The well construction diagram includes both the fill material used in construction of the well and the essential hardware, such as the casing, screen, surface casing, cap, etc. The hatch patterns used in representation of the fill material are selected from the Fill Style tab. Well construction diagrams may be drawn either to scale (so that the hole and infrastructure radii are of the same relative scale) or in a simpler representation that simply fills the allotted space.
Note: Font styles used in the well construction logs are defined as document properties and set in the Text Style window. |
Nested Wells
For non-EQuIS database users, nested wells may be displayed by placing a comma-delimited list of location IDs for co-located wells in the Colocated field of the Locations table.
The Well Construction log will display based on what is set in the EQuIS Setup form. If it is not displaying as expected, check the EQuIS Setup form.
The Well Construction tab of the EQuIS Setup form determines what values from DT_WELL_SEGMENT or DT_GEO_BACKFILL display as the backfill and what shows as the hardware of the well construction.
The slotted lines in the middle of the diagram are the screen section of the well. The segment type that is considered the screen is set on the Sample Interval Horizon tab of the EQuIS Setup form under the "dt_well_segment.segment_type values referring to a sample interval". The SEGMENT_TYPE used as a screen must also be included in the "Well Interval segment_type Values" of the Well Construction tab.
Multiple screens or nested wells may be drawn by populating the DT_LOCATION.PARENT_LOC_CODE field for each of the nested wells. Multi-screen wells, where the screens are drawn aligned vertically, are indicated by not including a casing record in DT_WELL_SEGMENT for the locations representing the individual screens. Multiple generations may be used to draw a multi-screen well as the second of multiple nested wells. See the Multi-Screen Wells article for more information.
Creating Well Construction Profile
Double-click on the well construction field to add it to the report. Once in the report, double-click the well construction object to open the Well Construction dialog box. Modify the Options tab, Fill Style tab, Format tab, and Diameter tab as desired. Click the OK button to save changes.
Check the Show Text Description box (below) to have descriptions of individual well elements appear on the boring log. For EQuIS users, the text description will be applied based on text rotation.
•If Text Rotation (on the Format tab) is set to 'Vertical', DT_WELL_SEGMENT.MATERIAL_TYPE_CODE will be used. Only text associated with fields set in the 'Back Fill' on the Well Construction tab of the EQuIS Setup form will be displayed.
•If Text Rotation is set to 'Horizontal', the first non-null value of the following fields will be used:
•DT_WELL_SEGMENT.REMARK,
•RT_WELL_SEGMENT_TYPE.MATERIAL_TYPE_DESC, or
•DT_WELL_SEGMENT.MATERIAL_TYPE_CODE.
•Materials from the DT_GEO_BACKFILL table will use the field DT_GEO_BACKFILL.MATERIAL_NAME for both the 'Vertical' and 'Horizontal' Text Rotation settings. The DT_GEO_BACKFILL option is only applicable when the Geotech Schema is applied to the database.
Non-EQuIS users should place the text description values in the Notes field.
