Abstract

Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for creating artificial real-time gamma ray (GR) images for well placement. Real-time azimuthal density data is determined from drilling of a well. An azimuthal density data set is generated using the real-time azimuthal density data. The azimuthal density data set is generated with a greater sampling rate than a real-time sampling rate of the real-time azimuthal density data. An azimuthal density curve depth match is performed using the azimuthal density data set. Performing the azimuthal density curve depth match includes creating a depth shift match table. A high-resolution sector near-bit gamma ray (GR) image is generated using the azimuthal density curve depth match and the depth shift match table. The high-resolution sector near-bit GR image is oriented to a top of a wellbore for the well.
