Recent Enhancements · In addition to picking tops on over 21,946 new wells for 2013, IHS in-house geologists have re-correlated the tops on over 8,766 existing wells to ensure more consistent & complete information. This affects 5.8% of total wells with tops. · 293,536 tops were added in 2013, affecting 3.4% of total tops. PREVIEW CANADA IHS | www.ihs.com 17 INTERPRETED FORMATION TOPS IHS Interpreted Formation Tops and porous intervals are offered as a comprehensive and complete regional correlation tool. IHS offers consistency of tops through an extensive network of over 900 cross sections. New drilling activity is monitored to ensure the most current formation top information is added to the database as soon as the logs are available. Over 35,000 wells have their IHS Formation Tops added/updated to our General Well Database each year. Structure and isopach maps are used to ensure the historical and newly added well tops match IHS cross sections. True vertical depth (TVD) tops are calculated for deviated wells using our tops and directional surveys data. New formation tops are added to the database weekly. Before the new tops are added to the database, a trend analysis is performed on each top and each well compared against neighbouring wells. Formation Tops is a foundational dataset that is integrated with other datasets including: IHS Directional Surveys, IHS DST Data, IHS Core Analyses Data, IHS Reserves Data and IHS Pool Data. They are also key to interpreting the IHS Producing Zone. INTEGRATED GEOLOGICAL DATA SYSTEM IHS Integrated Geological Data System (IGDS) is a zone-based reservoir evaluation dataset. The IHS IGDS dataset provides you with an overview of the ability of a well to produce, and saves you the need to complete an initial interpretation of log evaluations for interval or zone evaluation. This dataset contains information on zone & porosity top and base, fluid interface depth, net and gross pay thickness, average porosity & water saturation, and porosity, permeability cutoff, and water resistivity data. Information is available for most Alberta wells and is updated monthly.
