Topic:
Markers will not post in Seis2DV/3DV or Basemap window.
Description:
Markers will not post in Seismic or Basemap window. The markers are listed in
the Marker Data Manager.
Solution:
1. In order for the markers to post on Seismic the borehole must have an
associated checkshot. To associate a checkshot to a borehole:
a. From the GeoFrame menu, select the project, enter the password and
click on the 'Application Manager' button.
b. In the 'Application Manager' menu, click on the 'Data Manager' icon.
c. In the 'Data Management Catalog' menu, under 'Data Managers', double
click on 'Wells and Boreholes'.
d. In the 'Project Borehole Data Manager' menu, click on the 'Boreholes
To Display' button, select the borehole(s) and click the 'OK' button.
e. Back in the 'Project Borehole Data Manager' menu, click on the
desired borehole (the line will highlight in light blue), and then
click on the 'Set Preferred Checkshot' button.
f. In the 'Select preferred Checkshot' menu, select the desired
checkshot, and click the 'OK' button.
2. If the markers in the project were loaded through Geoshare, the marker type
will be set to Well_Marker. The marker type of 'Well_Marker' must be changed
in order for the markers to post. To change the marker type:
a. From the GeoFrame menu, select the project, enter the password and
click on the 'Application Manager' button.
b. In the 'Application Manager' menu, click on the 'Data Manager' icon.
c. In the 'Data Management Catalog' menu, under 'Data Managers', double
click on 'Markers'.
d. In the 'Project Marker Data Manager' use the 'Switch All To' button
to change all 'Well_Marker' types to Strat, Fluid or Fault.
Or....you can use the 'Switch One To' button to change a single
marker to a type of Strat, Fluid or Fault.
e. Once the change has been made to all of the markers, you cannot
change it back as the 'Switch' buttons will no longer be selectable.
(Note: The 'Switch' buttons will only be selectable if Geoshare has
been used to move markers into the project.
3. The markers must be associated with a surface to post in Seismic or Basemap.
- If a marker is hand entered, then the surface icon can be selected to
choose a surface.
a. Follow steps a, b and c from #2 above to get into the 'Project Marker
Data Manager' menu.
b. Select the marker from the list, then click on the surface icon (the
fifth icon at the upper right of the menu resembling horizon
interpretation data.
c. In the 'Select Surface' menu, select the desired Feature Boundary
and click the 'OK' button.
- If the markers were loaded through Geoshare, the Associated Surface
Feature_Boundary must be changed. In the Surface Data Manager populate the
table with the Feature_Boundary and use the Switch buttons to change the
surface to Geologic Horizon, Seismic Horizon, Fault, Fluid Contact,
Unconformity, or Facies Boundary. Again, these changes are permanent and
the Switch buttons will no longer be selectable.
a. Follow steps a and b from #2 above.
b. In the 'Data Management Catalog' menu, under 'Data Managers', double
click on 'Surface'.
c. In the 'Project Surface Data Manager' menu, set the 'Populate with'
toggle to 'Feature_Boundary'.
d. Use the 'Switch one to' or the 'Switch all to' buttons to change
one or all of the markers to contain a Geologic Horizon, Seismic
Horizon, Fault, Fluid Contact, Unconformity or Facies Boundary
surface.
4. In the Seismic window make sure all of the markers are selected in Define >
Borehole Appearance > Vertical.
5. In the Basemap window make sure all of the associated surfaces are selected
in Post > Interpretation > Markers.
