Introduction
Welcome to Landmark's Windows-based Engineer's Desktop (EDT) 5000.1 release. This release of the
Engineer's Desktop provides the Drilling & Completions applicationsWell Engineering, Tubular
Design, and Well Data Managementon a shared data model.
The 5000.1 release supports the Microsoft Vista operating system, has new LAM (FLEXnet
Publisher) licensing, and contains some critical bug fixes.
This release of Engineers Desktop is focused on the following application areas:
Engineer's Data ModelEDM Administration Utility, SQL Server Utility, Drilling and
Well Services Data Migration
Drilling EngineeringCasingSeat, COMPASS, StressCheck, WELLPLAN, and Well Cost
Data ManagementOpenWells, Data Analyzer, PROFILE, and Real-Time View.
Engineers Desktop release 5000.1 setup is comprised of three separate installation programs that
enable you to download all of the products for the EDT release under the new Electronic Software
Draft
Delivery system, using Landmark Software Manager. Read the important note on page 23
regarding the install!
An overview of possible installation scenarios is provided in Planning the EDT Installation
(EDT_PlanningInstall.pdf), included with the installation executable. For detailed installation
instructions, please refer to the installation guides provided with this release: EDM Installation
Guide, and the EDT Drilling Installation Guide.
IMPORTANT:
EDT 5000.1 is a new product. If you are currently using an EDM database version that is 2003.14 - 5000.0.0,
you must install 5000.1, then upgrade your database using the new Multi-Version Database Upgrade Utility
(EDMPatchDB.exe).
EDT 5000.1 can co-exist with previous versions of EDT on the same machine. However, LAM 5000 will not
co-exist with previous versions of LAM (FLEXlm license server) on the same machine. Previous versions of
LAM must be uninstalled before you install the 5000.1 release. To run EDT 5000.1 and a previous version
of the EDT applications on the same machine, you must point one or both versions of EDT to a LAM server
located on a remote machine, since only one LAM server can run locally.

The following sections of this document detail more general information about the Engineers
Desktop release and the enhancements provided with release 5000.1. Contact your Landmark
Sales or Support Representative for further information on upcoming EDT release plans.
Engineers Data Model (EDM) Overview
Previous versions of Drilling and Completions applications utilized a number of disparate

databases and file-based data management systems. Migrating these applications to a common
database will facilitate intra-drilling software integration. Additionally, shared user interface
components, common functionality, and software modules provide for consistent data
management, navigation, and usage of all EDM applications. These integration enhancements
will increase the user's ability to use the Drilling and Completions applications and become a
more productive asset team member.
Many products provided in the Engineer's Desktop 5000.1 release have added new features and
repaired existing defects outlined in their product-specific release notes.
The integrated Well Data Management platform is a wellbore-focused enterprise data
management system designed to store all Prototype, Planned, and Actual Wellpath and operations
information. Integrated data sets promote engineering workflows, reduce the data entry burden
required by engineers, and facilitate comparison of planned and actual design and operations.
Landmark
Support for multiple-prototype designs effectively removes the barrier experienced by users when
trying to perform 'what-if' engineering analyses.
As a data management system, EDM provides a common method of storing and extracting data
from the database. Features include a set of Common Data tables shared by multiple EDM
applications, application-specific tables storing data required for only one application, and a
common Unit Management System (UMS) which supports user-defined Display unit sets which
convert values from the system storage unit set within EDM to user units. EDM also provides
support for Reference Datum Levels (RDL) that enables viewing of depth-referenced data to
multiple depth datum elevations for the wellbore.
EDM provides for a common Security system, multiuser concurrency support, andfor certain
applicationsa common Reporting Engine. The EDM Report Manager shipped with the
Engineer's Desktop 5000.1 applications is used to view, save, and send Output Reports created
with the EDM Administration Utility, and is available to the OpenWells, WELLPLAN, and
COMPASS applications. Crystal Reports 11.5 is the runtime component used to render the
reports.
Support for attached documents and folders is enabled, providing the user with the ability to store
links to common folders, associated proposals, basis of design documents, spreadsheets,
photographs, and design assumption documents with data stored in EDM. Attached documents
Draft
may be stored in the database directly or saved as links to the file system path to the document.

Third-Party Applications
A number of third-party applications must be installed prior to

installing EDM or the Drilling & Completions applications. If Third-
Party Components have not been installed, the Engineers Desktop
5000.1 installation will not continue. Failure to install these
applications prior to running the EDM Database and applications will
cause problems when using the database, applications, and tools.
The Third-Party installation is available in the Engineers Desktop

EDM download. To run the installation, navigate to
<Installdir>\ThirdParty, then double-click Setup.exe and follow the
prompts.
Once the Third-Party install has completed, a reboot is necessary to

launch the installation of Microsoft Visual J# .NET Redistribution
Package 2.0. This tool is necessary to run EDM Publishing Service and
Report Manager. Click Yes to install Microsoft Visual J# .NET
Redistribution Package 2.0 and follows the prompts.
Landmark
The major third-party applications are discussed below.
Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8 (MDAC)
MDAC supplies the database drivers that are certified for use with the
Engineers Desktop. Landmark does not support the use of any other
driver versions.
Crystal Reports 11.5
Crystal Reports 11.5 is the runtime component that is used by the

Engineers Desktop Output Reporting engine. This component is
required by OpenWells, PROFILE, WELLPLAN, COMPASS, Well
Cost, EDM Publishing Service, and iWellFile.
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
Draft
The .NET Framework provides an execution environment for various
Engineers Desktop applications and services (e.g., EDM Services
Controller, EDM Publishing Service, and each of the EDM Services).
Landmark LAM 5000
Landmarks License Application Manager (LAM) is based on

Macrovisions FLEXnet Publisher licensing server package. LAM
installation files are included in the Third-Party installation.
Information on installing LAM is located in the LAM 5000.0.0 Guide
UNIX and Windows manual. This manual is included with the Release
5000.1 download.
Release 5000.1 requires LAM 11.4. LAM 11.4 server and license files
incorporate new security enhancements used by Release 5000.1. As a
result, Release 5000.1 applications will not work on earlier LAM
versions.
IMPORTANT! The 5000 LAM server will not co-exist on the same
machine as earlier versions of LAM. You must uninstall any previous
LAM versions.
Landmark
If you are using a FLEXnet Publisher 5000 dongle (bitlock), you must
install LAM 11.4 on the standalone/client machine.
Bitlocks and OpenWorks
Bitlocks are not supported by OpenWorks. Clients who want to connect to

OpenWorks must use regular network licenses, and not USB bitlocks.
Therefore, clients using OpenWire, EDM to OpenWorks, and COMPASS

Live Link must use Network licences.
New starting in the 5000.1 release is the Mobile Checkout feature,

which allows you to borrow a license for use at remote sites, on the
road, etc., for a specified period of time. Refer to the LAM Guide for
details.
Microsoft Visual J# .NET Redistribution Package 2.0
Draft

EDM Installshield and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Install Requirements
The Engineers Desktop installation always copies required support files into the Windows
installation directory. This is in addition to disk space required for the EDM program files, which
go into a separate directory. The installation of EDM and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express
support files requires approximately 30 MB of disk space for files, as well as an additional 50 MB
for temporary files created by the installation.
Microsoft SQL Server Express 2005 Install Behavior with SQL Server 2005 Client/
SQL Server 2005
Microsoft SQL Server Express 2005 (Microsofts replacement for MSDE) is the standalone
database provided with the Engineers Desktop 5000.1 release. Microsoft SQL Server Express
2005 is a technology that provides local data storage that is compatible with Microsoft SQL Server
2005. It is designed and optimized for use on smaller computer systems, including a single-user
computer or small workgroup server.
Microsoft SQL Server Express 2005 installation issues impacting PCs with SQL Server installed
are listed in Microsoft SQL Server Express 2005 Installation Issues in the EDM Installation
Guide.
Landmark
Upgrading the EDM Database
This installation is NOT an upgrade from a previous version of the Engineers Data Model. The
EDM Installation is meant for new users of the Engineers Data Model. If you are currently using
a pre-2003.14 version of the EDM database, you must upgrade your EDM database to at least
2003.14 prior to running the Multi-Version Database Upgrade Utility (EDMPatchDB.exe) to
upgrade to the 5000.1 release.
Note that once the EDM database has been upgraded to 5000.1, you will no longer be able to access
it using the earlier applications. Consequently, if you intend to run both older and 5000.1
applications, you should make a copy of your older database and upgrade the copy to 5000.1. This
leaves your older database accessible by older applications.
For information on upgrading the Engineers Data Model, or migrating data to the 5000.1 version
of EDM, refer to Planning the EDT Installation (EDT_PlanningInstall.pdf), and the EDM Drilling
Database Guide (EDM_Drilling_Database.pdf).
Installing With Previous Versions
Draft
EDT 5000.1 can co-exist with previous versions of EDT on the same machine. However, LAM
5000 will not co-exist with previous versions of LAM (FLEXlm license server) on the same
machine. Previous versions of LAM must be uninstalled before you install the 5000.1 release
(make sure to stop the FLEX service before uninstalling LAM 2003).
To run EDT 5000.1 and a previous version of the EDT applications on the same machine, you must
point one or both versions of EDT to a LAM server located on a remote machine, since only one
version of LAM can run locally. Make sure that you stop the FLEX service and uninstall any 2003
or older versions of LAM before installing the 5000.1 release.
Before you can upgrade your existing EDM version, the database must first be upgraded to at least
2003.14.
Microsoft Security Warnings When Installing
A security warning may appear when trying to install software, due to security restrictions imposed
by recent Microsoft security updates:
Security Warning: Do you want to run this software?
Simply click Run to proceed with the EDM installation.

