Sonic Velocity/Variable Density

A sonic pulse is fired from a transmitter into the formation and the resulting returns are recorded as waveforms. These waveforms, represented in milliseconds, graphically depict the formation densities.

  • SNC/VDL Sonic Velocity/Variable Density
  • DT Delta Time

Used in correlation with other logs, the Sonic Velocity/Variable Density (SNC/VDL) tool is excellent for rock mechanics, location of regional water tables and detecting fractures. SNC/VDL surveys are logged in mud or water-filled open hole wells.
