Interval transit time for receiver array (DTRS) |
This is an abbreviation for a well log used in the oil and gas industry. The code DTRS is a unique identifier to recognize this particular log and can be found in any (ASCII) log files provided by the logging company. Interval transit time for receiver array is the offical name for this log. Usage of this log is not high and encountering it is a rare occasion. Use this log to investigate the time it takes for a compressional wave to traverse a fixed distance; reciprocal of Compressional Velocity. At a more general level these values are measures of the interval transit time (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:
