OFM Basics
This section addresses the overall structure of the OFM database and workspace. Its sole purpose is to help you understand the basic architecture of the OFM database and workspace so that you can correctly create your OFM projects.
Learning Objectives
At the completion of this module, you will be able to: Describe the OFM data tables Use the OFM Defined Table Manager Create a Shared Workspace Link a new Workspace to the Shared Workspace Link an existing My Workspace to a Shared Workspace Create a copy of a Shared Workspace.
Schlumberger Public
Lesson 1
OFM Database
OFM can be viewed as having two integrated layers - database and application. Basically, the database layer handles the data part; and the application controls the user interface, as well as the processing data/information per request. OFM database is Microsoft Access-based. All data/information are stored in tables (and sometimes views). Therefore, OFM database has all the characteristics of a relational database, including constraints, keys, and indices. There are three main classes (types) of tables in an OFM database: Data Table System and Configuration Table OFM -Managed Table
There are two types of data tables in an OFM project: Standard Data Tables that have no prefix OFM Defined Data Tables that have OFM_Data_ as a prefix
Previous versions of OFM also had OFM Defined System Data tables that had _OFM_SYS_ as a prefix. In OFM 2007 all the information that was stored in the OFM Defined System Data tables is now stored in the *.OFM workspace file.
OFM Basics
Schlumberger
NOTE: There are only two types of tables in OFM 2007, OFM-defined database tables having the prefix OFM_DATA_ and standard database data tables. Previous versions of OFM had tables containing the prefix _OFM_SYS_. All the information that was stored in those tables is now stored in the *.OFM workspace file.
OFM Data Tables

As the name suggests, these tables contain data. Most of the tables must have at least one key (primary key) and may contain constraint and indexing information. Each table has two or more fields, which have designated data types (i.e., date/time, number, or text) and size (i.e., long integer, double precision for number field, or 20 space wide for text field). By assigning the correct data types and sizes, you can assure no unexpected loss of data (in case of truncating, rounding-off) at load time. OFM data tables are not named with either the _OFM_SYS or the OFM_DATA_ prefixes. For example, a table to store time-independent data may resemble the image pictured below.
Standard Data Tables

NOTE: Standard Data Tables are tables that do not have the OFM_DATA_ prefix.
A standard data table is any table that does not have the OFM_DATA_ prefix. The table must have a primary key and may contain constraint and indexing information. Each field in the table will have designated data types, i.e., date/time, number, or text and size, i.e., long integer, double precision for number field, or 20 spaces wide for text field. Assigning the correct data types and sizes will insure no unexpected loss of data from truncation or rounding at load time. For example, a table to store timeindependent data is shown in the following image.
Schlumberger Public
In the above example, the UNIQUEID field is a text field that is 20 characters wide. In addition, it is designated as the primary key field in this HEADERID table (indicated by the key icon in the left). Also, as it is the primary key of the table (and later you will know that it is the master key of the OFM project) it carries additional properties (seen in the lower section, General tab). Please reference Relational Database concepts for further information.
Schlumberger In the image below, the HEADERID table is the master table for the OFM project, as indicated by the key icon to the left of the table name.
OFM Basics
The UNIQUEID field is a field within the HEADERID table of type text that has a size of 20 and is designated as the primary key field in the HEADERID table, as indicated by the key icon to the left of the field name in the OFM Representation box and in the Attr column in the Available Fields box. There are many fields in this table that are number (numeric) fields. For example, if you select the XCOOR field from the list, you would see the following:
NOTE: Not all field properties are displayed by OFM in the Available Fields section. To view any additional field properties open the table in Access in Design view and select the field. The additional properties will be defined on the General tab.
Schlumberger Public
The XCOOR field is a number field, with double precision and no decimal place assigned in display. Also, it is not indexed and can accept a null value.
OFM Basics
Schlumberger In the following image other field types can be seen in the HEADERID table. For example, the YCOOR field is of type Double, UPPERPERF is of field type Single, and COMPLETIONDATE is of field type Date/Time.
When the field is a number, assigning the appropriate field type will save space in the database. By design, OFM requires the designation of a MASTER table, which normally stores static well information such as Well Alias, Well Coordinates, etc The primary key of this master table is the main (MASTER) key of the whole OFM project. HEADERID table in the above example is a master table. To create a project OFM requires that a table be designated as the master table and that a field in the master table be designated as the primary key for the project. In the previous images the HEADERID table is the master table and the UNIQUEID field is the primary key. The master table contains static data about the primary key. The primary key is usually the completion name and the table would contain static data like the completions XY coordinate, alias, completion date, total depth, etc. Many other data tables may contain more than one keyed field. For example, a date-dependent table must have at least two keys: one is the entity key (similar to the UNIQUEID key); the other is the date key. Now take a look at a monthly frequency table.
Schlumberger Public
10
Schlumberger An OFM project can consist of many table types. Some table types contain more than one keyed field. For example, a monthly or daily table, which is date dependent, would have two keys: the primary key and a date/time key. In the following image a monthly table is highlighted.
OFM Basics
Schlumberger Public
As seen above, this MONTHLYPROD table has two keys. The UNIQUEID key joins this MONTHLYPROD table to the HEADERID table, in a relational manner. However, the primary entity key of one table does not have to be identical to the primary entity key (master key) of the OFM project. As long as a relationship (join) can be established between the two tables (normally via an intermediate field could be a foreign key), there is no violation in the design of the OFM database. For example, if you have a table like this:
This can be joined to the HEADERID table as long as there exists a way to relate Reservoir (in this RES_PROD table) to the
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals 11
OFM Basics
Schlumberger UNIQUEID field in the HEADERID table. In this illustrative database, there is a table that contains such valuable information. The relationship between them could be established as shown below.
NOTE: You do not have to physically make the joins between the tables.
The data tables store data that have got loaded into the project. Please take a look at a few data tables to experiment.
Schlumberger Public
Exercise 1
NOTE: There is a special type of data table named *_Adjustments in the Access database. These tables store prior cumulative production for the respective date-dependent tables. For example, open the Demo2007.mdb database with Access, the MONTHLYPROD table will have an adjustments table named MONTHLYPROD_Adjustm ents. The instructor will explain why this special table type may be needed.
Exploring Other Data Tables
Explore the DAILYPROD, TEST and CHOKE tables in the Demo2007.mdb database. How many keys are there in the CHOKE table? Which key is the primary key?
The instructor will explain why the CHOKE table is a special type of table in OFM.
OFM Defined Data Tables