Online Help Viewing Problems Due To Microsoft Security Updates
Some Microsoft security updates cause problems for the following online Help files:
WebHelp, which is comprised of uncompiled HTML files (Windows XP SP 2, and

Windows Vista)
HTMLHelp (.chm) files accessed from a server machine (all platforms).
These issues are discussed in detail below.
Draft
Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista Default Security Settings Block Some Online
Help (WebHelp)
Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista include improvements to Internet Explorer security that are
intended to help most users by stopping local web pages that contain active content from
accessing your computer maliciously. Active content includes Java Script, Java applets and
ActiveX controls. Even very innocuous Java Script such as that found in online help is deemed by
Microsoft to be active content, and will trigger this security setting. OpenWells and EDM
Administration Utility use WebHelp files of this type.
When you try to open the help file in either of these two applications, Internet Explorer displays a
light-yellow information bar, warning you that it is blocking active content. (Note that this
behavior only occurs in Internet Explorer, not in other browsers, such as NetScape or Mozilla). The
following graphic illustrates the behavior.
Internet Explorer pops up this

information bar and blocks the
content.
Landmark
Temporary Solution
If you want to view the help file, click the bar and select Allow Blocked Content from the drop-
down menu. A warning dialog will appear, which you must acknowledge by clicking Yes. Now
you will be able to view the help page. This will occur each time you access the help.
Permanent Solution
You may choose to permanently allow Internet Explorer to view Active Content on local files. This will
prevent the warning from appearing again. The permanent solution is to turn off the security check for
active content in the Internet Explorer.
To turn off the active content security check in the Internet Explorer for the local machine:
1. From the Tools menu in Internet Explorer, select Internet Options.
2. Navigate to the Advanced tab in the Internet Options dialog and then scroll down to
the Security section.
Draft
3. Enable the checkbox labeled Allow active content to run in files on My Computer.
Please note that this may allow malicious active content in files on your local computer to cause
problems, so you should only do this if you feel confident in your computer's security
measures.
Cannot Open Help Files Located On A Server After You Install Security Update
896358 Or Security Update 840315
For Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server, installing recent Microsoft security updates
(896354 and 840315) mean that .chm files (HTMLHelp) may not display correctly under some
circumstances. The problems do not occur if the help files are on a local drive (rather than a
mapped drive).
After installing these Microsoft security updates on a server machinewhere .chms (HTML
Help files) are stored for viewing and downloadingif you open a .chm file sitting on that
server, you will receive an Action Cancelled error on the .Help file's viewer frame. The TOC
and Index display normally. No matter which topic you try to view using the TOC or Index, an
Unable to open this web page message appears in the .Help file's viewer frame. This problem
does not occur if the help files are on a local drive (rather than a server or mapped drive).
The reason for this is that the Microsoft security updates disable all Internet Security zones
except the Local Machine zone.
If the help files reside on a server or mapped drive, you can apply the fixes suggested in one or
more of the following Microsoft knowledgebase articles in order to access the help:
Landmark
KB902225 if the help file does not open at all

(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/902225)
KB896054 if the help file opens, and displays the index but no contents
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896054)
IMPORTANT! The Microsoft Knowledge Base fixes (KB896054 and KB902225) require
adjusting the registry on the server machine.
Be aware that you cannot solve this problem by adjusting the Security Zones feature in Internet Options in
Internet Explorer. It MUST be done via the servers registry. There is no other workaround other than moving
the Help files to the local machine.

Before You Install
ATTENTION: For the 5000.1 release, the installation has been broken up into three separate
installs, which should be run in this order:
Third-party components
EDM
Drilling & Completions applications
Stop the FLEX service and uninstall versions of LAM older than 5000.0.0 before you begin. Then run the Third-
party Components install. When it completes, run the EDM install. After it completes, install Drilling and
Completions applications.
For an outline of various installation scenarios, see Planning the EDT Installation (EDT_PlanningInstall.pdf). For
complete installation details, see the following online guides:
EDM Installation Guide (EDM_Install.pdf), and Engineers Desktop Drilling Installation Guide
(EDT_Drilling_Install.pdf).
Draft
To get going quickly, refer to Quick StartThe Installation Process in a Nutshell in the Planning the EDT
Installation guide.
Before installing Engineers Desktop 5000.1, review these release notes entirely. The release
notes provide you with necessary information about:
the applications in Engineers Desktop 5000.1
the hardware and operating systems on which you can run Engineers Desktop 5000.1
product dependencies
These release notes do not note all of new features or known problems for individual products; for
this information, consult the release notes of the individual products that you use.
Landmark
Installation Checklist
The applications found in Engineers Desktop 5000.1 require a certain order of installation. The
following checklist outlines the phases of the installation process.
Co-existing Versions:
EDT 5000.1can co-exist with previous versions of EDT on the same machine. However, LAM 5000
will not co-exist with previous versions of LAM on the same machine. Versions of LAM older than 5000 must
be uninstalled if you intend to run LAM 5000 locally.
To run EDT 5000.1 and a previous version of the EDT applications on the same machine, you must point one or
both versions of EDT to a LAM server located on a remote machine, since only one version of LAM can run
locally.
1. Once the database has been upgraded to 5000.1, you will no longer be able to access it using
the 2003.21 EDT applications. Consequently, if you want to be able to run both the 2003.21
and 5000.1 applications, make a copy of your 2003.21 database and upgrade the copy to
Draft
5000.1. (Note that you will have to point either your 2003.21 applications or your 5000.1
applications to the appropriate LAM server on a different machine.)
2. Upgrade the Operating System, if necessary. For Windows XP, SP2 must be installed for use
with FLEXnet Publisher LAM Client/Server. For Windows Vista, no Service Pack is needed.
For Windows 2003 Server, SP2 must be installed.
3. Install Oracle client. For Oracle 10g, you need the 10.02.00.03 version.
4. Before installing products you must have Adobe Acrobat Reader (you can download the latest
Reader from Adobes website: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.) to
read the available documentation.
5. Stop the FLEX service, then uninstall versions of LAM older than 5000 (using Add/Remove
Programs in the Control Panel)
6. Run the Third-Party Components install to ensure that you have required third-party
components, such as .NET 2.0, etc. You are asked to install LAM (License Applications
Manager) 5000either Utility (client) or Serverduring the Third-Party Components
installation.
7. Install EDM.
8. Install desired individual Drilling & Completions products.
Landmark
9. Obtain product licenses. See the LAM GuideLinux, Solaris, and Windows (LAM.pdf),
downloadable from the Tools branch of the Landmark Software Manager, for details.
10. Upgrade existing EDM databases to 5000.1. See the EDM Drilling Database Guide
(EDM_Drilling_Database.pdf) for details.
11. If you dont have an existing EDM database and want to create one on Oracle, see the EDM
Drilling Database Guide (EDM_Drilling_Database.pdf) for details.
12. You need to upgrade existing databases to 5000.1.
Automatic UpgradeNew for this release, the Multi-Version Database Upgrade

