High-Quality Output

• Clear, precise, professional quality printed strip logs.
• Complete header information for the well, the operator, the geologist, cores, DSTs, plan, elevation, etc.
• Easy to reprint or make corrections.
• Export any data from the log.

Industry Standard

WellSight Systems' products are used by:

• most Canadian geological consultants,
• all major oil and gas companies in North America,
• exploration companies throughout the world.

Horizontal Logging Features

What's New in Version 6?

WellSight Systems produced the first strip log drafting tool designed specifically for professional geologists and mud loggers who need to produce informative, professional, color, horizontal well logs. HORIZONTAL.LOG has the same ease-of-use and quality of output as our other products.

• Measured depth runs horizontally, both on the screen and on the printed log.
• Slide/rotate track built-in.
• Enter full survey data including, Measured Depth (MD), True Vertical Depth (TVD), angle, direction, latitude, longitude, vertical section, and dog leg.
• A large Well Bore Cross-Section track representing MD versus TVD contains the following information:

• The TVD scale (vertical exaggeration) can be set to any range and changed at any Measured Depth (similar to the Gas and ROP data curves.)
• Formations surrounding the well bore can be represented in two dimensions by drawing lithology and accessory symbols at any position in MD / TVD.
• Text blocks for sample descriptions, formation tops, trips, etc. can be placed at any position in the track with optional pointers to the appropriate features.
• Important features can be annotated by drawing graphic lines with the mouse.
• Multiple Survey Layers can be plotted representing, e.g., prognosed vs. actual well-bores.

HORIZONTAL.LOG 6 Specs

What's New in Version 6?

Easy User Interface

• WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) - you work directly on the strip log as it will appear when printed.
• Change the depth range or log scale at any time.
• Scroll to any depth or go directly to a specific depth.
• Zoom in or out to see more detail or more of your log.

Log Types

• Use either feet or meters for depth.
• Several depth scales for well logs and core logs.
• Measured Depth logs can be converted to True Vertical Depth.

ROP, Gas, Gamma, and Other Data

• Two or more data curve tracks can display up to 10 data curves each.
• Each curve's name and unit can be customized. For example, you could have ROP (min/ft), Gas (%), and Gamma (API).
• Each curve can be logged at its own data step. For example, ROP and Gas could be logged at 1 M steps, and Gamma could be logged at fifths of meters.
• Enter curve data quickly using a spreadsheet dialog. The data values are plotted as you enter them.
• Import curve data instantly from gas loggers or other sources in LAS 2 or LAS 3 (Log ASCII Standard) or delimited ASCII files.
• Live Data Acquisition (LDA) imports ROP, Gas, and other curve data automatically at regular time intervals from gas detectors or EDR systems.
• Customize each curve's appearance: color, line style, width, filled wrapped areas, etc.
• Change data scales as needed at any depth.

Lithology, Mineral, Fossil, and Other Symbols

• Add and move symbols with a click of the mouse.
• Pre-loaded with a complete set of industry standard symbols, including: major rock types, fossils, minerals, stringers, textures, porosity types, sorting, rounding, oil shows, cores, & DSTs.
• Percent lithology and interpreted lithology tracks.
• Where the supplied symbols do not meet your requirements, you can design and add new symbols.

Geological Descriptions and Engineering Data

• Import or export all geological descriptions in one step - abbreviating or expanding terms automatically.
• Geological descriptions and engineering data can be added and moved to any depth - just double-click where you want the text and start typing.
• Assisted Description Mode allows you to enter descriptions quickly and flexibly based on lithology intervals.
• Use cut, copy, and paste to quickly copy text to or from your word processor.
• Choose from three font sizes.

Porosity and Grain Size

• Set the porosity or grain sizes for one depth or a range of depths with one click and drag of the mouse.
• Set individual grain sizes independently.

Headers

• Built-in Headers include: Well Info, Core, Operator, Comments, DSTs, and Symbol Legends.
• Custom Headers can be added: Plan, Elevation, Symbol Legend, and completely Customized Headers with any text and graphic arrangement.

Surveys

• Survey data can be plotted as a graph: Vertical Section, TVD, etc.
• Survey text can be automatically displayed
• Survey data can be used to convert MD logs to TVD logs

Import Data

• ROP, Gas, or any other curve data in LAS or ASCII
• Surveys
• Geological Descriptions

Export Data

• ROP, Gas, or any other curve data as LAS or ASCII
• Surveys
• Geological Descriptions
• Log image in JPEG or TIFF format
• PPDM
• All Data

Any of the following log characteristics can be customized:

• Depth Range
• Depth Scale
• Tracks in the log Layout
• Data Layers in each Track
• Data Curves: color, width, pattern, scale, linear vs. semi-logarithmic, data step
• Survey graphs (e.g. Vertical Section) or text
• Symbols and Symbol Libraries
• Headers and Legends

All customizations can be saved in Template files that can be used to quickly create new logs with the required format.

Quick Information Bar (Status Bar)

• Continuously displays the depth and the name of the track under the mouse cursor.
• Displays the current font size or symbol type for that track.
• Prompts remind you how to use each track.

Printing

• Use any page-oriented raster printer with continuous print capablity.
• Print any depth range of the log, and, optionally, the log headers, symbol legends, and/or track headings.
• Logs can be printed at various standard scales.
  • Well logs: 1:240, 1:480, 1:600, 1:1200, 1:200, 1:500, 1:1000
  • Core logs: 1:20, 1:48, 1:50