The other type of table in OFM is the OFM-defined data table. It stores data that is either loaded, input or a result of OFM analyses. One type of OFM-defined data table has the prefix OFM_DATA_DCA_ and decline curve analysis data generated in the OFM decline curve analysis module. These tables are automatically created when the project is created and will not contain any data unless a forecast has been saved or merged from another workspace. The names of these tables, as defined by OFM, cannot be changed. Some additional OFM defined data tables are OFM_DATA_Deviation, OFM_DATA_Fault, OFM_DATA_FILTER, OFM_DATA_Log, OFM_DATA_Marker, etc. It is not recommended that the names of these tables be changed as it could prevent OFM from being able to access the
12
Schlumberger data. Even though OFM-defined data tables are basically data tables, the data that are stored in them can be sensitive to changes; therefore, it is not recommended that the data be manipulated manually.
OFM Basics
Exercise 2
Studying OFM Defined Data Tables

NOTE: The Log table (i.e., OFM_DATA_LOG) stores binary data object (i.e., BLOB). Therefore, the data (trace values) cannot be edited in this table.
Using Microsoft Access, open the Demo2007.mdb database and study the OFM-defined data tables.
The OFM Defined Table Manager

The Database\Schema Tables option is now used to only edit standard data tables. The Database\OFM Defined Tables option has been added to manage all of the OFM-defined data tables. OFM-defined data tables are tables with the OFM_DATA_ prefix. They consist of Decline Analysis, Deviation, Fault, Log, Marker, Pattern, PIPESIM, PVT, and Wellbore Diagram tables. OFM-defined data tables now can be switched between Shared Workspace and My Workspace. If the OFM-defined data table is pointing to Shared Workspace then it is read-only. The OFMdefined data table has been converted to an entity based sporadic table.
Schlumberger Public
NOTE: Refer to Lesson 2 for more information on My Workspace and Shared Workspace concepts.

Lesson 2
OFM Workspace
The following eight system tables were removed from the Access database:
NOTE: There are three types of OFM-defined tables which have the prefixes _OFM_SYS_, OFM_DATA_ and OFM_DATA_DCA_.
_OFM_SYS_Configuration _OFM_SYS_DateRange _OFM_SYS_FieldProp _OFM_SYS_Multipliers _OFM_SYS_Parser _OFM_SYS_TableInfo _OFM_SYS_TableMap _OFM_SYS_Units.
The first step taken was to extract all the information stored in the _OFM_SYS_Configuration table and put it in a HTML file with the suffix *.OFM. When any version of OFM 2007 is used to open a *.mdb project created with OFM 2004 or earlier, a XML file with the suffix *.OFM is created and the information from all eight tables with the prefix _OFM_SYS_ is written to this file not just the _OFM_SYS_Configuration table. This *.OFM file is referred to as the OFM workspace file. The _OFM_SYS_Configuration table is not deleted from the Access database and can be used to restore the *.OFM workspace file to the configuration it had when the project was converted if the *.OFM workspace file should ever become corrupt, however, any changes to the project configuration that occur after the project is converted are stored only to the *.OFM workspace file; the _OFM_SYS_Configuration table becomes obsolete.
NOTE: If the project was a OFM2007 project and had an existing *.OFM workspace the default setting in OFM 2007 is to backup the *.OFM workspace file and is recommended. If the project was a *.mdb project created with OFM 2004 or earlier then the backup message will not display and all the information in the eight system tables will be written to the OFM 2007 *.OFM workspace file.
Schlumberger Public
The second step was to remove the remaining seven tables having the prefix _OFM_SYS_, i.e., System tables, from the Access database. This step occurred in OFM 2007. When any project created in a previous version of OFM is opened with OFM 2007, the information that originally resided in the eight system tables is written to the OFM 2007 *.OFM workspace file. If the project was created in OFM 2004 or earlier, then the information is taken from all eight system tables. If a project was created with OFM 2005 or upgraded to OFM 2005, then the information is taken from the OFM 2005 *.OFM workspace and all the system tables except the _OFM_SYS_Configuration table, which would only exist if the project had be upgraded to OFM 2005 and would not exist if the project was created with OFM 2005. The system files in any project created in a previous version of OFM become obsolete when upgraded to OFM 2007.

About Shared Workspace / My Workspace

In OilField Manager 2007 (OFM 2007) the Private Database functionality has been replaced with the functionality to create workspaces. There are two types of workspaces Shared Workspace and My Workspace. When a workspace is a standalone workspace or a workspace linked to a data source the items in the workspace will be referenced using the word My. The main folder in the Analysis pane will be My Analysis, the main folder in the Calculated Variables window will be My Calculated Variables, the main folder in the Categories window will be My Categories, the main folder in the Units window will be My Units, etc. When the word My is used, that means that the items can be edited. When a workspace is linked to another workspace, the items in the workspace will be categorized as either My or Shared. Any items that are categorized under the word Shared will not be editable from within that linked workspace.
Creating a Shared Workspace

Schlumberger Public
A Shared Workspace can be a standalone workspace or a linked workspace. A typical Shared Workspace can be a workspace linked to a company database or a standalone project created using ASCII files. The primary benefit of a Shared Workspace is the ability to share a project with multiple users while restricting those users from modifying shared files. The functionality to create a shared workspace is the same as with OFM 2005 or OFM 2004, using linked tables or ASCII files. The only difference is once the workspace is created the items in the Shared Workspace will be referenced using the word My, as in My Analysis, My Calculated Variables, My Categories, etc. If you link to the Shared Workspace using the Link to a Shared Workspace File: functionality, you will see the same items referenced using the word Shared; the items in the users linked workspace just created will be referenced using the word My. You will be able to add, edit or delete any of the items referenced as My, but will not be able to add, edit or delete any of the items referenced as Shared. In your training data set is an Access database named Company Data Source.mdb. The following workflow will create a Shared Workspace that is linked to the Company Data Source.mdb file. The Shared Workspace will then be linked to, illustrating how a user would access the Shared Workspace using the Shared Workspace / My Workspace concept. In this example the external data source is an Access database but it could be any external data source, Oracle, SQL, Excel, etc.
NOTE: In OFM 2007.1 the word Team was used. It was replaced in OFM 2007.2 with the word Shared.
NOTE: The procedure which follows would be performed by a nominated Owner of the Shared Workspace, typically a Team Leader or some other responsible person in the organization.

Creating a New My Workspace that is Linked to the Shared Workspace

The Shared Workspace enables you to share the workspace, but prevents you from being able to add, edit, or delete items in the workspace. We are now going to simulate how a team member would create a new personal workspace, and how he will link to the Shared Workspace created during the previous exercise in order to share all of its items. 1. To create My Workspace open OFM 2007. 2. Select File > New Workspace. The New OFM Workspace window displays. 3. Click the browse button to the right of the Workspace File field. The New OFM Workspace window displays. 4. In the File Name field, type My Workspace and click OK. You are returned to the New OFM Workspace window. A default name using the same prefix as the Workspace File name is displayed in the Database File field. 5. Locate the How do you want to define your project? section, select the Link to a Shared Workspace File option, and click the browse button to the right of the text field. The Open window displays. 6.