Utility will upgrade your database automatically. The utility can upgrade your
database from 2003.14 or higher to 5000.1.
IMPORTANT: If you have ever upgraded from a 2003.11 Oracle database...
then you cannot run the upgrade utility to upgrade to 5000.1 (due to a significant
2003.14 tablespace definitions change). In this case, call Landmark Support.
Draft
Manual UpgradeIf you prefer to do the upgrades manually, you must migrate
any existing pre-2003.11 databases to 2003.11; then upgrade sequentially from
2003.11 to 2003.14 to 2003.16 to 2003.21 to 5000.1. The version of EDM you are
currently on determines the upgrade path you must take. Refer to the EDM Drilling
Database Guide for details.
13. Before attempting to run PROFILE, if you will be exporting PROFILE WallPlot Composer
schematics to JPG file format, Windows color depth should be adjusted to a resolution higher
than 256-bit.
Official 5000.1.0 Database Version

The official 5000.1 release database version is 09.00.00.115.
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Install Behavior with SQL Server
2005 Client/SQL Server 2005
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express is the standalone database provided with the Engineers
Desktop 5000.1 release, replacing MSDE. Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express provides local
data storage compatible with Microsoft SQL Server 2005. It is designed and optimized for use on
smaller computer systems, such as a single-user computer or a very small workgroup server (five
users or less).
Microsofts utility for installing Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express is included within the
Landmark
Landmark Engineers Desktop 5000.1 install program. The behavior of the Microsoft SQL Server
2005 Express install on a PC is different if the PC already has Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Client
installed or SQL Server 2005 itself. Landmark has no control over this Microsoft SQL Server
2005 Express install behavior, as these are Microsofts own installation tools. Complete
documentation of this behavior and recommended installation procedures are provided in the
installation guide. These instructions enable a client to successfully install Engineers Desktop
and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express without affecting existing SQL Server 2005 Client
applications. It is important that clients using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Client or SQL Server
2005 review the installation instructions thoroughly before attempting to install Engineers
Desktop 5000.1.

Engineers Desktop 5000.1 Installation
The InstallShield will install EDM and the Engineers Desktop applications you select. For
convenience, the installation program groups applications into three natural combinations:
Engineers Data Model (EDM)
Drilling Engineering applications
Drilling Data Management applications
Landmark
These combinations are detailed below.
Engineers Data Model Combination
This Installation Combination Installs

Engineers Data Model By default, selecting Engineers Data Model includes the database
plus the following common components:
EDM Database
Catalog Editor
Unit Converter
EDM Report Manager
Field Office Data Transfer (Drilling)
EDM to OpenWorks Link
EDM Publishing Service
EDM Services Controller and associated Windows services
You can elect to install the following:
SQL Server 2005 Express Database

EDM Administration Utility
Draft
SQL Server Utility
Drilling Data Migration
Database Upgrade Utilities
Database Creation
Database Update
EDM Database
EDM (Engineers Data Model) is Landmarks newest integrated database product. This release
of Engineers Desktop 5000.1 enables the migration of legacy data from COMPASS,
WELLPLAN, and DIMS applications into the new common database. CasingSeat and
StressCheck can directly import legacy data files. Common data from each legacy database can
be merged into one set of shared business objects, preventing future duplication of information.
The EDM database allows for centralization of Drilling application data sets and enables
naturally integrated engineering workflows. Integrated workflows are available between
Drilling applications.
Catalog Editor
(Drilling) Catalogs are used as equipment selection lists to design a casing, tubing, liner, or
drillstring. Read-only system catalogs are distributed with the software. Additional custom
catalogs can be created that will allow changes. A catalog can be copied and pasted (including
read-only catalogs); copied catalogs are editable and can be customized. Custom catalogs are
useful because the catalog content can be customized to the available pipes or other drilling
Landmark
products used by the company. A catalog can be locked to prevent changes. You can also merge
catalogs.
The Catalog Editor application allows you to edit the catalog selected in the Well Explorer.
Rig Editor
The Rig Editor utility allows you to enter information regarding the identity and properties of
the rig, derrick, related equipment, and capacities. In WELLPLAN, StressCheck, and
CasingSeat, this utility opens when you right-click on a contractor. COMPASS users can enter
rig information by selecting Rig Editor from the Start > Landmark Engineers Desktop
5000.1 > Tools menu. In OpenWells, a rig and contractor information can be modified in the
Contractors tab of the Well Explorer.
Unit Converter
Use the Unit Converter application to convert a numeric value from one unit measurement
system to an equivalent unit measurement system based on unit types (categories) defined in
Draft
the database.
EDM Report Manager

