Plan v Actual Wall Plot Guide

Introduction

Innova have implemented a new wall plot templating feature in the Innova Portal. This feature allows an organization’s server administrator to create standardised wall plot designs that users in the field can utilize.

It also allows the administrator to create a Plan v Actual wall plot, which users in the office and the field can download and print with a single click. This document guides the user through the process of setting up a Plan v Actual wall plot template in the Portal, and how end users can utilize it.

Setup – Innova Portal

Before the Plan v Actual plot can be used, it needs to be set up in your organization’s Innova Portal. In order to do this, your role must have add/edit/create permissions, and have access to the Wall Plot Composer product feature. To set up the Plan v Actual, follow the below steps:

1. Log into the Innova Portal. In the Wells List page, select one of your wells by clicking on its name.

1. In the side menu on the left, expand the Well Views submenu and select Wall Plot Composer.

1. Use the Wall Plot Composer tools to construct the Plan v Actual plot to your specifications.

1. Users should take note of a useful feature that is an important part of a working Plan v Actual plot – the Lock to End feature. To activate it, double click on a plan or section view chart to open the Properties dialog for that chart. Navigate to the Scales tab and toggle on Lock to End. Then click on Apply to save your changes. With this option active, when you load the wall plot the chart will automatically zoom in on the latest survey.

Note that this feature is also available in Well Seeker X. It can be found in the Chart Properties dialog for a chart, when using the Wall Plot Composer:

1. Click on Save Layout As in the Wall Plot Composer toolbar to save your wall plot for later. Enter a name for the wall plot in the Template Name field, and then click on Save.

1. Click on Save As Template to add the wall plot to the list of available templates. Enter a name for the template in the Template Name field, and then click on Save.

1. Open the burger menu by clicking on the icon in the top left of the page. Expand the Database Admin Tools submenu and select Wall Plot Templates.

1. The Wall Plot Templates page contains a list of all available templates for your organization. Assign a template to one or more operators by clicking in the Default for Operators cell and selecting them from the dropdown.

Operations – Innova Portal

Now that a Plan v Actual template has been created and assigned to an operator, it can be used to quickly generate a Plan V Actual wall plot in PDF format. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Use the side menu to navigate back to the Wells List page.

1. Find a well that you wish to print the Plan v Actual plot for. You can use the search bar at the top of the table, or the filter feature at the top of each column.

1. Click on the icon on the left hand side of the well and select Plan v Actual. After a few moments, it will generate a PDF format wall plot, which you can then open or save depending on your browser settings.

1. If the well was under an operator that has a template assigned to it, the PDF will use that template. If not, it will use a generic PvA template.

Operations – Well Seeker X

Users at the rig site can also make use of the templates to quickly generate a Plan v Actual plot during drilling operations, using Well Seeker X. In order to do this, there are two requirements:

• The user must have a license that is registered to their organization.

• They must have a working internet connection.

Once those requirements are in place, you can create a Plan v Actual plot by following these steps:

1. Open a survey or actual wellbore.

1. Select the Home ribbon and navigate to the WPC icon in the Wall Plots section. Click on the arrow below the WPC icon and select Print to PDF. Well Seeker will contact your organization’s server, and if a template has been assigned to the operator of the current well, it will generate a PDF format plan v actual wall plot using that template. If no template is detected for the operator, it will use a generic design.

   1. Note there is no requirement to open the WPC to achieve this.

Alternatively, the user can load a template into the Wall Plot Composer in Well Seeker X, allowing them to edit it before printing. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Open a survey or actual wellbore.

1. Select the Home ribbon and click on the WPC icon in the Wall Plots section, to open the Wall Plot Composer.

1. In the Wall Plot Composer window, click on the arrow below the Open icon select Open Template.

1. Well Seeker will contact your organizations server and retrieve a list of all Wall Plot templates that have been created for your organization.

2. Select the desired template from the list and click on Open. Well Seeker will download the template to the Wall Plot Composer.

1. You can then edit and print the template as if it were a normal wall plot. Click on Save As to save the template as a .wpc file on your computer, which you can then open at any time.
