Abstract
Systems and methods for generating synthetic borehole image logs include logging rate of penetration (ROP) data, resistivity data, and gamma ray data while drilling a borehole in a subsurface formation to generate logged data. The generating includes determining an effective dip angle of the subsurface formation along the borehole and generating a depth shift table based on the effective dip angle and a well deviation angle, the well deviation angle being between the borehole and a vertical reference. Datasets are generated based on the ROP data, resistivity data, and gamma ray data, the generated datasets having higher sampling rates than the logged data. Synthetic borehole images are generated based on the generated datasets and the depth shift table, and the synthetic borehole images are oriented with respect to a reference point of the borehole.