This application is used to generate, view, save, and send Output Reports created with the EDT
Drilling and Completions applications and is available to applications such as OpenWells,
PROFILE, WELLPLAN, and COMPASS. Landmark plans to implement this Report Manager
in other EDM applications in future releases.
Field Office Data Transfer (Drilling)

The Field Office Data Transfer application is used to transfer the database hierarchy, wells,
wellbores, events, and reports between EDM databases. It also has an option to import and
export site and picklist metadata information. Data can be sent through the LAN or through
Dial Up Networking. Data can be transferred through email or FTP. Two Windows Services
must be run in the background for the receiving EDM database: Email Watcher, and Data
Receiver. A dedicated PC is normally used for this purpose.
Email Watcher scans the recipient's email for attached data transfer files. Once a file is
received, it is moved to the receiving directory. When using FTP, the data is ftpd to the
receiving directory. The Data Receiver service monitors for newly imported files in the
receiving directory and automatically uploads the data transfer file contents into the EDM
database.
Additionally, the Field Office Data Transfer allows for Status updates, so when data is sent the
sender can come back at a later time and update the status information, which grabs the log file
on the receiver and updates the sender with the current status of the transfer.
Landmark
The Field Office Data Transfer application also contains a Well Explorer, from which you can
Import or Export, create nodes, edit properties, etc., as you can in the other EDM applications.
EDM to OpenWorks Link

EDM-OpenWorks Link is a tool that enables you to map wells in the selected EDM database
to projects in the selected OpenWorks database. This association between databases is called
mapping. EDM to OpenWorks Link supports OpenWorks version 5000.0.1.
EDM Publishing Service

The EDM Publishing Service is a configuration utility and Windows service that enables
automated or manual generation and/or email distribution of OpenWells Reports in printed
(hard copy) or electronic (.PDF) format.
EDM Services Controller

The EDM Services Controller runs in the Windows System Tray and enables EDM Services to
Draft
be configured, started, stopped, and restarted. The following Services are managed by the EDM
Services Controller: LGC EDM Data Receiver (Email), LGC EDM Data Receiver (File
System), LGC EDM Simultaneous Activity Monitor, and LGC EDM Publishing.
SQL Server Utility

This utility replaces the MSDE Administration Utility, and is used with SQL Server 2005 and
SQL Server 2005 Express. Use the SQL Server Utility to perform the following functions:
Install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express if it is not present on the local machine
Create a blank copy of the EDM database
Attach an EDM database file to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express
Create two default users for new Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express databases:
username: EDM, password: landmark (Default application user)
username: EDM_SA, password: landmark (Administration only).
Compress existing Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express databases
Detach existing Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express databases
Drilling Data Migration Utility

The migration of pre-2003.5 COMPASS and WELLPLAN legacy data to EDM is a three-step
process using the Data Migration Toolkit provided with the Engineers Desktop 5000.1 release.
Legacy DIMS data can also be migrated using this toolkit. Tubular casing design data from
StressCheck and CasingSeat applications is not migrated using this process. After installing
EDM, CasingSeat and StressCheck users may import legacy data sets in either .SCK, .PDI, or
.XML format from previous versions directly into EDM using the File > Import menu within
Landmark
the applications. To accomplish the migration of data from pre-2003.5 databases to EDM, the
following tools are used:
Drilling Field Mapping Tool

Drilling Data Migration Tool
EDM Data Merging Tool
This data migration process is critical to ensure integrity of the EDM data set created. Further
information of the Data Migration process is available in the EDT Drilling Migration Guide
document included with the EDT 5000.1 Release.
After the data migration, the first time that COMPASS is launched it re-calculates definitive
surveys for new data based on the survey program and survey station data.
If you install WELLPLAN, the WELLPLAN 2000 wfw Migration utility will also be
installed. This utility allows you to migrate .wfw transfer files from WELLPLAN 2000 into
EDM.

