In Paradigm™ SKUA® and Paradigm™ GOCAD® , you can import many types of data from numerous external sources. For example, you can import data in the form of industr standard formats, raw data, and many formats from other software products. When you import data, you can:

• • • •

Create a modeling object. Overwrite an existing object. Add property data to an existing object. Overwrite property data in an existing object.

You can find the importing commands from the File menu on the Import submenu. Thi submenu is organized first by the categories of data you can import and then by the supported programs or data types. These topics explain how to import the related files and identify the objects that you ca create from the imported files. Paradigm adds support for new formats based on client need. To inquire about new options, contact us at: www.pdgm.com/support.

Before you begin

The validity and accuracy of the data in your file determines the success of what you import. Therefore, ensure that all files you want to import contain valid data and are in the correct format. Reviewing ASCII files in an editor, like Notepad, before importing is a good idea. Appendix A, "Import File Formats," identifies the import formats that SKUA and GOCAD support and describes how the converters read the files.

1.1 Converters and Supported Formats Table 1–1 identifies the kind of data you can import, t he programs or data types, the file name extensions, and objects created from the imported data. Note The Irap RMS converter supports RMS versions up to version 2009.

1.2 Basic Concept for Importing Data For each importing command requires, you need to enter various options that the converter needs to quickly and accurately import your data files. Some commands require only basic information, such as the name of the file that contains your data, while other require more detailed data. This section explains the basic importing procedure and the remaining sections in this chapter explain detailed procedures for specific converters.

Important When you import a file to create an object, the name of the new object is the same name as the import file, without the extension. With the exception that the commands comply with the SKUA and GOCAD naming conventions. If you import a file that does not follow the naming conventions, the import command renames the file. For example, an asterisk (*) is not allowed as a part of the file name. I f your file is named W1*1, the command renames the file as W1_1. For more information about naming conventions, see Part I: Getting Started, "Naming Objects and Other Items" on page 3-9.

Basic procedure for importing

1

Select File > Import, point to the data type, and then click t he appropriate command. The dialog box for the specific command opens. For example:

2

Click to open the Select Text File dialog box, browse for the file you want to import, and then double-click the file name. – or – In the File name box, type the full path and file name.

To set the units indicating how the file is to be imported, click Advanced, and then do any of the following: a

If the z-axis value in the file you are importing differs from the default z-axis se for your project, change the domain for this new object. To change the z-axis value from depth to time, or time to depth click the appropriate option. Note SKUA or GOCAD automatically selects units based on the default z-axis setting (in the New Project dialog box) chosen when the project was created.

b

If the units in the file differ from the default units set for your project, select th Specify Units of Selected File check box, and then click the appropriate units For information about setting units for your project, see Part I: Getting Started, "Setting Units for a Project" on page 1-19.

1.3 Common Process for Importing a Column-Based File You can use the column-based import wizards to import ASCII files for mul tiple types of data. Depending on the data in your files, you can create objects such as PointsSets, Curves, and Wells, and many types of object properties. For more information about the types of data that you can import and objects you can create from data in this format, see "Converters and Supported Formats" on page 1-2. For most column-based data, you can:

• • •

Import all or only a portion of a file Import property data Specify a name for new objects (rather than automatically assigning a name or reading the name from the file)

For point set or curve data, the import wizards create an object from each file that you import. However, for well data, the wizard creates a Well object for each well identified i n the file. The importing process is similar for most of the column-based importing wizards. The following describes the general procedure. Where you encounter differences from this procedure, follow the instructions in the wizard. Note You can import certain types of data only if you load specific modules with SKUA or GOCAD. For information about data that you can import with a particular module, see the topics that describe the module.

For more information about common settings in column-based import wizards, see:

To specify the file type for a columnbased file

In column-based importing wizards, File type is the first page in most wizards. Select th data file and specify the data type as follows: 1

Type the path and file name or click , browse for the file or files that you want t import, and then double-click the selected files.

Note In this step, you can select multiple files to import. All of the files that you select appea in the Current file list. Settings that you make for one apply to all of the files in the list. Later you have the option to import them all with the same settings or import them one at a time, adjusting the settings for each file. Tip If the data is not what you expect, click Cancel. You can select a different file and then begin the import procedure again, or edit the file in a text editor.