It is important to review and note that previously a workspace was created that was to be shared to other users. Upon opening that workspace directly you will see the word My on all the items because it is a standalone project that was created with ASCII files or is linked to an external data source. When you create a My Workspace that is linked to that Shared Workspace will see Shared on all the items in the workspace previously created and My on all the items created in the My Workspace just created. The items are labeled as My or Shared depending on from which workspace they are being viewed.
Linking an Existing OFM Project Workspace to a Shared Workspace

There will be times when you may wish to migrate a pre-existing OFM 2005 project, complete with your pre-existing (standalone) associated My Workspace, to OFM 2007. In the previous exercises you were creating new Workspaces. Here, however, you will retain an existing Workspace, but make use of the new Shared Workspace feature in OFM 2007. To do this, use the Database > Shared Workspace facility. To link an existing workspace to a Shared Workspace: 1. Open the Demo2007 project as a standalone user: Select File > Open Workspace. Navigate to the My Workspace file you created in the previous exercise. 2. The project opens, with the Analysis pane indicating that only one Workspace, My Workspace, exists. This is the situation that would have existed when you were an OFM 2005 user.
22
Schlumberger 3. Select Database > Shared Workspace. The Shared Workspace form opens.
OFM Basics
Now navigate to the Workspace file, which will represent the Shared Workspace to which you wish to Link. 4. Click Add. 5. Navigate to Shared Workspace.OFM and click Open.
Schlumberger Public
6. OFM offers you the option to rename this Shared Workspace. (Remember, you may choose one of several Workspace files to be the current Shared Workspace.)
7. If you wish to accept the default, click OK. 8. You then return to the Shared Workspace form, which displays the list of available Shared Workspaces. Check the
23
OFM Basics
Schlumberger box next to the one that you wish to make the current active Shared Workspace and click OK.
At this point, OFM issues a message:

IMPORTANT: OFM is about to perform the linking process. Any Table, Calculated Variable, Category, Unit or Multiplier in YOUR My Workspace that has the same name as one in the Shared Workspace will be considered to be a duplicate and will be removed from My Workspace. You should consider this before performing the link process. If you suspect that any such element (e.g., a personal calculated variable) may suffer from this duplication removal, rename it before you start the link process to ensure that your calculated variable survives.
Schlumberger Public
9. Once you are satisfied, click OK. Your OFM session should now display an Analysis pane with two Workspaces: your pre-existing Workspace (My Workspace) and the newly linked Shared Workspace (Shared Workspace).
Creating a Standalone Snapshot of a My Workspace and its Shared Workspace

This feature enables you to combine My Workspace and any Shared Workspace that it is connected to into a single My Workspace that will contain all the items and data from an original My Workspace and the Shared Workspace that it was connected to, including linked tables. All the items in the Standalone Snapshot will be referenced with the word My and can be edited.

Module 2
Project Creation
In this module, we will cover the most common ways to create and get data into an OFM project. The structure of the project should be carefully designed before actually launching the first creation step. Data cannot be lost or changed by specifying incorrect tables. If a project table does not match the data source the data will simply not load or will not be viewable but nothing will happen to the data.
Prerequisites
Before getting to the actual data populating exercises, it would be useful to understand the OFM data table types and specifications.
Learning Objectives
In this module you will learn to: Analyze table types Populate project with ASCII data files (OFM formats) Populate project with ASCII data files (PI/Dwights formats) Link the project with data from external ODBC sources.

OFM Table Types
OFM data are stored in Microsoft Access tables, which follow relational database design concepts. In addition, OFM tables have their own constraints and properties. Understanding the table structures in order to correctly construct the project will save you time and also guarantee the normal behavior and data integrity of your created project.

Lesson 5
OFM Loadable ASCII Flat File Formats
In this section, you will learn the formats of OFM loadable ASCII Flat Files for various table types. You will then create a new OFM project from the text files (provided in the installed program directory). You MUST load the definition file and the (master) key data file (in that order) first. Most of the ASCII data files do not have to be loaded into your OFM project in order. Load the table definition file (for one or many tables) before loading the data files for those tables. If you choose to create the tables interactively (without using the definition files), they MUST exist before the data files can be loaded. This is also true if you want to load data into a group table (different entity key than the key in the master table), as you must define that group entity before OFM can load the data. For example, if you want to load production data at the reservoir level into a table called RES_PROD, the reservoir entity has to be associated (as a sort category, a foreign key, a wellbore, etc.) before load time. The table definition for that table also has to be created beforehand.
Schlumberger Public
TIP: Most of the time, each data file contains information from only one table. Multiple data files can be loaded into one table (appending). One definition file can hold information of one or more tables. Multiple files (definition and data) can be loaded into the project at the same time.
OFM automatically recognizes the table types if the text load files have some specific extensions. If the data files dont have the commonly used extensions that OFM expects, they will be treated as typical data files, and will be parsed into the specified tables. Here are some commonly used file extensions: *.def table definition file *.xy master (key) data *.srt sort category data *.dly daily frequency data *.prd monthly frequency data *.tst test (sporadic) data *.lku lookup data *.xrf cross-reference data *.par parser (i.e., calculated variable) data *.dev deviation data *.not note (i.e., plot annotation) data *.flt fault data *.log log (trace) data *.mrk marker data *.wbd wellbore diagram data *.pat pattern data *.ano map annotation data
38
Schlumberger We have constantly used the terms definition file and data file. Not all the tables in OFM require table definitions before load time. These are tables that do not require table definitions before load time: Deviation table Fault table Marker table Sort category (filter) table Pattern table Wellbore diagram table Parser table*
Project Creation
*Parser table is not a typical table in many ways, even though parser information does get stored in a table.
Viewing the (ASCII) Text Load Files

