Abstract
Methods and systems for controlling a drilling operation in a subterranean formation are disclosed. The method includes generating a simulated well log based, at least in part, on a subset of an MWD log from a horizontal well, wherein the subset of the MWD log is for measured depths between a starting measured depth and an ending measured depth. The method further includes monitoring and/or controlling a drilling operation based, at least in part, on the simulated well log.
