Numerical calculation for the distance to target center in directional and horizontal wells

The calculation of the distance to target center is important in the trajectory quality inspection, and its core is to solve the coordinate of the entry point to targets. The entry point is a cross point of trajectory and a spatial plane: in directional wells, this plane is the horizontal plane; in...
