6.7 - Level 6: Actual Well

When the user right-clicks at Well level, they will be given the choice to insert a planned well or actual well below it. An actual well represents a well that has already been drilled or is currently being drilled. It is constructed using recorded surveys, as opposed to a planned well, which is constructed using planning tools.

Surveys are added to the actual well by right clicking on it and selecting Insert New Survey. Additionally, whenever a planned well is created, a planned wellbore is automatically created on the level below it.

The actual well level is made up of two components - the Actual Well Properties and the Actual Wellbore. Use the navigation tree on the left to view the page for each component, or follow the links below:

• Actual Well Properties - Where the user defines configures various properties of the actual well.

• Actual Wellbore - A representation of the full well path from surface to TD, constructed from the surveys entered at Survey Level.
