Abstract:
Systems and methods process a measured ultrasonic response waveform to determine a well casing thickness and an acoustic impedance of a sealing medium surrounding the well casing. An array of simulated response waveforms corresponding to a set of candidate acoustic impedances for the sealing medium surrounding the well casing and a set of candidate well casing thicknesses is generated. A simulated response waveform from the array of simulated response waveforms is identified that best matches the measured response waveform so as to determine the sealing medium acoustic impedance.

Claim (Index 17):
The system of  claim 11 , wherein each of the plurality of simulated response waveforms is based on reflection of the ultrasonic signal from an inner surface of the well casing, reflection of the ultrasonic signal from an interface between the well casing and the sealing medium in the annulus, reflection of the ultrasonic signal from at least one other interface between the sealing medium in the annulus and the ground formation surrounding the annulus, and multiple reverberations of the ultrasonic signal within the well casing.
