Abstract:
Methods, computer-readable media, and systems are disclosed for applying 1D processing in a non-1D formation. In some embodiments, a 3D model or curtain section of a subsurface earth formation may be obtained. A processing window within the 3D model or curtain that is suitable for 1D inversion processing is determined, and a local 1D model for the processing window is built. A 1D inversion is performed on the local 1D model, and inverted formation parameters are used to update the 3D model or curtain section.
Abstract:
A method for transforming a 2D or 3D earth volume geometry into a 1D earth volume geometry includes performing a measurement using the measurement sensor in a wellbore. A layer boundary in the 2D or 3D earth volume geometry that is nearest to the measurement sensor is identified. A vector from the measurement sensor is generated toward the nearest layer boundary. A first intersection is identified between the vector and the nearest layer boundary, and a second intersection is identified between the vector and another layer boundary. Simulated boundaries that extend through the first and second intersections and are perpendicular to the vector are generated. The 1D earth volume geometry that is bounded by the first and second intersections is identified. A property value is extracted from the 2D or 3D earth volume geometry between the first and second intersections. The property value is assigned to the 1D earth geometry.
