Lesson 5 - Changing Boreholes

It is very easy to change boreholes in Strater. As mentioned earlier, the tables can contain data for more than one borehole and the project can reference more than one table.

 

Changing All Logs to a New Borehole

In our example, the Lithology and Depth tables both contain DH-1 and DH-2 in the Hole ID column. You can easily change the borehole from DH-1 data to DH-2 data. To change the borehole:

  1. Click the View | Display | View Properties command, click in the white space in the log pane, or click on the Borehole 1: DH-1 view name in the View Manager.

  2. Click the View tab in the Property Manager.

  3. Click DH-1 next to Hole ID filter and select DH-2 from the list. The borehole log items and linked text change to reflect the DH-2 data.

Changing One Log to a New Borehole

To change only one log to a different borehole:

  1. Click on the log that should be changed, such as the zone bar log.

  2. In the Property Manager, click on the Log tab.

  3. Click the well name next to Hole ID filter and select the appropriate borehole name, such as DH-1. The zone bar log automatically updates to show the new borehole's data.

When changing only a single log, only the selected log changes to the new data. In this case, the depth log, line/symbol log, and linked text continue to show DH-2 data. Only the zone bar log shows the DH-1 data. The borehole view tab and the Hole ID Filter in the View properties show -Multi- to indicate that multiple logs are displayed in this borehole view.
