PTRT 2372 - Petroleum Data Loading

3 Hours (2-2)
Data types and usages, table set ups and definitions for software and server loading of petroleum data, standard formats (ASCII, Excel and direct links) for production, borehole geophysical logs (LAS, LIS), seismic volumes (SEGY, SEGP1), GIS data (SHAPE files) and horizons (DAT) as well as formatting unstructured electronic data (spreadsheets) for proper loading into geologic and geophysical software applications and transferring data between applications. General techniques for quality checking the validity of the data loading will be presented specific to the data type. Also covers exporting formats with data transfer. Public and private data sources will be explored and examples used. Students will install software licenses on both standalone and network systems; describe file system structure and navigation; perform queries; and retrieve and export data. Manage and manipulate data and data files; create and manage a project; import/ export cartographic, lease, well information, seismic, log, and spreadsheet data from and to external sources; load and manage general well information, including well logs (both in ASCII and binary format), seismic data and cultural data; transfer data between different software applications; and export and import graphs and reports.
