English term or phrase: packoff
Packoff of cement washout may be detected by measuring or detecting diminishment of the acoustic frequency peak, for example to below a predetermined threshold level or fraction of the peak strength of the acoustic frequency peak.

Pack off is a scenario whereby too much proppant enters a given fracture cluster, to the extent that a particular fracture channel becomes completely blocked with an excessive amount of proppant. Such a situation can arise when a given cluster initially fractures well, and thus readily takes additional fracture fluid, but thereafter fails to continue to fracture, possibly due to variations in the structural strength of the local formation.
