave over a unit distance, hence the reciprocal of wave velocity.This log usually has the unit 'Acoustic Slowness'. This is the time interval per unit length, Delta-T, necessary to attenuate a traveling acoustic wave. Applies to all types of Delta-T: Compressional, Shear and Stoneley. Data for this log is produced by a tool that uses a acoustic logging technique and can be used to investigate the acoustic slowness of the formation. Similar logs are listed below:
