Aspects of the present disclosure relate generally to analyzing subterranean cylindrical structures using acoustic sensing. On example includes: sending first acoustic waves in the wellbore via a radial acoustic sensor; receiving first reflection waves associated with the first acoustic waves via the radial acoustic sensor; sending second acoustic waves in the wellbore via the radial acoustic sensor; receiving second reflection waves associated with the second acoustic waves via the radial acoustic sensor; processing recorded data associated with the first acoustic waves, the first reflection waves, the second acoustic waves, and the second reflection waves, wherein the first acoustic waves are associated with a first radial direction, and wherein the second acoustic waves are associated with a second radial direction, the second radial direction being opposite the first radial direction; and generating a plot for identification of one or more isolation regions in the wellbore based on the processing.
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for isolation detection. In one implementation, a radial acoustic log is obtained. The radial acoustic log is captured using a radial sensor of an acoustic logging tool deployed within a first structure. The first structure disposed within a second structure in a subterranean environment. A radial symmetry is determined using the radial acoustic log. An eccentricity of the first structure relative to the second structure is determined based on the radial symmetry.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ANALYZING CASING BONDING IN A WELL USING ULTRASOUND VELOCITY FILTERING
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for isolation detection. In one implementation, an axial acoustic signal is obtained. The axial acoustic signal is captured using an axial sensor deployed in a structure in a subterranean surface. The axial acoustic signal is separated into a first wave region and a second wave region by applying velocity filtering. An axial symmetry of a portion of the structure is determined based on at least one of the first wave region or the second wave region.
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for isolation detection. In one implementation, an acoustic signal is obtained. The acoustic signal is captured at a set of acoustic receivers deployed in a structure in a subterranean surface. A differential acoustic signal is produced from the acoustic signal captured at the set of acoustic receivers. A symmetry within a portion of the structure is determined based on a value of the differential acoustic signal. At least one isolation region is detected within the structure based on the symmetry.

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for isolation detection. In one implementation, recorded data is obtained. The recorded data includes radial acoustic waves transmitted and received using a radial sensor of an acoustic logging tool deployed in a wellbore. Clockwise waves are separated from counterclockwise waves by converting the recorded data from a time domain to a frequency domain. The clockwise waves are shifted into shifted clockwise waves, and the counterclockwise waves are shifted into a shifted counterclockwise waves. A forward wave is generated by combining the shifted clockwise waves, and a reflected wave is generated by combining the shifted counterclockwise waves. One or more isolation regions are identified in the wellbore using the forward wave and the reflected wave.
