Abstract

A method for producing synthetic tool responses for a well logging tool for an earth formation, the method including, in one aspect, generating wellbore logging data for a particular part of an earth formation with a wellbore logging system with a wellbore logging tool, the earth formation having at least one layer, producing an input earth model of the particular part of the earth formation based on the wellbore logging data, inputting the input earth model to a trained artificial neural network, e.g. resident in a computer, the computer with the trained artificial neural network processing the input earth model and producing synthetic tool responses for the wellbore logging tool for one point or for a plurality of points in the earth formation.