2

The wizard automatically previews the first 400 lines of the file. If you want to see more than 400 lines, click Preload all to preview the entire file.

3

If the width of each column in the file is a fixed number of characters, click Fixed width. Otherwise, if the data is separated by specific characters such as commas, spaces, tabs, semi-colons, or other characters, leave the Delimited setting.

Tips for specifying the data type for a column-based file

Click Next.

When you import ASCII data by using a column-based import wizard, ensure that you specify the correct data type, either Delimited (the preselected setting) or Fixed width. You can find this setting on the File type page (first page i n most column-based wizards). You can check for the following scenarios to help determine which setti ng to select:

•

With the Delimited setting, if there are empty lines in the column headings, the wizard will misalign the headings. For example: Original data: DATE 1/1/1988 1/1/1989 1/1/1990

FPRH barsa FIELD 397.802 307.55 233.713

FWPRH sm^3/d FIELD 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000

FGPRH sm^3/d FIELD 0.0 1356750.0 1217807.5

FOPRH sm^3/d FIELD 0.00 9000.00 9000.00

Misaligned data: In this data, lines 2 and 3 in the "Date" column heading are empty, and the wizard aligns the data as follows: DATE barsa FIELD 1/1/1988 1/1/1989 1/1/1990

FPRH sm^3/d FIELD 397.802 307.55 233.713

FWPRH sm^3/d FIELD 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000

FGPRH sm^3/d FIELD 0.0 1356750.0 1217807.5

FOPRH 0.00 9000.00 9000.00

In this case, specify Fixed width instead.

•

With the Delimited setting, when you advance to the next page of the wizard (Column Separation) and select delimiters, the columns should be highlighted with alternate colors. For example:

If the columns are not selected as shown, return to the previous page and select Fixed width instead. If you select Fixed width, when you advance to the next page in the wizard, you can delineate the columns based on fixed field width.

To specify the column assignment for a column-based file

If there is no x-, y-, or z-column in the file, the wizard automatically assigns a value of zero for that coordinate. If there is an x-, y-, or z-column, on the next page of the wizard, you need to specify the location of this data in the file.

In the column-based importing wizards, if items (such as x-, y-, or z-coordinates or the object name) are given in specific columns in the file, on the Column assignment page (see example, Figure 1–4), you need to specify the location of the items in the file. Note This page is not exactly the same in all column-based import wizards, and not all wizards include this page. Where you encounter differences, follow the instructions in the wizard.

Importing Well Symbol Data

You can use the Well Status Symbols converter to import well symbol data for existing Well objects. Typically, symbols define the well status (gas, dry, producer, and so on). Th converter reads from a file with at least two columns: well_name and symbol_type (in th command, you can indicate which column is which). For example: Well1 Gas Well2 Dry Notes

• • •

If you experience difficulty importing statuses that include spaces, add quotation marks surrounding the text in your file. You can also edit the well status (change the symbol) for an existing well. For information, see Part IV: Foundation Modeling, "Setting the Well Status" on page 9-10. For users running SKUA from the Paradigm™ Session Manager, the well status that you can se with this command includes the same list of well symbols that you can assign from the Paradigm Well Data Manager. For information about sharing well data with other Paradigm applications or setting well status in an Epos ® project, see:

For information about displaying and working with production data after you import it, see Part IV: Foundation Modeling, "Working with Engineering and Production Data" on page 9-29.

Importing Well Production Data from a General Format User File or VOL File

You can use the G eneral Format import wizard t o import production data from columnbased user files and VOL1 files. The command adds the data to existing Well objects.

Note The format of VOL files is not strictly column-based. The well name is on a row by itself, and the production data for that well is in column format following the well name. The converter reads the columns of data for the first well until it encounters the next well name on a row by itself, and then begins reading the columns for this well.

This wizard includes many settings that are common to other column-based import wizards. This topic describes only the steps that are specific to importing production data For information about how to configure the common settings, see "Common Process fo Importing a Column-Based File" on page 1-8.

Tip For production data, specifying a no-data value of -99999 prevents null data from appearing a zeros in production plots. For information about how to specify a no-data value in the wizard, see step 6 in "To specify the column assignment for a column-based file" on page 1-12.

