Short summary
Fold parameters such as fold axis, axial plane, interlimb angle, and their depth are very useful for geological and structural geological interpretation. In this paper, we report on a simple method to evaluate fold parameters from borehole image logs. The method is validated using a simulated fold model to test its practical limitations. The results suggest that the fold parameters derived by the proposed method are sufficient for practical interpretation.