OFM does expect the text files to follow certain file formats so that it can read and write the data to the database correctly. The files have to contain keywords to designate/separate all information stored in the files. A comprehensive list of all keywords can be searched from the on-line help file provided with the application. In this procedure, you will study the characteristics of some important table definition and data files in the Demo (usually located in the \\\Sample Databases\Demo Database\Text Load Files\ directory, where \\\ denotes your installed OFM program directory). 1. Launch a text editor such as Notepad or WordPad. (If you have already associated the application with the file extension, you can open the file directly from Windows Explorer). 2. Select File > Open. 3. The Open Window displays, select All Files or All Documents from the Files of Type drop-down list. 4. Locate the \Sample Databases\Demo Database\Text Load Files\ from your program directory. 5. Select Demo Definitions File.def.
Schlumberger Public
39
Project Creation
Schlumberger 6. Click Open. The definition file displays, as shown below (partial file only):
Schlumberger Public
Notes:
The row beginning with the *Tablename keyword defines the table name, table type and indicates that it will be the master table. The file format is space delimited so whatever text lies between the next two spaces, consecutive spaces are treated as one, will be the name of the table, followed by the table type and the master table designation. In this example HEADERID is the table name and it is a static table and most importantly it is the master table. A project can have as many static tables as desired, but there can only be one master table. In the fields/variables section, each field is assigned a data type, text or numeric (with size). As many other PC applications, OFM has several precision specific numeric types such as INT2, FLOAT, DOUBLE, etc In the definition file, the fields attributes can be assigned, identified by the keywords such as *pn for Plot Name, *pa for Plot Attribute, *u for Unit, and *mu for Multiplier. These attribute keywords can be searched from the help file.
40
Schlumberger
Project Creation
Project Settings keywords may appear in the definition file. *DateLabel is one of them, denoting the displayed DATE name for the project. For example, a Spanish speaking user can select to use FECHA for date; the user has to insert *DateLabel FECHA at the top of this definition file. Another Project Settings keyword you may see quite often is *Metric, which alerts OFM to treat the project as in Metric unit system. The static master table must be the very first table defined in the primary definition file (there may be many multiple definition files). If the table name, variable name, or even the attribute contains two or more words and has space(s) between them (or non-ASCII characters), they should be enclosed in quotes (for instance, MY WELL) for OFM to treat it properly. Comment lines have to be started with either comment identifiers // or /*. These lines are just descriptive information and will be ignored by OFM at load time. All texts are case-insensitive.
Now take a look at the definition of the monthly production table named MONTHLYPROD. Scroll down the file and locate the line *TABLENAME MONTHLYPROD Monthly. Notice the structure of the definition file.
Schlumberger Public
41
Project Creation
Schlumberger In this case, MONTHLYPROD is the name of a MONTHLY table, which has fields like DAYS (an int4 type), OIL (a float type), and more. 7. Continue to scroll up and down the definition file to study other tables, their fields and attributes. Notice the CHOKE and the RES_PROD tables. The CHOKE table is a DUALKEY SPORADIC table. Therefore, the *DUALKEY keyword is required after the *Tablename line. Likewise, RES_PROD is a GROUP level table. OFM needs to know at which level its data are associated. Thus, the word GROUP is required, followed by the group name. In this case, it is RESERVOIR (a Sort Category).
TIPS NUMERIC SIZE

Numeric Type Value Ranges: INT1: -128 to 127 INT2: -32,768 to 32,767 INT4: -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 UINT1: 0 to 255 (unsigned int1) UINT2: 0 to 65,535 (unsigned int2) UINT4: 0 to 4,294,967,295 (unsigned int4) FLOAT: occupies 4 bytes, 7 decimal places, and values of approximately -3.4E-38 to 3.4E38. DOUBLE: occupies 8 bytes, 19 decimal places, and values of approximately -1.7E308 to 1.7E308. Knowing the appropriate range of your variable data and assigning the proper size to the variable may help you save memory and improve performance.
Schlumberger Public
TIPS - Reserved Keywords

There are reserved keywords that may be used in the text load files. They have special meanings to OFM and cannot be reused as variable names. The following table is a list of the most commonly used reserved keywords:
*DateLabel *Day *DD *DDMMYY *Define *Depth *End_Define *EOF *End_Format *Format

WARNING: Before proceeding check your OFM installation directory for the *.bdl and the *.bpf files. If you do not have these files, ask your instructor to get a sample copy.
There are two types of batch data loading in OFM. One is used for loading multiple files to create a project, the other loading multiple files to create multiple projects. The former batch file should have the *.bdl (e.g., Batch Data Loading) extension, and the latter should have the *.bpf (e.g., Batch Project File). This exercise demonstrates how to use the first feature. 1. Open the *.bdl (for example, Batch Data Load File.bdl) in a text editor. 2. If needed, edit to verify the path/directory of the text files is correct. In this case, it would be \\\\Text Load File\ and then the full file. 3. Verify that the definition and key data files are the first two files in the list.
50
Schlumberger 4. Repeat steps 1- 7 of the Creating Project from ASCII Text Files exercise. 5. Locate the Batch Data Load File.bdl file and click Add. OFM reads the file. 6. Place the correct specified files into the Files to Load list (in the specified order). 7. Click Load to load the files as you did in the previous exercise. 8. The project keyword line is followed by those lines (data files) seen in a *.bdl file. A different project is identified by a new *project line, then its own data files. To execute this batch loading procedure, from the File menu with no workspace opened, select Batch Load and the desired file to load. 9. Verify the path and file names are correct to guarantee correct loading of data. Do not forget to close the workspace for the next exercise!
Project Creation
NOTE: The format of the *.bpf is similar to the format of the *.bdl file, except for each project, there is a line specifying the project name and directory. For example, a project named DemoData in the D:\Temp directory is specified as: *Project D:\Temp\DemoData.mdb .

Exercise 14 Creating a Workspace from an Existing Access Database

NOTE: OFM does not convert the Access database.
If an Access database has tables that are compliant to the OFM database model, OFM can open it and generate a *.OFM workspace file so that OFM can utilize the data in the tables. If you open an Access database that does not comply with the OFM database model, OFM will attempt to open the database but may not be able to generate a *.OFM workspace from the data. In this lesson we will create an OFM workspace from an existing Access database. For training purposes, a simplified version of the Demo database will be used. Your generic Access database may resemble the image below.

Exercise 18 Linking to an Access Database

Considering that most Access databases are not created and maintained in an OFM-compliant manner combined with the common practice of keeping the original Access databases separate from the OFM project databases, OFM provides a dynamic method of linking the OFM database to the Access data source called the Linked Tables method. In this Linked Tables method, there are two separate Access databases one containing the original data, i.e., the source, and the other containing the linked tables, the OFM Defined tables and any standard tables. The Linked Tables method can be used to connect to any ODBC(Open Database Connectivity) compliant data sources such as SQL Server, Oracle, or Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, etc Its advantage is that the users always have a clean copy of the data. It reduces the risk of corrupting the original database. The trivial disadvantage of this method is the maintenance of two separate databases. In addition, each time the user requests data from the OFM project, the program has to resolve the links and goes to the source database to get data. This may add more time for data processing (especially when the source database is not located in the local hard drive and/or the source database is Oracle/SQL Server based), but at the same time guarantee the user always gets the most up-to-date version of the data. OFM provides built-in feature to connect to Microsoft Access. In this session, you will learn to create an OFM workspace linking to data from an external Access database. We are going to use the copy of the file Demo Access database that was in the previous exercise. 1. Start OFM. 2. From the File menu, select New Workspace. The New OFM Workspace window displays.

