format_wellheaders

Supported formats are:

•TAB delimited

•Comma separated (CSV)

•Fixed column width

For more information about loading these formats into g-Space see Import well headers

Well deviation (inclinometry) data format

format_inclination

Supported formats are:

•TAB delimited

•Comma separated (CSV)

•Fixed column width

For more information about loading well trajectory into g-Space see Import inclinometry

Well markers format

There are to options supporting by g-Space:

Option 1: file format contains the information: UWI, MD, Marker name and optional attributes related to loading markers

Option 2: file format contains the information UWI, X, Y, Z, Marker name and optional attributes related to loading markers

format_markers_opt2

Supported formats are:

•TAB delimited
