Charts

On the Charts tab of the Drill section true vertical depth (TVD) or vertical section (VSec) on HD dependency are displayed. To show or hide graph on the chart click on its legend above. Charts got switched from TVD to VSec by toggle above the chart.

Action buttons are placed on the left panel. To update the graph on the chart, click on the Reload button on the left panel. To zoom in the part of the graph select it by mouse cursor. If the graph is zoomed in Reset zoom button appear in the right top corner.

NS-EW direction chart displayed below the dependency. To zoom in the part of the graph select it by mouse cursor. If the graph is zoomed in Reset zoom button appear in the right top corner. Switching from TVD to VSec is applied to both graphs.

Target and current toolface angle values are displayed on the dial scale. To hide/display target or current value on the dial click on its legend above. To change the radius, click on the Radius above the dial scale and enter the radius value in the opened dialog and click on Save.

Below the dial scale azimuth and inclination values, distance and direction to plan for Survey, Drill bit and Projection are displayed. On the right side current values for Bit depth, Well depth, current Rigstate, Actual rpm, Gamma, Hook load, ROP, Standpipe, Rotary torque, Weight on bit are displayed.

Projection

On the projection tab drilling process can be simulated based on entered parameters. This allow User to model charts with corrected parameters based on last received data.

Top table contains last survey data. After adding projection simulated survey will be added below.

Click on +Create new projection part adds first projection to the list. You can select the value to enter for selected projection. If MD parameter is selected for the projection, then the measured depth value can be entered and CL calculated automatically. If CL is selected for the projection, then the MD will be calculated automatically. Type of drilling for projection can be changed from Slide to Rotary.

For slide projection can be defined following data: Inc/Azi. Br/Tr or Tf/Dls.

When the projection parameters are entered click on count button and simulated survey data will be added to the table and plotted on the chart. Next projection point can be added by clicking on “+“ button.

To delete added projection click on Basket button next to it and click on calculate button to update data in survey table and charts.

To change reference parameters, open settings dialog by clicking on gear button. In the settings modal window there are two tabs with parameters: Rotary and Sliding. On Rotary tab can be changed Rotary Build a component, Rotary Build b component, Rotary Turn a component and Rotary Turn b component values. On the Sliding tab dogleg Severity (DLS) angle value can be changed.

T&D Charts

The Torque and Drag charts display the graphics for Weights and Torque.

On the Weight chart the dependencies of the hook load (kg) on depth (m) are plotted. On the Torque chart the dependencies of torque (Nm) on Depth (m) are plotted.

Plotted parameters and its chart color are defined in the legend on the right side of the chart. Exact values of the specific plotted point can be viewed on hovering on it on the chart.