Lesson 6
Project Creation Linking to an Excel Spreadsheet
Schlumberger Public
Microsoft Excel has been used widely in the Oil and Gas industry to temporarily store data (before loading to long-term data management applications and/or analytical applications), as it is very easy to use. Excel is free formatted, which is error-prone for a relational database based application like OFM. OFM supports linking to Excel to get the data, via the Linked Tables method. However, to ensure the link between OFM and Excel works correctly, there are a few rules to consider: The Worksheet Name will be used as the Table Name. The first row on the worksheet is reserved for Field Names. These names should contain no spaces. Data must begin in Row2, and every column with numeric data MUST contain a numeric value. Missing numeric data in Row 2 should be represented by the default null OFM value (-99999). Each worksheet can only store data for one OFM table. No merging of worksheets allowed. Data on the worksheet must be continuous. No empty row(s) should exist in between data sections. No extra formats on the data columns (i.e., comments, merged cells, etc). Data in the same column must be of identical data type (i.e., number, text, date/time) and should be of the same format. No embedded graphs allowed on the linked worksheet.
In other words, KEEP IT SIMPLE!

TIP: Right mouse click on the table (on the left pane) and select Rename from the menu, the program gives you access to changing table names.
Schlumberger Public
You can rename a table in OFM, once the table has been mapped. Many external tables have long names, which you may consider changing. The external table names are still unaltered; only the OFM table names change. The MASTER table can only be renamed when it has just been mapped to the project. After that, it cannot be changed. The other table names can be changed at any time unless the tables (and their children fields) are referenced by other tables/fields. It has been left as an exercise to associate all other Excel tables to the project now that they have already been made available for use.
Exercise 20 Associating Additional Tables to the OFM Project

TIP: There is one static table, one monthly table, one daily table, one sporadic table, one dual-key sporadic table, and one monthly foreign key.

104
Schlumberger The PVT Entity Name window also enables you to add an entity, delete an entity, or rename an entity in the Select One list. Predefined PVT table data for one entity can by copied to another (New) entity.
Editing Project Structure

There are two parts of an OFM project: the design (structure) and the data. This topic demonstrates how to edit a project in both the design and the data. A typical OFM project has many tables and each table has many fields/variables. OFM does enable users to interactively add/delete/rename tables, fields, as well as change the project settings/associations regarding its structure.
Schlumberger Public
Editing Schema Table

The Edit Schema Tables dialog enables you to create tables in Access and locate and recognize those tables in OFM. Tables can be defined in either Access or OFM. Operations, such as editing, deleting, and adding tables and fields can be performed from the Edit Schema Tables dialog. At the project level, the dialog consists of the OFM Representation section and the Tables tabbed page. 1. Start OFM. 2. Open the Demo2007.OFM workspace.
105
Schlumberger 3. Select Database > Schema Tables. The Edit Schema Tables dialog displays.

Basemap Customization
Module 4
The basemap is the first screen you see when opening a project. It is probably the last window you see before closing the project. Managing a distinguishable Basemap helps reduce confusion and mistakes.
Prerequisites
If you do not already have your OFM application open, please open it now. Then, load the Demo2007 project. You will be using this project for all exercises in this module.
Learning Objectives
In this module, you will successfully learn how to perform the following procedures within this workflow: Edit Map Association Edit Map Display Modify Map Properties Zoom/Unzoom Apply Map Annotations and Deviations Creating/Editing Map Associations (interactively)
Schlumberger Public
Lesson 8
Map Association Data
The basemap will not display correctly until the map associations are set up. OFM provides suggestions but may not activate the desired associations. In this section, manipulation of the map associations is discussed.
Exercise 23 Editing Map Association Data

1. Select Edit > Map >Association.
117
Schlumberger The Map Association Data window displays.
TIP: Coordinates and Depths information must be located in the master table. Well Type Expression can be associated to any project variables (including input variables, calculated fields, and calculated variables which will be addressed more extensively in Reporting and Creating Calculated Variables. Well Type Expression, upon association, will lead to the window in step 2. You will need to make the correct choice as in step 3. Other map fields are likely text fields and can be mapped to any text fields in any static tables (same as Well Type Table fields). If you know that your X and Y-coordinates are in LatLong, click Coordinates located at the bottom left corner of the dialog. Then check the Convert my LatLong coordinates to UTM box, select the reference system, and click OK. OFM automatically does the job for you.
Schlumberger Public
Well Type - Table is the most common association for well display, color and attributes. You can associate/map this specification to any of the text fields in any of the static tables. 2. From the Well Type Table select Sc.Lease from the list and click OK.
3. Select Create from data option because symbols for the Lease fields are not predefined in the WellType.def file (in the \\...\symbols directory).
118
Schlumberger 4. Click OK. The remaining associations should be self-explanatory. If you know which fields in your database correspond to the OFM map fields, associate them. In this project, it is likely that OFM would suggest the correct fields so you do not have to make any changes. 5. When all map associations are complete, click OK. The basemap displays with the color and attribute-coded wells.
Exercise 24 Moving the Legend (Optional)

1. To display the legend on the basemap, from the View menu, select the Legend command. When checked, the legend is displayed on the basemap. 2. To move the legend, drag and drop it to the desired location on the basemap.

Filtering
Module 5
Filtering
Filtering is a technique used to narrow down the list of entities to a more manageable and workable selection. In reality, most users are only interested in a subset of their working projects. The concept of filtering in OFM has proven to be very useful for all users as good filter criteria can really optimize the time to perform analysis, guarantee correct results, and maximize productivity. The OFM Filter pane is pictured below.
NOTE: One of the most frequently used Filter operations is Clear. To guarantee that your filter criteria are applied to the entire set of wells (entities), clear any previously applied filters (unless you want to perform nested filters).

Lesson 11 Filter by Table Data

To select well (entities) that have data in a certain table, use the Filter by Table Data option. For example, you may have a well type field built to your project, which consists of oil, gas, and water wells. You want to select the wells that have historical oil production. Selecting the oil wells from a category may not satisfy the criteria, as some wells that are tagged as oil wells may not

Question
What do you think the results mean? Why 20 and not 21? Can you single out the difference (well name)?
Lesson 12 Filter by Category

The prerequisite for this operation is all categories used must be previously defined in the project. For example, take a look at the wells that belong to the BERRINGER lease (provided that LEASE is a category).

