ASCII Well Information Import

On the Well Spot Database dialog box, click <ASCII Import> to view the following list of options:

You have the following options in the Accumap menu:

The well-spot database is first created when well-spots are imported or hand-entered. The rest of the well database is built upon this foundation. Some imports will automatically compute time and depth relationships, if the information to complete the calculation already exists in the database.

For example, if checkshot surveys are imported before well tops, the well time will be automatically computed for all associated horizons. You could use Well Time to post well tops on your seismic displays.

As long as the well-spots are imported first, the order in which the other data is added is not critical. While automatic calculations are convenient, you can always manually compute or re-compute these relationships using TOPS Functions and/or Survey Functions. Synthetics can be created anytime.

The ideal order for import operations is:

Step 1: Import well-spots

Step 2: Import checkshot surveys

Step 3: Import well TOPS

Step 4: Import well surveys

To perform all Accumap imports at the same time, select Accumap | All Well Data in One Step to open the Accumap Imports dialog box, where you can select and configure ASCII files to import into WinPICS .
