Issue: My live gamma-ray data and/or surveys have stopped updating

Solution:

  • First, check if RigStream is throwing errors

    • From inside the Viewer, navigate to the Well Folder by selecting "Well:" in the ribbon at the top of the Viewer

    • Go to the RigStream Activity tab and look for any error in the "Error/Warning/Information" column

  • Double check that you have the correct well in RigStream selected in the Edit RigStream Connections pop-up under the Well tab in the 2D Viewer

  • If no errors are being thrown, reach out to your WITSML provider and check:

    1. That the WITSML data is still being transmitted

    2. No issues have occurred with their onsite hardware or systems

    3. The user profile still has access to the Well's WITSML data

  • Next, contact the well site and ensure no site issues are occurring

Issue: The RigStream data has disappeared for a well we drilled a while back. 

Solution:

  1. Check the User Credentials used to set up that providers RigStream Connection are still correct and active

  2. Reach out to your WITSML data provider and make sure the User Profile used to set up the provider's RigStream Connection still has access to the data

  3. Run a full RigStream Update to re-download the data

    • Note: It may take several RigStream Updates to download the entire dataset

 

Issue: The MWD company put a new tool downhole with a different setback or requires a different log scaling

Solution:

  • You will need to make a copy of the RigStream Log and use this new copy as your LWD log.

  • See Tool Changes with RigStream How-To article for a detailed walkthrough

 

Issue: The well has a sidetrack but the WITSML Company has not changed the WITSML well name

Solution:

 

Issue: There is a bad survey station being sent over WITSML

Solution:

  • Navigate to the Directional Survey tab in the Well's folder

  • Select the bad survey and click the "Ignore" button in the upper-right button row. ZoneVu will no longer use this survey station and will not replace this station in the next RigStream Update

    • Note: if you delete the survey station, ZoneVu will replace this deleted survey station in the next RigStream Update

  • See Ignoring a bad survey station while using RigStream How-To article for a detailed walkthrough

 

Issue: The Surveys coming in are causing my wellbore to appear reversed in the 2D Viewer

Solution:

The azimuth set in the Target Wells Header is not the same as the RigSteam data.

  • Open up the Well folder

    • From inside the Viewer, navigate to the Well Folder by selecting "Well:" in the ribbon at the top of the Viewer

  • Click the "Header" button in the upper right corner of your browser

  • Under the "Engineering" tab you will find the Azimuth box

  • Make sure the azimuth data here matches the survey
