The actual command object is called Well log image calibration and is found under Images->Additional display. Activate the command object on the preferred well log image.

Calibration is done by referencing two points on the image with its real depth values. Click first Initialize log image calibration. This will put the screen in 2D mode and display the image.

Find a top reference point on the well log image and mark it by the cursor using right mouse click (or keyboard p). Apply Update cursor to get the cursor value into the Top coordinate field. Write in the corresponding value in the Top log value box.

Repeate Repeat the same procedure for a bottom point in the well log image. The calibration is now performed.

The well log images are opaque and may shadow a seismic section. An option is to extract the lines in the image. This is done by the Transparent option.

The white part of the image is removed and the remaining information is converted to a polydata set and displayed in black. The log set is also saved in workspace under the name loglines. An example is displayed in the picture to the right.

calibrating well logs from pdf reports

This example uses a log report from NPD's facta pages .

The PDF report was taken into Ghostview and the proper well log image was clipped out and saved. Then the calibration was done according to the documentation.

The well log image was then displayed with some low opacity so that the 2D seismic in the background could be seen.

The well bore is in red to the left and the whole display is correctly placed in the 3D scene. One has to realize, however, that the logs are from the well position and not where they are strecthed stretched out. It is therefore a personal taste if one wants to display the overall log sheet or clip out single logs.

Be also aware of that Geocap can read different log formats (i.e.LAS) and display them as curves out from the well string. The well data with logs must then be placed in the Wells folder.
