Oil and gas

Oil and gas drilling: gas shows, logs and drilling response, aligned.

Horizontal wells, gas chromatography, gamma ray and resistivity. BoreWatch reads the files the mud-logging and LWD contractors already deliver and lines them up with the cuttings description, well by well and across the pad.

Horizontal oil and gas well OA-B4H in BoreWatch: drilling parameters, total gas and C1 to nC5 chromatography, gas wetness and balance, gamma ray and resistivity beside the lithology, with a pit-volume loss and a drilling break in the monitor
What you see

One hole. Every file, on one depth.

The local engine sorts the files by well, builds the tracks and flags the events as new data arrives.

Gas shows in context

Chromatography and the wetness and balance ratios on the same depth as the rock description and the drilling response.

Drilling events, flagged

Losses, gains, drilling breaks, torque and pressure spikes, stick-slip and data gaps, each with its depth and time.

Pad-wide comparison

2 to 10 wells side by side on MD, TVD or elevation; plan view and 3D paths with any parameter coloured along the well.

What it reads

The files you already get.

  • Mud logs and rig data (CSV, LAS 2.0, WITSML 1.4): ROP, WOB, torque, SPP, flow, pits, mud weight in and out
  • Gas: total gas and chromatography C1 to nC5, with gas wetness (Wh) and balance (Bh); H2S and CO2
  • LWD and wireline curves (gamma ray, deep and shallow resistivity), lithology descriptions, casing and directional surveys of deviated and horizontal wells

Drop them into one folder on the Windows computer that holds the data. Column names and units are recognised automatically; the engine works out the industry of each well from its own data.

Hand-off to your other software

No re-typing.

After every update the engine writes the files your modelling and log software imports: Petrel well heads, well paths, tops, logs and point well data; one LAS 2.0 file per well for Techlog, Interactive Petrophysics or WellCAD; GeoJSON for QGIS or ArcGIS.

Your source files stay on your computer.

Only encrypted dashboard data is synced; we cannot read it.