NOTE: If you have a list of search criteria (search characters), you may want to save that with the Save option and re-use that list with the Open option.
Lesson 14 Filter by Query

You have done several filter techniques that deal with entities (i.e., well name) and data at static level (i.e., sort category value). However, the most important data is production data, which changes over time. To filter to that dynamic level of data, use the Filter by Query option. For example, select the wells that have produced more than 500 bbls per month at least once in their production history.

20. Now rerun the query. It will return the same result. However, by adding parentheses, the query statement is more readable and manageable. The order of precedence is very important in any type of query language. Parentheses verify that the query is evaluated in the order that the user specifies and helps avoid unnecessary errors. It is recommended that you get into the habit of adding parentheses. 21. Use Filter by Query to find the wells that produce at least 5000 bbl of oil or 2000000 scf of gas for at least 3 consecutive times since 1990. Your query should return 19 wells. 22. Use Filter by Query to find the wells that produce at least 50 bbl of oil for at least 3 consecutive times since 1998. Save the query as Prod_Wells98. Your query should return 18 wells. 23. From the Filter pane, click the Save icon and select To Well List. 24. Save it to your desired directory as Prod_Wells98.txt. You may be using this list for future tasks (e.g., Forecasting). 25.

Another feature that relates to filtering in OFM is Step (a global menu). You can set up OFM entity level from the Step pane. OFM will pre-process data and return information at the set Step level at retrieval time. For example, if you set Step to RESERVOIR, you are dealing with individual reservoir instead of well/completion level. From the drop-down well list, reservoir names will be displayed instead of well names. Clicking on the next or previous button will take you to the next/previous reservoir in the list.

Lesson 17 Project Filter

OFM has smart-loading algorithms to speed up project opening. The time it takes to open a project depends on how big your project is. It will take longer to open a 100,000-well project than a 100-well project. Still there are times that you would like for it to open faster. The problem may be even worse if you are working on a network project, and the network is somewhat slow. OFM provides the option of pre-filtering the wells. Applying this type of filtering (called Project Filter) to your project will cause it to read only the applicable list of wells, saving load time from reading the excluded wells. We are going to use the Demo2007 project database to demonstrate this functionality.
Exercise 43 Using the Project Filter

Project Variables
There are many different ways to classify OFM variables (also called project variables), depending on how you would want to use them. Based on the table types that the variables belong to (or created from), you would have monthly, daily, sporadic variables, etc Based on data type, you would have date, numeric or alphanumeric (text) variables. However, the most recognizable classification, the OFM primary classification, is based on database (storage/processing) properties.
Learning Objectives
This module covers how to create calculated variables and calculated fields. You will have a chance to apply them in the next section, Reporting. At the completion of this module you will be able to: Edit Calculated Variables Add Calculated Fields Create Calculated Variables Use Calculated Field
Schlumberger Public
Lesson 18 Types of Variables

There are three types of variables: Input Variable Calculated Variable Calculated Field
Input Variable is the simplest form of variable. Input variables are fields that belong to physical tables with physically loaded data. In other words, if you open the table in Access or in OFM you would see editable data. Input variables do not change value, i.e., every time a request is made to an input variable (on a specific entity), you would get the same copy of the data. In its Access database (project), OFM stores both the design and the data of the input variable. Calculated Variables are derived variables or dependent variables. OFM only saves the definition of a calculated variable, not its physical data. Therefore the value of a calculated variable may change from time to time. For example, each time a retrieval request for a calculated variable is made you may get a different copy of the data. The advantage of this variable type is that you always get the most up-to-date copy of the data, and you do not have to worry about project storage capacity.
177
Project Variables
Schlumberger Calculated Field (formerly known as Imputed Variable) is a unique variable type in OFM. There are scenarios when neither input nor calculated variable would be sufficient to address. Fortunately, with the existence of Calculated Fields, those problems are resolved; and the combination of these three types of variables has been proven to be a complete solution for any practical purpose. The exercise arises with the grouping option. One perfect example to demonstrate the concept of calculated field is the Gas-Oil Ratio, defined as Gas/Oil. On an individual level (single well), it does not make any difference. Yet on grouped level, there is a big difference between ratio of the sums and sum of the ratios. As you group the wells, OFM groups (sums) Gas from the source, groups Oil from the source, and then takes the ratio. This is similar to taking the average (per well). What if you want to group individual (well) ratios? The last exercise is even more complicated. Primary OFM data frequency is monthly, and users are used to creating (average) daily rates by dividing monthly productions by the reported numbers of producing days in the month. Grouping productions and producing days at the source and then taking the ratio would yield the (per well) average daily rate. Taking the ratios and then grouping them would result in a field daily rate. Depending on what you want to do with your data, you have to choose the correct implementation of which variable type to use.
Schlumberger Public
Lesson 19 Calculated Variables

The first lesson involves divide by zero operation. In the Oil Industry many variables are defined as ratios, and people are dealing with zero denominators all the time. OFM imposes the following rule on all the arithmetic operations, Any arithmetic operation with a null operand results in a null. If you choose to handle this problem from a calculated variable perspective, you may get into trouble grouping (adding or averaging) or performing consequent arithmetic operations on that calculated variable. OFM offers a better way of doing it, with an intrinsic if statement to replace the unusable results by nulls.

Create a calculated variable for Date of Last Production using the @Last() or @CLast() function. When reporting (or plotting), date variables are displayed in number-like forms, i.e., 19900101.000. Even if you choose not to display the decimals, the date displays still resemble numbers. OFM provides a function called @FmtDate() so you can format the date variables to the displayed forms that you want, i.e., 1990/01/01 or Jan-01-1990. This function is used extensively on the report and headers (since headers can only be text). The output (return) of this function is a text string. 1. Select Database > Calculated Variables. The Calculated Variables window displays. 2. Click Add Variables. The Edit Calculated Variables window displays. 3.

Exercise 51 (Dynamic) Computing Variables

Sometimes, scrolling through all the records of a well (an entity) to find a specific record (i.e., maximum production) is time consuming, especially when the maximum production value varies from well to well and happens at different times. Even though OFM provides the sorting algorithm to make the task easier, having the dates shuffling up may not be a desirable by-product. Fortunately, OFM has system functions that can resolve such a concern. In this exercise, you are going to learn how to create a calculated variable that returns the maximum oil production rate for each well. You can even report the date where that peak production was achieved. 1. From the Calculated Variables window, click Add Variables. The Edit Calculated Variables window displays. 2. In the text field at the top of the window type @Tmax( Monthlyprod.Oil, Monthlyprod.Oil > 0 ). 3. Click OK.

