Converting logs to fluid logs

A fluid log is a discrete log which specifies the dominant, mobile fluid phase at each point along the wellbore. To indicate the fluid type (oil, gas, water), a name and (integer) number is used and the fluid model will assume that the fluid logs follow the application convention for the fluid type name/number. The Convert to Fluid Log form (model > Fluids > Conversion Tools) provides the functionality for creating a fluid log using the application naming convention. The input log can be any discrete property type and the log type of the resulting log is FluidType.

Fluid log conversion

1. Select the fluid log that contains the fluid type information with an external naming convention.

2. Choose between creating a new log and updating the existing log. The adjacent Name text field remains active if a new log is created; you can provide the name of the new log in this field. Updated logs will retain their name and, as such, the Name text box is disabled.

   Important   When choosing to update a log assigned a Property type other than FluidType (see the Inspector for the Property type of your log), the log will be converted from it's original type to FluidType. You must be extremely careful when using the Update log option, as the original log is overwritten.
3. Each of the classes belonging to the selected input log will appear in the 'Map Fluid Types' table under the Input Value column. For each class you can specify the fluid type in the application convention by clicking into the Fluid Type column and selecting the fluid from the drop-down list. Select the fluid for each of the log classes as needed.
4. Click Apply to create or update the log and keep the form open for additional work. Otherwise, click OK to create or update the log and close the form. The created log is available in the JewelExplorer under the All Logs item.
