Abstract
Examples of techniques for generating a high-resolution lithology model for subsurface formation evaluation are disclosed. In one example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method includes determining, by a processing device, a low-resolution lithology volumetric model. The method further includes comparing, by the processing device, the low-resolution lithology volumetric model to a high-resolution imaging log. The method further includes calculating, by the processing device, a dynamic boundary curve for each of a plurality of moving windows. The method further includes generating, by the processing device, the high-resolution lithology model based at least in part on the calculated dynamic boundary curve for each of the plurality of moving windows. The method further includes controlling a drilling operation based at least in part on the high-resolution lithology model.
