Techlog Interactive Suite 2008

Your essential platform.

The platform includes all the fundamental
activities to which everyone who uses
petrophysical data needs access.
The modules included (next page) within the
platform are bundled together and offered as
a complete package.
©
Every time Techlog is run on a computer,
a platform seat is used irrespective of the
application module or modules that will
eventually be applied in that session.

Operations on Datasets
Datasets are logical groups of curves
held to a common reference. Many
operations can be performed on one or
more datasets at a time; for example:
• trim raw data to interval of interest
• combine many datasets for further
focussed processing

Clear tabular control eases complex processing on

entire datasets (combine and resize datasets)

viewers an easy to use and powerful
analysis tool. Choose data in one view
and all instances of those references
are highlighted within any type of
co-existent plot. The selection is live in
the memory of the computer so plots
can be linked if they have no curves in
common but only the same references
• Design a layout for a single well, then
right-mouse click to apply the design to
one or more other wells in the project.
There are no software limits to the
number of wells included in a plot, so
these tools can accommodate many tens