Exercise 54 Creating Text Display Variables

There will be times that you may want to display values on the report, plot and/or other modules as headers/footers. Numeric variables can certainly be displayed in their original format, yet they would not appear very neat. You may want to create calculated variables to convert the outputs to texts and display them better with attributes like names, units, multipliers, etc. In this exercise, you will look at several built-in variables (provided with the Demo2007 project) and create a couple of calculated variables. 1.

Module 7
Plotting
Plotting is one of the most commonly used modules in OilField Manager because it is easy to use, effective, and capable of doing many procedures for analysis of production data.
Learning Objectives
OFM supports up to six graphs in one plot window. Each graph can have up to 6 vertical (Y) axes, but it can only have one horizontal (X) axis, also each y-axis can have multiple variables. In this module, you will successfully learn how to perform the following procedures: Create a graph with one y-axis Create a graph with two y-axes Create a plot with multiple graphs Use Plot Lock and Graph Blow Up options Create stacked graph/plot on entities
Schlumberger Public
Create stacked graph/plot on variables Use Sum/Average/% Contribution plot types Create plot overlay Use Plot Annotations Use plot-related tools/utilities
Lesson 22 Basics of Plotting

The following rules must be adhered to regarding plotting; All project variables (again, project variables consist of input variables, calculated variables and calculated fields) may be plotted. Text variables cannot be plotted. Plot and Graph often are used interchangeably in many cases (especially when there is one graph in the window), but they may not be identical. Graph is the visual representation of the data. Plot is the housing of the graph(s). A plot (as in plot window) can contain single or multiple graphs.

Lesson 24 Save a Plot

OFM enables you to save your plot settings and reuse them on a different entity after it is loaded. OFM will not overwrite a plot template. If a plot is open and another plot is opened, loaded or created the original plot will not be effected. When a plot is closed a template of that plot is automatically saved to the Analysis pane. We recommend that you create a backup of that template by selecting File > Save As and creating a *.grf file for that plot. A *.grf file can be reloaded to the project in case the template in the Analysis pane gets corrupted or can be used to load a plot template to another project.
NOTE: To open a saved OFM graph file, select File > Open from the plot window.
The plots graphical representation can be saved as an image. OFM supports several image formats Windows Bitmap Format (*.bmp), JPEG Interchange Format (*.jpg), Tag Image File Format (*.tiff), and Enhanced Metafile Format (*.emf). Users can also select Edit > Copy and then Paste the clipboard contents to another application.

Reporting
Module 8
Reporting
OFM, as an analytical tool, has its own features tailored for specific needs. It has the advantage of having more than 230 system functions and an environment for writing macro-like functions. An OFM report has been proven to be a powerful and effective tool for outputting information, processing/manipulating data, and testing customized variables. Unlike plotting, the fields displayed on the report do not have to be pre-constructed variables.
Prerequisites
Before going directly into the report module, it would be useful for you to get a basic understanding of different types of OFM variables.
Learning Objectives
In this module, you will successfully learn how to perform the following procedures: Create a Monthly Report Create a Daily Report Create a Sporadic Report Formatting a Report Additional Report Tools Exporting to Microsoft Excel
Schlumberger Public
Lesson 30 OFM Reports

The OFM Report module is primarily used for retrieving datedependent data. Depth-dependent data (such as Log information) are output to the Log Report module. The Report module provides an interface for SQL-like statements and a result window. You can design and customize the output to present their data. A userfriendly editor includes many useful tools a practical reporting application should have.
Rules
Do not mix sporadic variables with either monthly or daily variables on the report. Static data can be retrieved at any time because they are unchanged with time.
243
Reporting
Schlumberger Monthly and Daily data are date-based, and there are algorithms to allow them to work compatibly (though not recommended). Sporadic data, on the other hand, are different. When processing data requests, OFM 2007 treats sporadic data the same way it does monthly or daily data. In OFM 2007 sporadic data also can be grouped, unlike in previous versions. Any arithmetic calculation involving a null operand results in a null. A null data point is an empty data point. An empty cell in Excel constitutes a null (an empty field) in Access. Sometimes, a null is equivalent to a zero (0). Other times, it constitutes a missing data point. In-line calculations are allowed on the report. Thus, resulting null values could easily happen. In such a situation, you may need to have some null-handling procedures before carrying out the calculations in order to not see the nulls. On the report, a numeric null is displayed as an asterisk (*).

Lesson 31 Report Variables

All OFM variables can be reported. The variables can be accessed from the Project Variables list in the Edit Report dialog window. In this lesson, you will learn to create simple reports to output monthly (with static), daily (with static), and sporadic data.
Exercise 68 Creating a Monthly Report

In this exercise you will create a monthly report. 1. Clear any previously applied filter. 2. Group all the wells together by clicking the Group icon. 3. Select Analysis > Report or click the Report icon located in the Analysis toolbar. A blank report displays.
244
Schlumberger 4. In the Select text box, enter @name(), date, monthlyprod.oil, monthlyprod.gas, monthlyprod.water.
Reporting
Schlumberger Public
@name() is a system function. You can click the System Functions button and select Name from the list. The @ sign and the parentheses are automatically added to denote this is an OFM system function. Date, monthlyprod.oil, monthlyprod.gas, and monthlyprod.water are all input variables. You can type them in (with the commas), or select the variables from the list to add in (again, double-click or highlight-and-Add). To access variables, you have to be on the Project Variables level. Since you are currently on the System Functions level (to get @name()),click the Project Variables button. After you add a new variable into the Select variable list (without typing), OFM adds a comma after the last variable to separate it with the newly added variable. The Keypad contains Command/Keyword buttons, logical operators, and numeric keys. If needed, you can add them to the Select box (without selecting the Add button).
245
Reporting
Schlumberger 5. Click OK. OFM generates the report and displays it in the OFM main window.
The first variable (@Name()) is a static variable, as it is a constant with respect to time. The other variables are in monthly frequency. 6. Click Next in the Step toolbar to go through a couple of wells to see how the data is refreshed. Sometimes you will get to a well that does not have monthly data. When this occurs an empty report displays.
Schlumberger Public
7. Select Blue_1:Li_1C. Add a real static variable and a few of those calculated fields and calculated variables that were created earlier. 8. Double-click on the report and add sc.reservoir, monthlyprod.gor, and ratio.gor to the Select text field.
246
Schlumberger 9. Click OK. The requested report displays.

