Description

In this article, the data source example is using well data from Landmark OpenWorks

1. How does OpenSpirit use OpenWorks data to create the wellpaths? Which 
tables/attributes are being used?

2. What happens if there is no position log?

 

Issue/Introduction

This article explains what criteria OpenSpirit uses to create wellpaths and position logs using compatible data source data (e.g. OpenWorks)

Environment

Linux & Windows

Resolution

1. OSP commentary - The OpenWorks data connector retrieves the x-offset, y-offset, tvd, and md arrays from the position log table and computes the well path xyz values from the offsets and tvd arrays.  We use the elevation from the well header table and the surface location from the well location table.

2. OSP commentary - If there is no Position Log, OSP will create a two point well path using the elevation and well bottom 
location.  If there is no well bottom location, a vertical two point well path will be computed using the elevation and the total depth.
If there is no position log, our data selector should only show two points for the Path column (under the Well Details tab).