You can easily import ASCII historical data by using the column-based importing wizard a follows:

•

Identify the columns that contain standard ECLIPSE data keywords followed by "H. For example, historical fiel d oil-production data becomes FOPRH; similarly, historica well water-cut data becomes WWCTH. For a list of the most common ECLIPSE keywords, see Part X: Reservoir Production and Simulation, "Primary ECLIPSE FrontSim production data" on page 5-13.

•

Identify the units in the historical data by using these unit identifiers:

• • • •

Pressure. barsa and psia Rates. sm 3 /d, stb/ d, a nd Mscf/d Ratios. sm 3 /sm 3, Mscf/stb, and stb/stb

Identify the objects by these names: FIELD, WELL, or GROUP.

2.2 Basic Procedures for Exporting Data Each export process requires you to specify information that the converter needs to export your data. Some converters require only basic information, such as the name of the fil e or object that contains your data, while others require more detailed information. This topic covers the common export procedures that apply to more than one object type. The subsequent topics in this chapter explain the unique, specialized procedures for specific converters.

You can set the sampling rate anywhere between 0 and 1. The converter preselects a sampling rate of 1, which means that the converter exports all the data (no sampling). If you move the slider to 0, then the converter does not export any data.

6

Click OK or Apply.

After you complete the Export Properties to Excel dialog box, the converter automatically launches an Excel spreadsheet, which populates with the exported data.

Exporting an Object to an Isatis File You can export an object to an Isatis 1 file.

Connection with Isatis

SKUA or GOCAD connects to the Isatis database by using the GTXserver, a program provided by Geovariances. This program is installed with Isatis. If you have I satis installed on the same machine as SKUA or GOCAD, there is no need to separately download and install them. However, if Isatis is not installed, you can download GTXserver, free of charge, directly from the Geovariances Web site (www.geovariances.com). This program is available for several platforms. To access the database, you need to first open a connection with the database and then use the GTXserver for loading or saving data. The connection closes once the load or save is done.

1. For information about Isatis, visit Geovariances at www.geovariances.com .

About the GTXserver advanced parameters

Typically, a new GTXserver runs from a location on your machine that is designated durin the Isatis installation. Therefore, the default option in the Advanced parameters is Run GTXserver and the Force GTXserver check box is cleared. Your particular situation may require you to set different parameters. For example:

•

If you do not have Isatis installed, but you have an Isatis database available, you can extract the GTXserver package from Geovariances Web site, select the Force GTXserver check box, and then type the path location of the executable file in the GTXserver box.

•

If you need to access a database stored on another machine, you may need to run GTXserver on that machine. You would click the Use already running GTX server and then type the entries for the Host Name and Port boxes.

•

If the Run GTXserver option is not working, the reason may be that it cannot be found due to a registry problem or an environment variable. To fix this, you can selec the Force GTXserver check box and reset the location, or click the Use already running GTX server to run GTXserver manually.

The default values for the advanced parameters are set when you initially use the Export to Isatis dialog box. The parameters remain set, unless you change them. This prevents you from having to re-enter the same parameters multiple times.

Architecture of the Isatis database

In Isatis, the GTX_INIT directory contains all of the available studies (this directory is also known as $HOME/.isatis for Linux and %APP_DATA%\Geovariances\Isatis for Windows) You can reference the location of this directory from the Isatis Help menu by clicking About. The structure of each study is:

2.9.1

About the Grid Origin

When you export an SGrid to a flow simulation program, the export converter detects th origin of your grid and preselects the appropriate settings to change the origin to the location that the simulation program requires. In most cases, you will not need to chang these settings. However, if you want to change the grid origin or orientation of cells, yo can edit the settings on the Advanced tab in the converter. For example, see Figure 2–1 and Figure 2–2. Figure 2–1 ECLIPSE grid origin settings

Figure 2–2 Changing the areal origin

2 (max, min)

3 (max, max) Original origin: point 1 (min, min) Target origin: point 2 (max, min)

I

1 (min, min)

4 (min, max)

J

If the origin of the SGri d in this figure were at point 1 in the bottom-left corner, to chang the origin to point 2 in the upper-left corner, you would specify the new origin at I = maximum and J = minimum (zero).

