  1. Cross Section Introduction • Important capabilities: • Will display and plot log data from a group of well files. • Data can be hung on Md, Tvd, Mdss, Tvds or Formation Tops. • Symbols for oil/gas wells. • Control over all grid properties. • Utilizes your existing well log templates. • Allows four custom title blocks. HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  2. Typical Cross Section View HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  3. Before you start a new project Cross Section Tutorial • Move All of your Well Files (*.MDB ) into a common directory using Microsoft Explorer • Make sure All Tops & Bases have matching Names. The names are not case sensitive HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  4. Common Problems • Non-Matching Formation Names - that match from file to file are Extremely Important when designing for the top of a Formation to another. • When the program cannot make a match it draws to the end of the file giving some images that are 2 to 20 time longer than desired! These Formation names that do not match: • Lower Wilcox Sand A1 • Lower Wilcox Sand A-1 • Lower Wilcox Sd A1 • Lwr Wilcox Sand A1 HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  5. Running the Cross Section Click the Cross Section Menu or Icon on the HDS Main Menu HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  6. General Work Flow for New Projects Before Starting • Copy all files into a common directory • Review the Formation Names After starting the Cross Section • Select the files • Generate Well Images • Layout Setup • View Section HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  7. Program Design HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  8. Program Design The program is designed to work on the following tab structure from left to right. HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  9. Step 1 - Selecting Files Select the Files you want by • Double clicking a file or • Range select the click add • Select 1 file then click add HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  11. Create Well Images Components Major Components for Setting up new sections • Plot Range • Size Properties • Picture Formatting • Generated Metafiles HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  12. Create Well Images Plot Range Important Steps Select Formations Options button Select top Formation less extra footage Select Last Formation Select “Though Zone” (ie base) or “To Zone” (ie top). This can be important is not all tops and bases are entered. Add extra footage above top formation and below last formation. HDS - The Visual Petrophysical Tool

  13. Create Well Images Size Properties Important Steps Select Depth Reference (ie MD, MDSS etc) Select Vertical Depth Range Image Width (normally 3-5 inches). Remember this value is multiplied by the number of wells then adds space left and right of each well. This will help populate missing TVD data if needed to match TVD & MD sectioning.
