The disclosure presents processes that utilize collected resistivity data, for example, from an ultra-deep resistivity tool located downhole a borehole. In some aspects, each slice of resistivity data can generate multiple distribution curves that can be overlaid offset resistivity logs. In some aspects, an analysis can be performed to identify trends in the distribution curves that can be used to identify approximate locations of subterranean formation surfaces, shoulder beds, obstacles, proximate boreholes, and other borehole and geological characteristics. As the number of distribution curves generated increase, the confidence in the analysis also increases. In some aspects, the number of distribution curves can be twenty, one hundred, one hundred and one, or other counts of distribution curves. In some aspects, the resistivity data can be used to generate two or more synchronized view perspectives of a specific location along the borehole, where each view perspective uses the same focus area.

Correlating true vertical depths for a measured depth

Processes utilize collected resistivity data from an ultra-deep resistivity tool located downhole a borehole. A machine learning system (MLS) can be utilized to analyze and process the resistivity data. Directions can be generated using the resistivity data that is communicated to other systems, such as a geo-steering, an evaluation, or other borehole systems. In some aspects, a recommendation can be generated that includes subterranean formation characteristics with the directions. The recommendation can be used by a user system to approve or reject the directions prior to being communicated to a borehole system or geo-steering system. In some aspects, a confidence level can be generated with the directions or recommendation, and the confidence level can be evaluated whether it satisfies a confidence level threshold. In some aspects, when the confidence level threshold is satisfied, the directions can be automatically communicated to the geo-steering system without user review.