2.9.2

Exporting an SGrid to a CMG File You can export an SGrid object (stratigraphic grid) to a CMG ASCII data file. You can create a single file that contains both geometric and property information or two or more separate files. You can export files that contain well path data for any Well objects that intersect the grid, and you can export multiple properties and multiple wells. All you need to do to quickly export the grid geometry is to select the grid that you want to export and specify the path name to save the f ile. Specifying data for the remaining items is optional. You only need to enter information for the specific types of data that you want to export. Notes

• •

For exported files that contain well path data, the converter uses the ECLIPSE format, which CMG can read. If you export an SGrid that was created by using the SKUA Flow Simulation Grid Workflow and the SGrid includes mixed or reverse faults, CMG might not be able to read all the connections between the cells. This capability requires the CMG keyword SCONNECT, which the converter does not currently export.

For information about how to specify data in the CMG converter, see:

• • •

"To export grid data from an SGrid to a CMG file," page 2-39 "To export well data from an SGrid to a CMG file," page 2-41 "To set the advanced options for exporting to a CMG file," page 2-42

2.9.3

Exporting an SGrid to an ECLIPSE ASCII File You can export a stratigraphic grid or SKUA flow simulation grid (SGrid object) as an ECLIPSE1 ASCII data file. When you export a grid in ECLIPSE format, you can:

•

Create a single file containing both geometric and property information, or create two or more separate geometry and property files.

•

Create files containing well connection and completion data for any Well objects intersecting the grid.

•

Export multiple properties and multiple wells.

•

Export fault information, if the grid i s a SKUA flow simulation grid created with the SKUA Flow Simulation Grid Workflow.

You can choose to define faults by using nonneighbor connections (NNCs) or the MULTNUM keyword. If you choose these methods to define faults, you need to compute the NNCs or the MULTNUM keyword values before you export the grid. Fo information, see Part VIII: 3D Grid Building, "Using NNCs or the MULTNUM Keywor to Define Faults" on page 2-132.

All you need to do to quickly export grid geometry is t o select the grid that you want to export and specify the path name to save the file. The remaining items are optional. Yo only need to enter information for the specific types of data that you want to export. For more information, see:

• • • • • •

Exporting an SGrid to a RESCUE File You can convert an SGri d object into a RESCUE1 ASCII or binary grid file (up t o version 35). The converter exports the SGrid geometry (including split nodes and dead cells) and property data. The converter also exports the associated fault surfaces as triangulated surfaces.

Export tips

Ensure that all horizon and fault surfaces used to construct the SGrid are present in the project. If you constructed the SGrid using the SKUA Flow Simulation Grid Workflow or the GOCAD 3D Reservoir Grid Building Workflow, most of the information needed by th converter is automatically provided. For information about creating SGrids with:

•

SKUA Flow Simulation Grid Workflow, see Part VIII: 3D Grid Building, Chapter 3, "Building a Flow Simulation Grid in SKUA."

•

GOCAD 3D Reservoir Grid Building Workflow, see Part VIII: 3D Grid Building, Chapter 6, "Building a 3D Reservoir Grid in GOCAD."

Each of the SGrid FaceSets links to a set of grid faces attached to a fault of t he same name. If the SGrid has no FaceSets, or if you have not assigned the FaceSets to specific faults, the converter only exports the grid, not the fault surfaces.

Before exporting an SGrid to RESCUE, verify that all the fault surfaces are loaded into th project and that all t he FaceSets are assigned to faults. You can do this by selecting the SGrid in the Style dialog box and opening the Advanced page.

If no FaceSets are listed in the Style dialog box, the export converter cannot retrieve any fault data. If any FaceSets are listed as "lost faces," assign each of these lost faces to a real fault by using the following commands:

•

In GOCAD, use the Rename/Merge Faults command (see Part VIII: 3D Grid Building, "Editing Faults," page 6-115).

•

In SKUA, use the Rename Grid Fault command (SGrid commands > Tools).

Exporting LGR Data from an SGrid to a Flow Simulator

With the LGR and Upscaling module, you can export local grid refinements (LGRs) withi a stratigraphic grid alongLGRs withinproperty data to flow simulation program. module, you can export ASCII format toathe CMG, ECLIPSE, and VIPWith flow this simulators, and in binary format to ECLIPSE.

Note For more information about LGRs, such as why you may want to use them in flow simulatio and a description of the process to create them, see Part X: Reservoir Production and Simulation, "What Is Upscaling and Downscaling?" on page 2-2.

