<p>The acoustic sounding method is a well-known technique for taking distance measurements of fluids and objects, especially in an oil well or other borehole. The method involves making a loud bang sound and recording and analyzing the echoes generated as a result. One device used to make the bang sound for the acoustic sounding method is an acoustic gun. The echoes are then recieved by a transducer for recording the sound, which is analyzed by a separate surveyor unit. The acoustic gun is used at or near the wellhead of the borehole. The current invention is a vastly improved surveyor unit with unique attributes for analyzing echo information and data retrieved from wide array of acoustic guns used in the application of the acoustic sounding method.</p> |
