    摘要: A method is disclosed that may include separating modes in a plurality of coherent time-domain signals to form a plurality of separated modes, generating frequency coherence information for each of the plurality of separated modes, and combining the frequency coherence information for each of the plurality of separated modes to form combined frequency coherence information. An apparatus and system may include a processor and a storage device that can be encoded with computer-readable instructions, wherein the instructions when read and executed by the processor may include activities such as separating modes in a plurality of coherent time-domain signals, and recombining the modes in a frequency domain.

    摘要: Multimodal geosteering systems and methods are disclosed. Some disclosed tool embodiments include first and second transmitter-receiver arrangements that make geosteering measurements using different forms of energy (such as acoustic and electromagnetic energy) to provide geosteering measurements that at least indicate a boundary direction but may also indicate a boundary distance. Some disclosed method embodiments include: determining a direction to a bed boundary using measurements with different energy types; and adjusting a drilling direction based at least in part on said determination. Combinations of (or selections between) the different measurements may be made based on, inter alia, measurement range, resolution, and contrast. Some disclosed system embodiments include a memory and a processor. The memory stores geosteering display software that configures the processor to generate an image with different regions based on the different types of geosteering measurements. Characteristics such as opacity, resolution, and intensity may visually distinguish the different regions.
