298 EZ options tab

 

The Options tab sets a few additional options for how Petra uses the production data.

Load Production into INITIAL COMPLETION Wells Only

By default, Petra brings in production from different completions as different wells.  This option instead stores production only to the primary completions (where the API number ends in 00).

Update OPERATOR and Save Current Operator as Historical Operator

When there’s a difference between the current operator in the project and the current operator in the 298 file, this option copies the operator in the project to the historical operator field and overwrites the operator field with the data in the 298 file.

Load Producing Fm Name into Well Header

This option updates the database’s producing formation (Prod. FM on the Well tab in the Main Module) with the entry from the production data.

Store Current Status into WELL Zone as PD STATUS

Creates a data item called “PD STATUS” in the WELL zone.  This text field stores I for inactive wells and A for active wells.

Update Well SYMBOL CODE with Primary Product Code

Changes the well’s symbol code displayed on the map based on the Primary Product Code in the 298 file.

Store GATHERER in WELL Zone as GATHERER

Creates a data item called “GATHERER” in the WELL zone.  This text field stores the name of the gas gatherer.

Skip Lease Name Checking

When updating production, Petra checks the entire list of lease names when it can’t match based on formation name.  This can take a long time depending on the size of the data set.  This option skips this process.

Display Detail Info in Report

Displays all monthly production values on the import report.

Update Non-Blank Lease Number with UNIT WELL SERIAL NUMBER

Overwrites lease numbers with unit well serial numbers.

Do not use “A” in prefix/suffix to designate Allocated Production

By default, Petra adds an “A” to allocated production.  This option drops the A, making it indistinguishable from regular unallocated production.

Use 12/10 Digits for Matching Initial Well Completions

Used when loading production into initial well completions only.
