(FMS/DSI-2) tool string provides both resistivity images                                                Dipole Shear Sonic Tool
and acoustic data from an open, fluid-filled borehole. The
FMS consists of four orthogonal imaging pads, each
containing 16 microelectrodes which are in direct contact
with the borehole wall during the recording of data. The
button current intensity is sampled every 0.1 in (2.5 mm).                                              DSI-2
                                                                                                        Transmitter-Receiver Section
The tool emits a focused current from the four pads into
the formation, and produces oriented, two-dimensional,
high resolution images of the variations in microresistivity
around the borehole wall. The DSI-2 can acquire a wide
array of acoustic data which are determined by transmitter                                12.81m
firing sequences. The DSI-2 is a multi-receiver tool with a
linear array of eight receiver stations, a monopole                                         10.3m
transmitter and two dipole transmitters. The receiver array                        Detector 9.92m       NGT-C
