Abstract
A well-log display (160) having a principle axis (135) matched to a deviation of a section of a well-bore (450) is disclosed. By presenting a well-log (160) at about the same angle as the section of the well-bore under consideration, a person viewing the well-log (160) will have the advantage of easily visualizing the inclination of the well-bore (450) to aid in geo-steering, proper interpretation of well-bore measurements, etc. Such a well-log (160) may be presented as a hardcopy or as an interactive display on a computer screen (642). A presentation (100, 200) of a well-log (160) may include more than just the log itself, for example, a reference diagram (100, 200) of the entire well highlighting (130) or otherwise indicating the part of the well currently being displayed in the well-log.