Drilling Engineering Combination
This Installation Combination Installs

Drilling Engineering COMPASS
CasingSeat
StressCheck
Well Cost
WELLPLAN
COMPASS
The COMputerized Planning and Analysis Survey System, is a comprehensive software tool
used by oil companies and directional drilling contractors for directional well design and
construction. COMPASS offers a fast and accurate means of well planning and identification
of potential directional drilling or anti-collision problems at the earliest possible stage.
It includes all the features required for complex well trajectory design, survey and anti-collision
monitoring, and analysis. COMPASS also includes tools for survey data management, multiple
planning methods, torque-drag optimization, anti-collision plotting, and analysis, and platform
optimization.
CasingSeat
Landmarks CasingSeat application is used to design viable schemes consisting of casing shoe
setting depths and casing sizes. It provides rigorous shoe selection calculation routines to
Landmark
optimize shoe locations based on pore pressure, fracture gradients and user-defined design
constraints. It features inventory-based management of permissible hole and casing size
combinations. The application provides layer- and lithology-based characterization of
subsurface boundary conditions and operating constraints, including those associated with
wellbore stability, minimum overbalance, and differential sticking.
CasingSeat is fully integrated with StressCheck, enabling a precise engineering workflow for
more detailed design and stress load analysis of the casing design.
StressCheck
Landmarks StressCheck application is a graphics-based casing design product for Microsoft
Windows. It incorporates an array of attributes to enable the user to quickly, systematically,
and accurately evaluate casing wear limits, minimum cost design, and working-stress design
for burst, collapse, axial installation, and service-life load cases.
StressCheck is based on casing design principles that are broadly accepted and employed in the
petroleum industry. CasingSeat and StressCheck are referred to as Tubular applications.
Draft
Well Cost
Landmark created Well Cost so that Drilling and Completion Engineers could quickly perform
accurate and efficient cost and planning operation analysis throughout the life of a well. Well
Cost provides engineers with the ability to generate cost estimates for either low-level
budgeting purposes (such as during initial project scope), or the more detailed Authorization
for Expenditure (AFE).
Well Cost is Landmark's replacement for DrillModel, a tool that provides deterministic Cost
AFE analysis but does not offer probabilistic modeling and is not integrated with other
applications or databases. Well Cost places a powerful tool in the hands of engineers that is:
integrated with OpenWells and EDM
capable of performing deterministic and probabilistic analysis
flexible and easy to configure
intuitive and easy to use with an interface that is similar to other Engineer's Desktop
applications.
WELLPLAN
WELLPLAN is Landmarks drilling engineering analysis system designed for use at the rig site
and the office to provide both well planning and operations analysis. The different engineering
Landmark
modules of WELLPLAN are seamlessly integrated and address aspects of data collection,
analysis, well planning, and modeling.
WELLPLAN can be used to improve well designs, prevent stuck pipe and BHA failures,
prevent drilling problems, and essentially drill the right wells the first time at a lower cost.
General well information is entered through common editors to enable basic Case data
components to be entered (e.g., wellbore editor, string editor, fluid editor, and survey editor).
These editors are generally available in most WELLPLAN modules depending on which
module or mode of analysis is being used. Additional data required for particular analyses are
entered using editors available within each analysis module (e.g., Torque/Drag Actual Loads,
Cement Job Editor, etc.).
Data Management Combination
This Installation Combination Contains

Data Management Data Analyzer
OpenWells, including
PSA CDRS Report Generator
Draft
Property Loader
Performance Reviews
PROFILE
Real-Time View
Data Analyzer
Data Analyzer provides an easy-to-use, powerful tool for EDT Drilling & Completions users,
which enables them to realize maximum value from their captured well operations and
engineering information. Data Analyzer provides all user levels the ability to quickly and easily
build simple and complex ad-hoc queries against drilling and well services data. Ad-hoc
queries can be generated, with the user selecting from the same user-defined labels and data
input structure that they are familiar with in the applications.
OpenWells
Landmark's latest Drilling, Completions, and Well Servicesand now Construction and
Reclamationoperations reporting application, OpenWells, is a fully integrated and
comprehensive, communications, analysis and corporate engineering information data
management system. It is used to capture information for all operations across the entire well
life cycle.
Wellsite operations reporting offers a new look and feel by taking advantage of the flexibility
of a new Java-based architecture and Landmark's Engineers Data Model (EDM) to provide
integration between Drilling, Completions, Well Services, and Production products.
OpenWells shares a common database with CasingSeat, StressCheck, COMPASS,
WELLPLAN, Data Analyzer, PROFILE, Well Cost, and Real-Time View. All products also
Landmark
have consistent Data Management, Navigation, Security, Data Synchronization, Unit

Management, Geodetic, and Depth Reference Datum Elevation systems. Consistent user
interface components and methods have been implemented wherever possible between all
EDM applications to provide the user with a consistent experience across applications.
You can configure OpenWells to meet the specific needs of a company through customizable
Data Entry Forms, Preview Panes, Output Reports, and the Unit Management System.
The following components are available in OpenWells:
OpenWells Performance Reviews: OpenWells Performance Reviews assists operators,

performance engineers, supervisors, and system administrators to extract, edit and manage
drilling performance information for review and submission to the Rushmore Reviews
operations performance benchmarking system. Engineers are able to quickly extract,
modify and manage Rushmore submissions sourced directly from their OpenWells
operations reports saving them time and money.
Using Rushmore Drilling Performance Reviews (DPR), operators are able to measure and
compare their known drilling performance, for all wells in a given region or country over a
given year, against the drilling performance of their peers in the industry. This enables
Draft
operators to determine best-in-class performance as well as improve benchmarks for future
well planning processes. OpenWells Performance Reviews provides engineers with a
valuable utility to populate their submissions direct from their well operations reports. This
first release of Performance Reviews is limited to the Drilling Performance Reviews (DPR)
submission only. A future release (2007) will extend the offering to support Rushmore's
Completions Performance Review (CPR).
A separate application developed on the OpenWells framework, OpenWells Performance

Reviews enables the user to create a new DPR data set for one or more selected operations
(Events). This includes the ability to segment an Event by date where it includes multiple
operations e.g., 'Drill & Complete'. Once the operations and wellbores have been selected
for the new DPR extract, the operations performance data is extracted from the OpenWells-
entered reports and saved to a separate DPR data set. An editor enables the engineer to
review the extracted performance data, make additions to Rushmore-specific areas and save
the data. To support Rushmore reporting. the Wellbore Properties area of OpenWells Well
Explorer in Performance Reviews (only) has also been extended to support two new data
entry tabs:
Details - Performance Indicators (Yes/No values)

