Launching GeoSyn using AccuMap

Right-click a well that appears in AccuMap and launch GeoSyn. If the well you select doesn't have a sonic log, GeoSyn generates a constant velocity sonic log that you can manually edit later. For details, see Related topics below.

To launch GeoSyn using AccuMap:

1. In AccuMap, with the desired Detail Map and the Wells layer displayed, click the button below the Inspect tool and select Wells ().

2. Click the Inspect tool to activate Inspect mode.

The cursor changes to a magnifying glass ().

3. Right-click the desired well and select GeoSyn Launch from the popup menu.

The Define search range dialog box opens.

4. Click either Add Location or Add Range to display the Edit a UWI dialog box and specify the survey system and coordinates of the well(s) for which to retrieve logs.

To change your IHS Information Hub connectivity parameters or GeoSyn default directories, click Edit online configuration to display the Configuration tab. For network installations, hub connectivity parameters affect all GeoSyn users.

5. Click Next.

The Select data from catalog dialog box opens.

6. Click Display layout to configure the options with which to sort and filter the wells that appear above. For example, by column order, row order, by the presence of digital sonic and density logs, and by depth range.

A check mark () appears beside logs that will import, a cross () beside those that won't. Logs with true vertical depths and measured depths can't be selected for the same import.

7. Click Next.

The Define save options dialog box opens.

8. Select the locations in which to save downloaded files and whether to convert downloaded logs into GeoSyn format using the import defaults options. These options are defined in the Properties: Import Defaults dialog box, which can be accessed by clicking Edit Defaults above.

9. Click Next.

The specified logs are downloaded from the IHS Information Hub and the results are listed in a summary report dialog box that can be saved to an ASCII format file to log downloads.

10. Click Close.
