1. A method for locating planned markers within a log containing borehole data, comprising:
- parsing log data to locate an uncertainty region for a planned marker;
locating a fingerprint match for the planned marker in the located uncertainty region;
saving the located fingerprint match;
determining if additional planned markers are present; and
returning to the step of parsing for a next planned marker if the additional planned markers are present.

Abstract
A method for locating planned markers within a log containing borehole data parses log data to locate an uncertainty region for a planned marker. A fingerprint match is located for the planned marker in the located uncertainty region. The located fingerprint match is saved. A determination is made if additional planned markers are present and returns to the step of parsing for a next planned marker if additional planned markers are present.

10. A method for locating planned markers within a log containing borehole data, comprising:
-
(a) parsing log data to locate an uncertainty region for a planned marker of a plurality of planned markers; (b) assigning a weighted value to the planned marker for the located uncertainty region; (c) generating a fingerprint of a current window in the located uncertainty region; (d) comparing the generated fingerprint with a fingerprint of the planned marker; (e) determining whether the generated fingerprint is a candidate for the fingerprint match for the planned marker; (f) repeating steps (c)-(e) for each window in the located uncertainty region; and (g) selecting a fingerprint marker for the planned marker from each of the determined candidates for the fingerprint match for the planned marker; (h) saving the located fingerprint match; (i) determining if additional planned markers are present; and (j) returning to the step (a) for a next planned marker if the additional planned markers are present. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
