Exporting Lithology Data to the Utilities Datasheet

RockWorks | Borehole Manager | File |
Export | Lithology | Lithology Data -> Utilities Datasheet

This program will export the borehole ID, lithology interval depths (top, base, middle), XYZ coordinates for the intervals (top, base, middle), and "G" value for the rock type, as defined in the Lithology Types Table for all enabled boreholes. The results will be listed in the RockWorks Utilities datasheet.

Step-by-Step Summary

Menu Options

• Limit Input to Selected G Values: Insert a check in this box to activate a data filter based on rock type. Expand this heading to enter the minimum and maximum "G" values to be exported. These values are assigned to the rock types in the Lithology Types Table. Only those data for the range of G values selected will be exported.
• Spatial (XYZ) Filtering: Insert a check in this box to activate a data filter based on spatial coordinates. Expand this heading to establish the filter settings. 
• Resample at Regular Intervals: Insert a check in this box if you want the downhole data to be recorded at regular intervals, and expand this item to enter that interval. For example, if you want the lithology types to be sampled down each borehole every 10 feet, you would enter 10 for the Sample Interval. Be sure you don’t set this value too coarse for finely-spaced lithology types. 
  If you leave this box cleared, the program will export the listed depths and the midpoints of each recorded lithologic interval.
  
  

 Step-by-Step Summary

1. Access the RockWorks Borehole Manager program tab. 
2. Be sure there is lithology data listed for one or more boreholes.
3. Be sure the boreholes whose data is to be exported are enabled (shown with check-marks in the Borehole Manager list).
4. Choose the File | Export | Lithology | Lithology Data -> Utilities Datasheet menu command. 
5. Enter the requested menu options, described above.
6. Click the Process button to continue.

The program will read the well locations, downhole orientation, and lithology interval, and export the borehole ID; the top depths, base depths, and midpoints ("Depth-1", "Depth-2", and "Depth-3"); the XYZ points for the top depths, base depths, and midpoints; and the lithology "G" value read from the Lithology Table. The data will be listed in the Utilities datasheet.
