For seven NX sized borehole models constructed from physical property data for representative geology in Korea, dispersion curves were derived and compared between models having different physical parameters. By comparing and analyzing the dispersion curves obtained from different sources (monopole and dipole) and different borehole sizes (76 mm and 150 mm), dispersion characteristics in sonic log could be understood better, particularly in the case of slim hole sonic log.