Caution ECLIPSE requires that the names of LGRs are eight characters or less. If yo export LGRs with longer names, the converter truncates the names, which may caus ambiguity if the names are similar. In this case, you should rename the LGRs before you export them.

Binary format. When you export an SGrid in the ECLIPSE binary format, you do not nee to specify any special information for LGRs. The exported GRID fil e (*.grid) automaticall includes the geometry of the grid and all LGRs w ithin the grid, and the INIT file (*.init) contains the property data, which is the same for the grid and the LGRs.

2.12 Exporting an SGrid and Data to an Isatis File You can export an S Grid along with other objects (usually, point sets or wells), creating regular 3D Isatis1 grid. The converter exports the additional object with the coordinates modified to maintain the correlation between the object and the SGrid cells that it crosses.

Connection with Isatis

SKUA or GOCAD connects to the Isatis database by using the GTXserver, a program provided by Geovariances. This program is installed with Isatis. So if you have Isatis installed on the same machine as SKUA or GOCAD, there is no need to do a separate download and install. However, if you do not have Isatis installed, you can download this program, free of charge, directly from the Geovariances Web site (www.geovariances.com). This program available for several platforms.

To access to the database, you need to fir st open a connection with the database and then use the GTXserver for loading or saving data. The connection is closes once the loa or save is done.

About the GTXserver advanced parameters

Typically, a new GTXserver runs from a location on your machine that is designated durin the Isatis installation. Therefore, the default option in the Advanced parameters is Run GTXserver and the Force GTXserver check box is cleared. Depending on your situation, you may need to set different parameters. For example:

•

If you do not have Isatis installed, but you have an Isatis database available, you can extract the GTXserver package from Geovariances Web site, select the Force GTXserver check box, and then type the path location of the executable file in the GTXserver box.

•

If you need to access a database stored on another machine, you may need to run GTXserver on that machine. You would click the Use already running GTX server and then type the entries for the Host Name and Port boxes.

•

If the Run GTXserver option is not working, the reason may be that it cannot be found due to a registry problem or an environment variable. To fix this, you can selec the Force GTXserver check box and reset the location, or click the Use already running GTX server to run GTXserver manually.

The preselected values for the advanced parameters are set when you initially use the Export to Isatis command. The parameters remain set, unless you change them.

In Paradigm™ SKUA® and Paradigm™ GOCAD® , where possible, the import converters provide a high degree of flexibility and can identify and import data files without requirin rigid file formats. However, some converters, because of the specific data being imported require explicit formatting and precise data to import a file. This appendix describes the converters and file format requirements. Table A–1 on page A-2 is a summary of the file formats that you can import.

A.2 Column-Based Formats The converter for column-based files lets you import the following types of data:

• • •

Fault interpretation data to create a PointsSet or Curve object (including property data) Horizon interpretation data to create a Curve object (including property data) Well data (including paths, logs, and markers) to create a Well object

The converter expects to read a set of points from an ASCII file t hat contains columns of data. The file should contain a column of X data, a column of Y data, a column of Z data, and (optionally) additional columns for different properties. The file does not have to be structured. Free-form or fixedwidth columns

The file format can be either free-form (fields are separated by blanks and/or tabs) or fixed-width columns (each column can be of a different width).

Column position

The X, Y, Z coordinate values do not have to be the first three columns.

Pro pert ies

I n add it io n t o t he requi red X , Y, Z c oo rd in at es , y ou can i mp or t add iti on al property values by specifying, for each additional property, a property name and its corresponding data column position in a line.

Partial importing

By default the converter reads the entire file, but you can also import just a portion of the file. This also means that you can read in different parts of the same file separately if they represent different objects or have different formats or information.

Object name

The converter can read the object name from the file, or you can specify the name of the object during the import procedure (in the appropriate dialog box).

Here are two examples of column-based file formats. Each column is separated by one or more spaces.

A.3 CMG Formats

Each run of the CMG IMEX black oil simulator creates an Output file (OUT), Index Result File (IRF), and Main Results File ( MRF). The IRF and MRF work together. Thus, an IRF is no useful without an MRF and vice versa. The IRF contains an index of the MRF—that is, th IRF is a user-readable ASCII file that provides details about the contents of the binary MR

Important If you plan to use IMEX data in the Production Data Analysis Workflow, you need, at least, the IRF and the MRF fil es.

