The document describes GOWell's Acoustic Leak Flow Analyser tool which uses sensitive acoustic sensors to measure sound downhole and detect leaks, flows, and flow zones. It can detect flows through multiple tubulars, distinguish behind pipe flow from inside pipe flow, and is a slim tool allowing deployment through small completions. It measures acoustic data from 235 Hz to 30 kHz and can be used for leak detection, sustained casing pressure diagnosis, perforation location, and identifying behind pipe channels or flow zones.