Drilling - Drilling Methods and Techniques
Once the performance data has been prepared for Submission, a DPR Submission Wizard
enables the user to generate an Excel spreadsheet to the Rushmore Reviews DPR format.
Data can be submitted to 'ft' or 'm' depth units. Once generated, the Excel spreadsheet is
saved with the submission data set as an internal attachment which can be opened up within
the module.
Landmark
Property Loader: Property Loader is a financials integration utility provided with

OpenWells that enables operators to initialize new Wells, Events and AFEs using
information auto-populated from 3rd party financials systems. A 'PL' staging area within the
EDM database schema is available which operators can configure their financials systems
to populate. Once populated, the Property Loader application is used by the Well Planner to
validate the staged data and create new wells.
PROFILE
PROFILE enables any engineer, from a rig supervisor to a completions engineer to a business
analyst, to quickly visualize currently installed and historical wellbore information and
downhole equipment in the form of wellbore schematics and reports. This allows them to be
updated quickly with the current well configuration and history.
Real-Time View
Real-Time View is a new time-based log viewing environment integrated into the Engineers
Desktop. Real-Time View provides operators with the ability to display and output
Draft
configurable drilling, completions, and workover data logs integrated with operations report
information entered at the rigsite. Using WITSML, real-time data can be imported into EDM
via OpenWire. LAS or ASCII log data can also be imported into EDM. Real-Time View
provides a user-configurable log viewing environment with various display options available
to enable engineers to review rig and downhole equipment operations in context with the rigsite
supervisors interpretation of the rig operation. Therefore, Real-Time View enables operations
and well-planning teams to review decisions taken at the wellsite, perform detailed after-action
reviews, and identify situations that may lead to NPT.
Landmark

Remember to reboot your computer before attempting to use the Engineers Desktop. If you run
into problems, please refer to the Installation Troubleshooting section of the EDM Installation
Guide or the EDT Drilling Installation Guide.
Landmark
Site Configuration File Import Required Post-Install
Site configuration files are installed in the file system for speed, and also stored in the database for
portability. Site configuration files include printed reports and various files required for EDM
configuration.
If you are upgrading from a previous version of the database, Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server
2005 Express (replacement for MSDE) users will have the latest configuration files imported
automatically.
For new installations:
Oracle users must import site configuration files after building a new database. Site
configuration files are imported using the EDM Administration Utility (refer to the Import
Site Config section in the EDM Drilling Database Guide).
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express users who install the reference SQL Server 2005
Express database will also need to import site configuration files after installing, to
overwrite a few files with their latest versions (refer to the Import Site Config section in
Draft
the EDM Drilling Database Guide as indicated above.)
Landmark
Licensing
Landmark's Application Manager (LAM) is the license system used to control access to Landmark
applications. LAM is based on Macrovision's FLEXnet Publisher. A new LAM version is required
for the 5000.1 release. You cannot have both Release 2003 and Release 5000.x license files
running on the same machine.
IMPORTANT! If you have a 2003 version of LAM, YOU MUST STOP THE FLEX SERVICE, THEN
UNINSTALL LAM 2003 before installing LAM 5000.
Failure to uninstall all previous versions of LAM before installing LAM 5000 will result in a duplicate FLEXnet
Publisher service that replicates itself until it crashes Windows.
The procedures for uninstalling LAM are detailed in the section LAM Uninstall in the LAM GuideLinux,
Solaris, and Windows (LAM.pdf).
To run EDT 5000.1 and a previous version of the EDT applications on the same machine, you must point one or
both versions of EDT to a LAM server located on a remote machine, since only one version of LAM can run
locally.
Draft
FLEXnet Publisher licensing is available for networked application and standalone application
use. FLEXnet Publisher standalone licensing may be used in conjunction with a network card or
through a FLEXnet Publisher dongle (bitlock) where no PC network identification is possible.
Netsecure, Sentinel bitlocks and Crypkey have been discontinued by Landmark and are not
supported by Release 5000.1 products.
LAM 5000.1 for Windows now includes a utility called Mobile Checkout, which allows you to
Borrow (temporarily check out) a network license to use when a computer, such as a laptop, is
disconnected from the network. Performing a Borrow writes encrypted information on your laptop
which preserves a mobile license for the user when disconnected from the network. The license can
then be used on an individual computer for a time specified when the user checks out the license.
The license is returned to the server licenses when either the user uses the early return procedure
or the specified time limit is reached. When a license is checked out the number of available
licenses on the server is reduced by one. All Drilling applications except OpenWire can utilize the
Borrow feature in the Mobile Checkout utility. For more information, refer to the LAM Guide
Linux, Solaris, and Windows.
For the Engineers Desktop applications to run, EDM 5000.1 applications require that an EDM
license feature is available from the customer's licensing server. The EDM license is handled as a
Group Checkout for each application user on a particular PC. Only one EDM license is checked
out for all Engineer's Desktop applications run by a user on a single machine. Therefore, clients
will need to acquire a set of EDM licenses based on their expected concurrent user level. Please
contact your local Landmark representative for EDM licensing.
You must obtain new licenses for all Release 5000.1 products.
Landmark
To re-license, customers must contact their local Landmark representative. Refer to the LAM
GuideLinux, Solaris, and Windows (LAM.pdf) for details. (Remember to uninstall previous
versions of LAM before installing the 5000.1 release.)
Licensing Drilling & Completions applications via TSORDERS
When licensing Landmark applications via the Halliburton Halworld site, TSORDERS, it is important to ensure
that when the Drilling Applications option is chosen from the Drilling section, the EDM option is also chosen
from the IMI section. This is because the Drilling Applications option does not include an EDM licence and thus
none of the newly licensed applications will work when you try to run them unless an EDM licence has previously
been added to the license file.
Basics of Installing a License File
You can install LAM on either a client machine, or install LAM as a license server. Refer to the
LAM GuideLinux, Solaris, and Windows (LAM.pdf) for complete details, but the basics are