• The data portion should contain xy-coordinates in columns one and two, and

TVDSS values in column three. If MD values are included, they should be in column four. Each column should be separated by one or more spaces. • The name of the well should immediately follow the arrow symbol (->); if the file contains data for more than one well, a new arrow symbol and a new well name should appear at the start of each.

Note The converter assumes T VDSS coordinates are elevation values (negative subsea values). If your data represents depth (positive subsea values), you can run a script (Z = -Z;) that will correct the problem by inverting the well data.

ECLIPSE properties

ECLIPSE binary format

The converter will import ECLIPSE properties and add them to an existing SGrid object.

•

The converter imports the REGION (see the keywords table) keywords values as properties and regions for the SGrid object.

•

The converter sets all inactive cells as not visible and such cells are not included in an computations. The ACTNUM keyword defines the SGrid cells as active or inactive.

The converter expects to read a binary file that contains ECLIPSE keywords.

The file containing the grid geometry data should have the .grid or .egrid extension. All other relevant data files (for example, .init for initial reservoir data and .unrst for unified restart data) should be in binary format. They should have the same file name as the GRI file but a different extension, and they should be located in the same folder.

A.8 LAS Format The LAS converter expects to read an ASCII file that contains header and data in the following format. Important LAS files can vary considerably in content and format. The converter requires specific data to be present in the import file.

If several wells are described in the same f ile, the converter loads them all.

LAS format

Each keyword the converter recognizes should be preceded by a tilde (~) followed by a single uppercase letter, which may or may not be part of a longer word. For example, the converter reads the phrase “~Version Information” as the keyword ~V. H eader

The Head er s ec ti on c an c on tain a s eri es o f s tand ard L AS keyw ord s t hat pr ov id e information about the well’s name, location, logs (if any), picks (if any), and deviation survey (if any). Required keywords: ~W, ~C. If these keywords do not appear in the header portion of the LAS file, the converter will not work. ~W Well Information: Provides general information about the well, such as: name, location, service company, and so on. The converter creates a Well object or adds data to an existing well object by using the name it finds in this section next to the word WELL, or WN, or UWI. ~C Curve (Log) Information: The converter uses the data in this section to name and order the imported logs. Optional keyword: ~T Tops information (not shown in the example). If the file contains well picks (markers), these should be included in the Header portion of the file with this keyword.

Data

Required keyword: ~A The data portion of the file should contain the property and deviation data values of the properties defined by the ~C keyword in the header. The converter reads the values in the same order as the properties listed in ~C.

Here is an example file that shows an LAS ASCII file wi th ~W, ~C, and ~A keywords: ~Version Information Block VERS . 5.00: CWLS LOG ASCII STANDARD - VERSION 5.00 WRAP .

A.10 SEG-Y Formats 2D SEG-Y format

The 2D SEG-Y converter expects to read a two-dimensional SEG-Y file that contains header data and trace and shotpoint location data. You can use this converter to import data and create three different objects:

•

If you select the 2D SEG-Y as CrossSection import option, the converter imports your file and creates two objects: a Voxet that contains the seismic data and a Voxet that contains the geometry (area and vertical) of the line.

•

If you select the 2D SEG-Y as SGrid import option, the converter imports your file and creates an SGrid object.

Header

Navigation Data or Trace Geometry The converter can read the geometrical trace header information either from a separate navigation file or from the SEG-Y file. Trace and Shotpoint Information If you are using a separate navigation file, you can either provide the following information or use the converter default settings:

• • • •

First shotpoint of the first trace in the file (default is 0) Number of traces per shotpoint (default is 1) Whether the shotpoint number decreases with the trace number (default is no) Line name (if there are multiple lines in the navigation file)

Minimum and Maximum Time/Depth You can specify the Minimum Time/Depth (minzt) and Maximum Time/Depth (maxzt) yourself, or you can instruct the converter to compute these values from the SEG-Y header. Shot Location or geophone Location If you are not using a navigation file, you can instruct the converter to get the line geometry using either the shot location or the geophone location in the SEG-Y trace header.

3D SEG-Y format

The 3D SEG-Y converter expects to read a three-dimensional SEG-Y file that contains header data and seismic data.

