Ultrasonic well integrity logging using phased array technology
Ultrasonic well integrity logging is an important and common procedure for well completion and plug-and-abandonment operations. Typical logging tools employ single-element ultrasound transducers. In medical ultrasound imaging, however, more flexible phased arrays are the standard. This paper present...

Ultrasonic well integrity logging is an important and common procedure for well completion and plug-and-abandonment operations. Typical logging tools employ single-element ultrasound transducers. In medical ultrasound imaging, however, more flexible phased arrays are the standard. This paper presents a first set of experimental results obtained with up to two linear 32-element phased arrays that are specifically designed for plug-and-abandonment operations in terms of their centre frequency. The experiments encompass pulse-echo and pitch-catch studies for different incidence angles and aperture sizes on plates and pipes with wall thickness as encountered in the offshore industry. The pulse-echo experiment is backed up by simulations, and shows that effect of the incidence angle on the pipe resonance’s frequency and strength is weak and more strong, respectively, and that the effect depends on the frequency response and directivity of the transducer. The pitch-catch experiment demonstrates the importance of carefully choosing the right angle of incidence to excite the intended wave modes.
