Interactive Petrophysics Version 3.5 Update History

Version 3.5.12.0

Module Update Fix

Version

Real Time Data Link

Digital Signature updated fixing a problem where a WITSML connection would come up in Evaluation Mode

3.5.12.0

Licensing Issues Fix to further address license issues seen in patch 3.5.9.0 3.5.11.0

Geolog Connection

Fixed issue where multiple tops were not being imported/exported to/from IP

3.5.10.0

Update 3.5.10.0

This patch has been issued to address a problem that some users have been having with patch 3.5.9.0 which causes a fatal exception in IP. The patch includes the changes in IP3.5.9.0 but

included an older version of a dll that we think is causing the problem.

3.5.10.0

Multi-Well Correlation Plot

Addressed issue where not all wells were being successfully output to hardcopy

3.5.9.0

Manage Curve Sets

When copying/moving a curve between sets in Manage Curve Sets Module there a curve history entry is now made for the new curve

3.5.9.0

TVD

MD elevation is now calculated from 'Elevation of permanent datum 'plus the 'elevation above permanent datum' fields in the well header. The user can override this calculation from the TVD module window. Conversely, if the value is changed on the TVD window it will be posted back to the elevations of the KB, DF or RT (what ever the 'Log measured from' has been set to)

3.5.9.0

Interactive Block depth Shift

Fixed issue where the Cancel button would cause an error window to come up

3.5.9.0

Depth Shift

If the output depth offset curve's output set does not cover the full interval of the curves to be shifted then a message error dialog now prompts the user to change the Depth Offset output set. Previously this would result in the curves not getting shifted.

3.5.9.0

Depth Shift Fixed issue when selecting an input set and a new output set would cause the application to hang when the Start button was pressed.

3.5.9.0

MW Correlation Viewer

Fixed issue when negative TVDSS with limited interval set would cause the data not to be seen in the plot when Settings > TVD button were clicked.

3.5.8.0

MW Correlation Viewer

Fixed issue with headers and footers being misaligned in the hardcopy if a track is hidden.

3.5.8.0

History Module When you copy a well using the ‘save as’ option, the History parameters file is now copy correctly.

3.5.8.0

Module Update Fix

Version

NMR Fixed bug in the NMR Sw Calculation if the input PhiT < CBF, which in turn would cause an ‘Arithmetic Data Overflow’ error to occur.

3.5.8.0

License Message Popup message when license is <30 days until expiry now refers the user to contact [email protected]

3.5.8.0

Log Plot

When using "default" plot header report tick boxes (e.g. Zonal Summation Report), the reports were printed at random sizes, often un-readable due to code change to .NET. The code has now been reverted back to the original code and has fixed the problem.

3.5.8.0

Log Plot When loading a .plt file which had curves which didn’t exist in the well an error would be thrown and the formatting of the Curves Tab in the Log Plot Format window would be wrong. This has now been fixed.

3.5.8.0

** This patch was not for general release ** 3.5.7.1

Real Time Data Link (Osprey Connect)

Fixed a problem where Osprey Connect would launch in Evaluation Mode

3.5.6.0

Monte Carlo Error Analysis

Fixed a problem with the Tornado Plots where the midpoint of the Tornado Plot for Cumulative Height Averages was labeled with the Average value rather than the Cumulative Height Average value

3.5.6.0

Log Attribute Fixed bug which prevented Log Attributes being added via the user interface under Tools > Options

3.5.6.0

Multi Curve Crossplot

Resolved problem where points on the left hand group of plots were plotted in a different well order to the other plots if scales were reversed.

3.5.6.0

IP Registration Page

A window inviting users to register their copy of IP is launched the first time IP is opened after this patch is installed. The window gives important information regarding changes to the way IP is supported, sold and marketed.

3.5.5.0

Help

Two additional links have been added to the Help dropdown menu:

• ‘Senergy IP Support Portal link’

• ‘Register IP link’

3.5.5.0

Curve Statistics Changed form so that the curve grids expand when you expand the form.

3.5.5.0

Multi-Well Curve Headers

Fixed bug which caused an ‘Object Reference Error’ when the user filtered on curve type, added to list, deleted all and then tried to change tab.

3.5.5.0

Multi Well Curve Headers

Added option to use the ‘Column Same’ button for the 'Final' flag. This could not be done in previous patches.

3.5.5.0

Page 3: Interactive Petrophysics Version 3.5 Update History

Module Update Fix

Version

Cluster Analysis Added message to alert user if no Well is selected ‘for Model Run’ on the Input Tab when the Multi-Well Plot button is pressed. This would have caused an error to occur in previous patches.

