Lesson 11 - Creating Logs From LAS Files - Tutorial

LAS Files contain curve information about a well. To display an LAS curve in just a few steps:

  1. Create a new project by clicking the File | New Project command or the button.

  2. Click the Log | Create Log | Line/Symbol command.

  3. Click in the log pane area where the line/symbol log should appear.

  4. In the Open dialog, select the SB16.LAS sample file and click Open.

  5. In the LAS Import Options dialog, set any desired options and click Import.

The LAS data was opened into a new table and a line log was created using the first variable in the LAS file. You can change the variable the line log displays.

  1. Click on the line/symbol log in the view window or Object Manager.

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

  3. Click Edit in the Edit variable columns field. The Select Columns dialog opens.

  4. Move the columns you wish to display into the Selected Columns list.

  5. Click OK. The line/symbol log automatically updates to display the new data.

To create additional logs using the same LAS file:

  1. Click the Log | Create Log | Line/Symbol command.

  2. Click in the log pane area where the line/symbol log should appear.

  3. In the Open dialog, select the existing SB16 table from the Use Open Table list and click Open. The new curve is created from the existing table.