The converter imports only post-stack data and reads a binary format, if the file adheres to the standards defined on the Society of Exploration Geophysicists Web site at www.seg.org. Files, examples of files, and keyword requirements for each file are fully explained on this Web site. The converter can usually determine the correct format; however, if you want to specify the file format, you can do so during the import procedure.

The following table gives a brief description of the general contents expected to be in th different 3D SEG-Y file types. Header

Content

Binary

A standard 400-byte header that contains 2-byte and 4-byte integer values that apply to the whole file.

Trace

A standard 240-byte header that contains 2-byte and 4-byte integer values that apply to the associated trace. A SEG-Y file generally contains multiple traces (seismic amplitude samples), with a separate 240-byte trace header describing the information contained in each one.

For the converter to work properly, the 3D SEG-Y file being imported should be evenly sampled and all traces should have the same length.

A.12 Velf Format Velf format

The converter expects to read two keywords that define the location and velocity values for the Curve object:

•

SPNT This keyword defines the X, and Y location of one vertical line. The fourth column defines X and the fifth column defines Y. For each line starting with SPNT, th converter creates a vertical line.

•

IVEF This keyword defines for each vertical line the couple’s time_or_depth/velocity The converter can read up to five couples per “IVEF” line. For each line starting wi t IVEF, the converter starts reading from the twentieth character and reads the velocit value for each time or depth.

You can have many IVEF lines for one SPNT line.

A.13 XYZ Format The XYZ converter expects to read a three-column ASCII file that contains only data values, and the data values should be separated by one or more spaces. An X, Y, Z file consists of data lines only–no header lines, no end (marker) lines. The converter expects the first column to be East, the second column to be North, and the third column to be TVDSS, or time (or any other direction) and ignores any data beyond the third column. The converter creates a single-part PointsSet object with each data point imported becoming a valid line in the object. The new object name is the name of the input file without the extension.

Z-MAP 2D Grid format

The Z-MAP 2D Grid converter and the Z-MAP 2D Grid Properties converter expects to read an ASCII file that contains header data followed by a series of Z coordinates separated by one or more spaces. The converter requires the following format. Header

The header section should contain the following:

• • • • •

An @ symbol at the beginning and at the end of the header data The name of the grid to be imported The no-data-value for the z-coordinates The number of nodes along each axis (Nu and Nv) The xy-locations of the u-extremity and v-extremity

The data should be sequenced as follows: @ GRID Unused - No-data-value nu nv umin umax vmin vmax @ D ata

T he d ata port ion s ho uld c on ta in t he z-c oordi na te s ( w-p rope rt y) for t he 2D Gri d defined in the header. Each coordinate gives the z-location of a particular grid node. The nodes are laid out in order, column by column, row by row, starting in the upper-left corner of the grid and moving down along the y-axis (v).

In the following example:

•

-9999.99 identifies the no-data value, and the converter ignores any coordinate with this value.

•

151 and 151 are the Nu and Nv values—the number of nodes along each axis.

•

The other values (1364.34 31385.9 3967.59 19052.4) appearing on the same line with the Nu and Nv values are the UV extremities (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax)—the X, Y locations.

•

Data values appearing after the end-of-header indicator (@) are the z/w-coordinates for the 2D grid.

A.15 VIP Formats The VIP converter can read VIP file formats and create an SGrid object or add property data to an existing SGrid object.

VIP SGrid format

The VIP SGrid converter expects to read an ASCII file that contains header and data in th following format. H eader

The co nv er ter i gn ores all data in th e h eader exc ep t t he fo ll ow in g t wo li nes o f t ex t:

• NX NY NZ (indicating that the data starts on the next line). • nn nn nn (where nn is the number of cells in the u/i-direction, v/j-direction, and w/k-direction, respectively).

Note If your grid file does not contain data values for the NX NY NZ keywords, you need to supply the values in the Import an SGrid from VIP ASCII file dialog box. See"Importing a VIP ASCII Grid File" on page 1-56. Data

A series of 8-point cells. Each block of data should contain the cell location in the SGrid, followed by eight sets of xyz-coordinates (24 numbers in total) identifying the eight corner points of the cell. The converter reads the grid data from the upper-left corner downward, cell-by-cel and layer-by-layer. All eight point values are read for each cell.

Property data

Property data is not required. However if property data is included, it should be at the end of the file. If property data is present in the same file, you can import it at the same time that you create the SGrid.