3.5.5.0

Cutoff and Summation

If an error message occurred it would need to be OK’d for each zone in the cutoffs tab. When multiple zones are used this could give the impression that IP has crashed. Code changed so that error message is only displayed and cleared once.

3.5.5.0

Log Plots Multiple words with spaces now allowed as log track header names 3.5.5.0

Log Plots For ‘Time Wells’ the scale label was not visible. This has now been rectified and added new scale defaults to allow time in 100’s of seconds to be scaled appropriately

3.5.5.0

Plotting

Code changed to speed up plotting after recent plotting enhancements resulted in the hardcopy output being slowed considerably. Also changed the Plot Output screen under the Advanced tab to better highlight shading options.

3.5.4.1

Electrical Image Added Weatherford’s OMI tool to the list of tools. 3.5.3.9

History Module Fixed bug where the History Module failed to pick up all but the last curve which were deleted using Curve Header or Multi Curve Header

3.5.3.7

Log Plots Fixed issue which caused blurry text when a text file was included in a plot

3.5.3.7

Curve Splice Fixed issue when splicing curve data in irregular sets when the occasional data point appeared to be excluded from the resultant curve

3.5.3.7

TVD Calculation Survey files with “hidden” characters next to the data are now checked on load / paste to remove the hidden characters after this was seen to prevent correct loading

3.5.3.5

Input / Output LAS Writer – resolved issue of writing an LAS file when there are multiple periods in the well name.

3.5.3.5

TVD Calculation Pasting Survey data and loading from a file now checks for ‘hidden characters’ (spaces etc.) which prevented survey data being loaded properly

3.5.3.5

Real Time Data Link

Fixed bug when running the basic Log calculations module from within a batch in the Realtime Data Link module where only one tab was run.

3.5.3.3

NMR Normalization and Interpretation

Weatherford’s NMRT tool has been added to the list of tools. The user is required to complete the correct T2 Stop Time due to the ability of this value to be changed in by the Field Engineer

3.5.3.3

Log Plots

Added VSilt as a curve type and updated the Composite Plot to allow the VSilt curve to be plotted and shaded correctly regardless of which set it is in. (Note: There is a known issue with the PhiSw module that doesn’t assign the Vsilt curve type correctly, so this needs to be added manually. This will be fixed in the next patch).

3.5.3.3

3.5.3.2

Log Plots Fixed hardcopy bug for Windows Vista 3.5.3.2

Neural Networks Switched off Verbose Trace which caused the message board to appear. This setting was on to allow fault finding of an intermittent issue during training. The issue no longer exists.

3.5.3.1

Capillary Pressure Data Loader

Pasting Curvenames, units and type from a spreadsheet now works correctly with a single paste

3.5.3.0

Mineral Solver & Curve Aliasing

Fixed bug in curve aliasing which caused a zero value in a Mineral Solver model Unity Equation to be converted into a curve.

3.5.3.0

Log Plots Fixed bug when “Cumulative” style was used and null data were present. Bug caused the null data to be treated as absolute value -999 for calculation purposes rather than 0. Now fixed.

3.5.3.0

Log Plots Plot Output Selection window made resizable to allow users to see pathnames and lists more easily.

3.5.3.0

Log Plots Addressed issue whereby electrical images were plotted on a black background rather than transparent. Now plots correctly.

3.5.3.0

Image Creation

Both the Acoustic Image and the Electrical Image creation modules now have and ‘Invert Azimuth’ check box for if the user wishes to correct for a Relative Bearing curve which increases anticlockwise looking downhole rather than the default clockwise convention.

3.5.3.0

Multi-Well Batch Fixed “Curve Filter” module which didn’t run properly in Multi-Well Batch

3.5.3.0

Interactive Block depth Shift

Fixed bug that crashed IP when using this module 3.5.3.0

3.5.3.0

Multi-Line Formula

Added a check box to allow the user to switch on or off the Progress Bar (default is off). The option not to show the Progress Bar can significantly speed up the processing when used in Multi-Well Batch.

3.5.3.0

Installation Fixed problem when a second user logs onto a single PC. The PC was missing a registry key that would crash IP on load.

3.5.2.1

Input Output

Included check in LAS and Batch LAS loader for spaces and other special characters in curve names that will replace them with an underscore. This will prevent problems with these curves once loaded in IP.

3.5.2.1