Exporting
Imagine that you are working on a shared (network) project, which has thousands of wells. You are interested in just a hundred wells that belong to a certain field and you have to go on a business trip for a while. Knowing that you will not have the network connection, you may have to do something beforehand so you can still work on your project while out of the office. OFM provides some useful options that can be used to copy all the data or a subset of the data for the filtered list of wells to your local hard drive. You can export all the critical information to text files so you can rebuild your complete database if something goes wrong. For maintenance purposes, you might want to keep a copy of all the text files (definition data). All the exporting options (related to the project) can be accessed from the global Database menu.

Not all wells start producing at the same time, and for many well potential studies, users want the option to bring all the wells to the same starting point. OFM can shift all the wells (entities) to the same base point (i.e., start of work-over, start of decline) using a functionality call normalization. Do not misunderstand normalization in OFM with a conventional understanding of normalization (normalized to one). In a sense, data normalization in OFM is equivalent to time-shifting data.

Exercise 79 Using Data Normalization

1. From the Filter pane, select Well List and right-click. 2. Select Open from the shortcut menu and load Prod_Wells98.txt. 3. Select the checkbox to the left of the Well List to apply the filter to the wells on the basemap. 4. Group all the wells on the basemap. 5. Click the Plot icon. The Edit Plot window displays. 6. Click Add Multiple Curves. The Add Multiple Curves window displays. 7. In the Category list field select UNIQUEID. In the Variable list field select Monthlyprod.oil.
NOTE: This file was saved from a previous filtering exercise. If you do not have the file saved, the list was a result of a Filter by Query operation that found the wells that produced at least 50 bbl of oil at least 3 consecutive times since 1998. Run or create the query to get the result and continue to step 3.

8. Click OK. The Add Multiple Curves window closes and you return to the Edit Plot window where the multiple curves are displayed.
9. Verify that you have Date as the X-Axis variable and only one graph.
289
Schlumberger 10. Click OK to display the plot. (You many want to increase the curve width and move /resize the graph and legend in order to see things clearly.)
11. Notice that the wells started producing at different points in time. Now select Tools > Settings and select the Normalize Tables tab. 12. Select the Enable Normalize Tables option. 13. Select the InitialProdMonth variable from the Starting Condition list. 14. Leave the Ending Condition unassociated (blank). 15. Select Default for the Date Option and Filtered Wells for the Well Option.
Schlumberger Public
The options available from the Normalize tab are described below:
Schlumberger
Ending Condition (Optional) Sets the data point to be displayed. On the plot, all data after this point will be truncated. This feature does not change the physical data; it simply changes the display (data retrieval time). Date Option Default All data is shifted to the earliest available date in the database, regardless of the variable associated in Starting Condition. Date Option Earliest The earliest date associated with the variable in the Starting Condition. Date Option Latest The latest date associated with the variable in the Starting Condition. Well Option All Wells Runs normalization on all the wells. Well Option Filtered Wells Runs normalization only on the filtered wells. To return to normal mode (de-normalize) just clear the Enable Normalize Tables checkbox.
16. Click Normalize to execute the normalization operation now, without closing the Settings dialog. 17. Click OK to close the Settings window and view the plot.
NOTE: If you do not click Normalize, OFM initiates the normalization operation when you click OK.

Lesson 41 Data Register

A data register is used to store cumulative values for a field or region to normalize data and calculate cross-table values by interpolating between tables or lookup data between tables. Data Registers are useful to compare two or more wells in a report and interpolate data between two known points. Created data registers can also be displayed on plots. The Data Registers do not provide access to data that are not in memory. They provide access to data that have been placed in memory, i.e., the data register. OFM provides a concept name Data Registers to register data and recall the registered data for subsequent calculations.
NOTE: A data register is a place to store data. It is not specifically for cumulative values, calculating cross table, or lookup data between tables.

Exercise 80 Creating a Variable to Represent the Average Monthly Oil and Creating a Data Register
1. Select Database > Calculated Variables. The Calculated Variables window displays. 2. Click Add Variable. The Edit Calculated Variable window displays. Type @Aveinput( monthlyprod.oil).
3. Click OK. The Edit Calculated Variable window closes, and you are returned to the Calculated Variables window.
Schlumberger Public
4. Type CV.AveOil in the Name field. 5. Click Close. 6. Click the Report icon. The Edit Report window displays. 7. In the Select section of the dialog type Date, Monthlyprod.oil, CV.AveOil and click OK. The Edit Report window closes, and the report displays.
292
Schlumberger 8. Select Blue_1:Li_1C.
On an individual well level, the monthly oil production and the average oil production are the same. On a group level, you expect them to be different . The ratio of individual oil production (the well) to the average production of an entity (a reservoir which the well belongs to) determine the performance of that well compared to the average. A ratio greater than unit (1) is considered above average and vice versa. 9. Clear the filter. 10. Select Category, then Reservoir and Litmus_1. 11. Group the data and select the Report tab to view the report data.
Schlumberger Public
NOTE: Notice the first several records. You should have about ten wells producing at the beginning (you can check that by the @CountInput() function). If you select an individual well now, the two numbers will be the same. Thus, you would want to register one for the grouped entity and then recall the data for later calculations.
12. Select Tools > Data Registers. The Data Registers window displays.
293
Schlumberger 13. In the Comment field type Registering Monthly Average Oil per Well for Litmus Reservoir. 14. From the X list field select Date. 15. From the Y list field select CV.AveOil. 16. Select the Lock checkbox, the (top) register location # refreshes and registers the first memory location for Litmus_1.
17. Click OK. The Data Registers window closes, and you are returned to the report. 18. Double-click on the report. The Edit Report window displays. 19. Add @reg( 1, Date, "date").
Schlumberger Public
20. Click OK. The Edit Report window closes and the report is updated.
NOTE: Notice the values of the last two variables. They should be the same. You may want to change the decimal specification to read the exact values.
294
Schlumberger CV.AveOil was saved to the data register; as long as the report displays CV.AveOil under the same conditions as the data register was saved, the variables will be the same. The only reason the last two columns display differently is because one displays no decimal places and the other displays two, as the note to the left states.
21. Double-click on the report. The Edit Report window displays. 22. Edit the report parameters and add monthlyprod.oil/@reg( 1, Date, date) to the parameter list. Click OK. 23. Increase the number of decimals in the last column. The report refreshes. Navigate through all the wells to verify the results.
Schlumberger Public
The second argument of the @reg() function (i.e., Date) is an output frequency (control) variable. If the variable there is not the same as the X variable being registered, in that register location (first argument of the function), OFM performs linear interpolation of the Y variable. There is no extrapolation scheme in the @reg() function. 24. Unlock the register and observe the difference. 25. Close the report but do not clear the register.
NOTE: Unlocked registers refresh when the entity changes.
