Abstract: A method is provided for processing sensor data associated with a formation. The sensor data is obtained and divided into a plurality of voxels in a three-dimensional environment. Each voxel corresponds to a location in the formation surrounding a wellbore. A selection of a first point in the three-dimensional environment corresponding to a first position along the wellbore is received. A selection of a first two-dimensional shape intersecting the first point is received. A selection of a second point corresponding to a second position different from the first position along the wellbore is received. A three-dimensional volume containing a subset of the plurality of voxels of sensor data is generated. The three-dimensional volume is bound at least by the first point and the first two-dimensional shape at a first end and by the second point at a second end. The generated three-dimensional volume is rendered for output on a display.

Abstract: The disclosure presents processes to generate look ahead data to guide borehole operations, such as drilling operations. The processes can array collected resistivity data around a representation of an active borehole. The array can be in various patterns, such as an interleaved helix pattern. Each slice of data from the collected resistivity data can be positioned and oriented corresponding to the central point depth parameter for each slice of data. A selection of one or more card views can be enabled to display details of the collected resistivity data corresponding to the selected slice of data. An analysis of the resistivity data can generate an identification of a boundary, such as an object or a subterranean formation change, in the subterranean formation look ahead portion of the active borehole. The boundary identification can be used as inputs to a borehole operation plan or to a geo-steering system.

Abstract: A method is provided for processing resistivity data associated with a formation. The resistivity data relating to the formation proximate to a wellbore is obtained. The resistivity data is divided in to a preconfigured plurality of bins, wherein the resistivity data associated with each bin is measured in the direction or the range of directions corresponding to the bin. A rose diagram is generated for a portion of the resistivity data associated with a measured depth of the wellbore. The rose diagram includes a circle divided into a plurality of sectors, wherein each sector corresponds to a bin. Each sector visually represents the resistivity data relating to the formation in a direction or range of directions from the wellbore corresponding to the bin. The generated rose diagram is rendered for display. The rendered rose diagram displays the resistivity data in a cross-section perpendicular to the wellbore at the corresponding measured depth.
