PREPARE A GR FILE FOR WELLCAD TRANSFER The extension csv is the only one supported by WellCAD to transfer data. This file can be open from Excel from. To prepare the file in Excel for a transfer, do not allow any space for the description of your column. This will induce gap between columns as shown below. Total GR should be TotalGR ROP (m/h) should be ROP (m/h) Uranium (CPS) should be Uranium (CPS) When you save the file, be sure it is under the extension csv IMPORT LOG FILES On the menu File, select Import then single file

2) When you import a file if the following message is displayed. Be sure the file you want to import is not open.

INSERT PHOTOS You cannot insert all photos in the same time, WellCAD is not equipped with a module photos that allow doing it. Each photos need to be inserted one by one, this require strictness to avoid problem. Save your job regularly. 1. Select Insert new log then Ole Log in the menu Edit 2. Give a name to your new log and eventually modify the position with a maximum difference of 10% between left and right. This will define the position of your photos and its width. 3. On the window displayed (insert object), select Microsoft drawing 1.01 or Photo Editor in the object type and press OK. 4. Microsoft drawing is then opened, in the menu file, select import picture. 5. Open the first picture you want to insert and click OK, the picture will be displayed. 6. To go back to WellCAD, click Exit and return in the menu file. 7. Press YES to save changes done on Microsoft drawing. 8. Then on WellCAD, the photo is displayed but without the proper depth and proper width. 9. Move the position to your choice in your main log and reduce the width if necessary. 10. Then go to Tabular editor (menu Tools). 11. Change the top and bottom depth. 12. To insert the second picture, you have to click the bottom depth case and with the right button of the mouse select insert row after. 13. Then, the process restart as instruction (3) 14. For each picture inserted, you will have to set the depth before inserting a new row to add a picture . 15. To modify a photo inserted, if you delete a line on the tabular, it is going to be the mess on the depth, it is preferable to double click on the photo itself from WellCAD main view. Microsoft editor will be opened and you will be able to change it. LOSS RECOVERY If recovery is not 100%, you will have to fill a blank between the second core. 1. To insert a loss recovery for CQV, use the same procedure as you want to insert a photo, but once you are in the photos editor, close without opening any picture, then adjust your depth and you will have a blank. 2. For the gamma ray, you cant insert a csv file with blank line, so you have to fill the depth with the same increment and put a 0 value on each GR column. The main problem will come from the last valuable point and the first point with a 0 value, this will cause a decrease of the GR response on a zone where there is no core. This could be explained to the geologist, as a software problem and should not make any difference. (see below the example) This problem could be resolved by only inserting the GR curve of each core separately on the same position (check ref from main settings). You will then have to keep only one title from one curve as reference and

remove all other from main settings. This will avoid any add of 0 value on loss recovery and problem of extra line in loss recovery core eliminated.

Loss Recovery

INSERT A COMMENT On the menu edit, select Insert a new log then comment log Then go to the Tabular editor to set the depth and enter your text. To add a comment, put the cursor into the first line, and with the right button of the mouse select Insert a row after. The bottom depth will be the same as the top depth from the previous line, however, the top depth will be wrong and you have to change before adding any other line. Try to be meticulous when you insert lines for your comment, deleting a line will mix all the depth. CONVERT A CURVE INTO BLOCK DIAGRAM. Select the curve, go to the menu Edit and select Convert. You will have only the option to convert it into Mud log. Then, two graphs will be displayed, the original one as curve and the one with block. If you want to change the type of block, double click onto the graph.

PAGE SETUP This should be done especially if you print in black and white to avoid confusion when reading the log by having the all scale on the same line (see below)

You need to modify the position of each curve so as to obtain a shift of position

To change the position, select well log setting of the first curve (eg Uranium), check the right position, then select the well log setting of the right curve (eg Thorium) and decrease of one digit the left position. Proceed for all curves. PRINT PREVIEW It could happen that on a print preview or a print done directly from WellCAD, some data are missing. Before doing any print Select Page set-up on the menu file, then on the windows displayed (borehole page settings) tick user defined on depth range and check the depth is properly set Note: This remark should be applied for any print to PDF format. SHADING If shading is used and document printed in pdf, only opaque shading is supported (it is an Adobe Acrobat problem from WellCAD suppliers that do not overlaid coloured format). (See example from Russia). This problem could be resolved by changing the font. The font printed is a system font. Select all your logs, open base settings followed by the font settings. It should be Arial indicated, click on OK. The printed font should be OK now. If not removed all shading! ASCII DATA You can backup all data as Ascii format under the extension *.WA# . Select the log (s) you want to extract, and then click Export, and single file.
