Abstract
A well-log display ( ) having a principle axis ( ) matched to a deviation of a section of a well-bore ( ) is disclosed. By presenting a well-log ( ) at about the same angle as the section of the well-bore under consideration, a person viewing the well-log ( ) will have the advantage of easily visualizing the inclination of the well-bore ( ) to aid in geo-steering, proper interpretation of well-bore measurements, etc. Such a well-log ( ) may be presented as a hardcopy or as an interactive display on a computer screen ( ). A presentation ( ) of a well-log ( ) may include more than just the log itself, for example, a reference diagram ( ) of the entire well highlighting ( ) or otherwise indicating the part of the well currently being displayed in the well-log.
