Abstract: Borehole images can be corrected using machine-learning models. For example, a system can train a machine-learning model based on a training dataset. The training dataset can include a first set of borehole images correlated to a second set of borehole images, where the second set of borehole images are less precise versions of the first set of borehole images. The system can then execute the trained machine-learning model in relation to an input borehole image to receive a corrected borehole image as output from the trained machine-learning model. The corrected borehole image can be a visually corrected version of the input borehole image. The system may then perform one or more operations based on the corrected borehole image, such as generating a graphical user interface that includes the corrected borehole image for display on a display device.

Abstract: A geosignal is calculated based on a signal detected by a multicomponent resistivity tool (101) to facilitate determination of formation properties and infer location of the resistivity tool with respect to formation boundaries. The resistivity tool (101) detects an electromagnetic field response signal (109) at a series of azimuth angles (111) during one tool rotation. The signal measured at each azimuth angle is decoupled to obtain nonzero electromagnetic field tensor components for input into the geosignal calculation. The results of the geosignal calculation for at least a top bin (i.e., an azimuth angle of 360 degrees) and a bottom bin (i.e., an azimuth angle of 180 degrees) are evaluated to determine whether the tool (101) is near a formation boundary. If the tool is determined to be near a formation boundary, the resistivity of the layers of the formation on each side of the detected boundary can be inferred.

Abstract: A system can calibrate inconsistencies in a wellbore tool. The system can receive a first set of measurements and a second set of measurements with respect to different electromagnetic antennas. The system can decouple a first multi-components tensor corresponding to the first set of measurements and a second multi-components tensor corresponding to the second set of measurements.

The system can apply the scaling factor to a raw measurement received with respect to an electromagnetic antenna of the wellbore tool positioned in a wellbore to decouple a third multi-components tensor or to decoupled components of a fourth multi-components tensor for controlling a wellbore operation.

Abstract: System and methods for geosteering inversion are provided. Downhole tool responses are predicted for different points along a planned path of a wellbore during a downhole operation, based on each of a plurality of inversion models. Measurements of the downhole tool's actual responses are obtained as the wellbore is drilled over the different points during a current stage of the operation. The inversion models are then clustered using a weighted clustering approached in which a weighted score system is formulated to apply a standard deviation, number of models, and/or misfit of each cluster as key parameters, and used to evaluate the clusters accordingly. The corresponding scores are computed and used to select clusters. The planned wellbore path is adjusted for the subsequent stage(s) of the downhole operation.
