Abstract

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.
