Abstract
A method for controlling a drilling trajectory of a wellbore includes receiving a target trajectory reference of a drill bit within a wellbore from a formation model. The method also includes receiving real-time formation evaluation measurements from at least one sensor positioned within the wellbore and computing a target trajectory set-point change based on the real-time formation evaluation measurements. Further, the method includes generating a target trajectory from the target trajectory reference and the target trajectory set-point change and steering the drill bit using the target trajectory.
