Abstract
A look-ahead logging method includes obtaining an initial resistivity log. The method further includes deriving an initial formation model based on the initial resistivity log. The method further includes estimating deep resistivity measurements from the initial formation model and deriving a reduced-complexity formation model from the estimated deep resistivity measurements. The method further includes collecting actual resistivity measurements and inverting the actual resistivity measurements, using the reduced-complexity formation model, to obtain look-ahead or look-around parameter values. The method further includes displaying the look-ahead or look-around parameter values or storing the look-ahead or look-around parameter values on a non-transient information storage medium.
