Resource Spotlight
Introduction to Wellbore Positioning
The advent of the ISCWSA brought in a new era in survey practice, improving the realism of error models and hosting a bi-annual forum for industry experts to share ideas and experiences. This project has emerged out of a recognised need for better educational materials to support the understanding of borehole surveying issues.
Well Intercept SubCommittee eBook
The intent of the WISC eBOOK is to aid/assist line management, decision makers and engineers to determine the appropriate actions; starting by not accepting any excessive risk-taking that operate only under As Low As Reasonably Practical (ALARP) conditions, selecting appropriate ranging methods and technologies, wellbore surveying technique and operation contingency for a given interception objective.
Error Model Maintenance SubCommittee Error Model Rev4 Excel Workbook
The ISCWSA does not supply, check, certify or warrant the error models created by tool providers. However, the ISCWSA has specified a generic MWD tool error model. It comes in eight variants for various combinations of surveys, platforms, and sag correction.
