Wellbore 3D Viewer
| With this feature... | Do this... |
|---|---|
| Click to display the Print Preview window where you configure and output the contents of the 3D Wellbore Viewer display pane. | |
| Copy | Click to save the display pane to your Windows Clipboard in either BMP or EMF+ format, which can be pasted into Microsoft Office and many other third-party applications. |
| Zoom 3D View | Click Zoom In or Zoom Out to zoom in or out. The Perspective slider control works similar to a zoom in that it compress the cells of the Offset Grid horizontally. |
| Detail View | Zoom out to the maximum extents without having to click Zoom Out multiple times. |
| Reload Data | Click to reload the data from the S&P Global Information Hub, and the most recent changes made using Profile Viewer, AccuMap, or AccuLogs. |
| Dark Mode | Click to display a black background, which increases contrast in the display pane. |
| Restore Defaults | Click to override all settings made in the customization pane that appears in the right-side of the 3D Wellbore Viewer dialog box. Individual customizations in the Rotation and Perspective pane can be undone by clicking  to the right of a given slider. |
| Save Settings as Preferences | Click to save your current settings (including viewport) as the default display settings with which to render both the current well and future wells that have not been displayed in the Wellbore 3D Viewer before. Any alterations you make to the latest display are saved for that particular well and used the next time that well is displayed in Wellbore 3D Viewer. These settings only override the last saved default preferences when you click Save Settings as Preferences. |
| Subject Well | Other Hrz Wells | Select whether to display a shaded proximity envelope that indicates the degree to which a horizontal well varies from true vertical depth and either falls short of or exceeds the depth of the formation selected above. To shade individual proximity envelopes for each horizontal well in the viewport, click the Other Hrz Wells check box. |
| Tops | Click to toggle the display of formation top labels and markers. |
| Annotations | Click to toggle whether annotations created using Profile Viewer appear in Wellbore 3D Viewer. Display both Profile Viewer and 3D Wellbore Viewer dialog boxes, modify the annotations using Profile Viewer, and then click  in 3D Wellbore Viewer. |
| Wellbores | Click to toggle whether wellbores appear in the display pane. If cleared, elements such as gamma ray logs, annotations, and structural surfaces can still be displayed. |
| Digital Logs | Select from the following options: Subject Well - display the gamma ray log for the subject well. Other Wells - display the gamma ray log for the wells other than the subject well. MD Grid - display a measurement grid for all of the wells for which the gamma ray log is displayed. Fill - select a palette with which to color the gamma ray log. Cutoff - select the cutoff below which to apply shading. Line - select whether the edge of the log is enhanced using a dark line. This can help distinguish one log from another where multiple overlapping and adjacent logs are displayed. Normalize - blend the log coloring using the underlying shales. Inline Fence | Crossline Fence - fences are used in high-density areas to correlate tops for wells running from west to east (inline) or south to north (Crossline) in a swath that is plus or minus 300 metres on either side of the line that travels out from the center of the wellbore in either direction. Where a top does not exist in an adjacent wellbore, Wellbore 3D Viewer will skip the adjacent well and correlate to the instance of the top that exists in the next well providing that it is not required to skip more than one well to find a matching instance of that top. |
| Rotation and Perspective | For the various sliders, click along the slider groove to change the view for that plane in increments, or drag the slider for larger moves. |
| Structural Surface | Select from up to four formation tops to render, and whether a 16x16 grid is drawn on the structural surface to indicate contours. |
| Overlay Offset | Click to toggle whether the wire grid lines for the top structural surface appear. |
| Transparency | Drag to change the opacity of the structural surface. |
| Palette | Select a color scheme from the drop-down list. Note that if displaying gamma ray logs, you may wish to select a palette other than Red-Yellow-Green-Blue, which are essentially the same colors as appear in the gamma ray log. |
| Start Subsea | Type or select the subsea depth at which the viewport begins. This is the underside of the top surface of the perspective box that appears in the viewport pane. |
| Height | Type the depth to include in the viewport. The subsea specified above is used as your start point and data that falls within the linear depth you specify in the Height box is compressed into the existing viewport. |
| Well Search Radius | Specify the distance around the subject well from which to include wells. A larger radius distance displays more wells. |
| Offset Grid | Select the area to disperse amongst the 16x16 squares of the Overlay Offset. A larger number displays more extreme results. |
| Thumbnail Viewer | View the allowable area to view in contrast to the area currently displayed in the Display Pane. Drag the viewport window in the Thumbnail Viewer to change the region that appears in the main display pane. |
