Abstract

A logging method and a logging tool for approximating a logging tool response in a layered formation are provided. The method includes obtaining a first layered profile of at least one first measurement log provided by a logging tool using a squaring process, obtaining a filtered measurement log from the first layered profile using a forward physical model for the logging tool, and estimating an approximation of the forward physical model using a parameterized function so as to provide a first logging tool response.