Enhancements and New Functionality

The 5000.1 release of Engineers Desktop supports Microsoft Vista, has new LAM (FLEXnet
Publisher) licensing, Mobile Checkout licensing, and contains some critical bug fixes.
In addition to EDM database changes, a number of workflow improvements and usability
enhancements were made to the Drilling & Completions applications to provide for consistent
data management and user interaction with these products. More complete enhancement
descriptions for each of the Engineers Desktop applications are provided in their respective
release notes. This document will detail new EDT functionality and user interface components
shared between the Drilling applications.
Enhancements for releases 2003.21, 2003.22 (OpenWells), and 5000.1 include the following:
Common Well Explorer Enhancements
For 5000.1, the Common Well Explorer includes the following enhancements:
Draft
Added a Location tab to Site and Well Properties dialogs. This tab displays any location
information that was added in COMPASS.
Anisotropic Radial, Hoop Yields, and Temperature Deration have been moved from Material
Properties to Grade Properties.
XML imports/exports have been modified so that they dont carry unnecessary tubular
properties that are not used by the corresponding assemblies.
For 2003.21, the Common Well Explorer includes the following enhancements:
Catalogs were added for Well Completion components, and support for these catalogs was
added to OpenWells, PROFILE, WELLPLAN, and Catalog Editor.
Added Well Explorer Virtual Folders to the Well Explorer tree. These folders allow users to
organize data items (such as Projects, Wells, Designs, etc.) in a customizable hierarchy. Virtual
Folders can be up to three levels deep.
Integrated WITSML v. 1.2 support to allow the creation of OpenWire 2003.0.8 pipelines from
the Well Explorer tree to load data into the EDM database directly from a remote WITSML
server. This functionality is in COMPASS and WELLPLAN.
OpenWire 2003.0.8 can be launched directly from the Well Explorer with a right-click menu
command at the Database level.
Formations added to the Associated Data Viewer to allow formations to be copied between
Designs. This functionality is in CasingSeat, WELLPLAN, COMPASS, and PROFILE.
New assemblies added to the Associated Data Viewer with copy/paste functionality: Casing,
Tubing, and Drillstrings. Not valid for Actual Designs.
Landmark
General Integration Enhancements
For 5000.1, various integration improvements were made for this release. These features include:
Users will now be warned when their product license is about to expire.
Mobile Checkout licensing has been added, allowing users to check out a license from the
license server before disconnecting from the network. Licenses can be borrowed for a specific
period, after which the license is no longer valid on the offline computer and is made available
again on the license server.
Definitive Survey Locking has been implemented. The Definitive Survey is the composite
survey for a wellbore from surface to bottom hole (TD). It is used as the reference survey in
anti-collision calculations, which are regarded as safety critical in well operations. The
Definitive Survey is shared across several applications (Openwells, PROFILE, Stresscheck,
WELLPLAN) but can only be edited in COMPASS, which is the main application for
managing directional survey information. To improve security of the definitive survey, a two-
pronged approach has been taken: (1) Token-based locking mechanism, and (2) Definitive
Survey locking mechanism.
The Token-Based Lock mechanism is an alternative to the password protected method of
Draft
managing and using the Lock checkboxes in the Well / Contractor Explorer property dialogs.
This new mechanism makes it possible to define who can lock any particular item within the
Well / Contractor explorer hierarchy on a per group and/or user basis.
The Token-Based Lock mechanism is enabled by setting the

UseLockSecurityTokens system setting to TRUE.
To support this new method lock tokens have been added to EDM for each
property dialog. If a group or user is granted the lock token for a property dialog
they will have the ability to lock the information within that dialog. If the token is
revoked the lock field for that property dialog will be disabled for that user or group.
The Token-Based Lock mechanism operates independently of any Locked Data
passwords set at the Company level. Users will not be prompted with warning or
password dialogs when enabling or disabling a locked field.
The Definitive Survey Lock field is a new checkbox added to the Survey Program tab in the
Actual Design properties dialog. Enabling the Definitive Survey Lock performs the following
actions:
The Survey Program for the Actual Design is locked

The Vertical Section for the Actual Design is locked
Any Survey that contributes to the Survey Program is locked. This includes surveys
in parent wellbore designs that contribute to the sidetrack definitive path defined by
the locked survey program.
The Definitive Survey Lock field is only available within the COMPASS Actual Design
properties dialog. If the Definitive Survey Lock has been set in COMPASS, OpenWells will
treat the affected survey data as read only.
Landmark

634540 Reporting Engine: Report Manager not staying active for reports run in PROFILE.
(Fixed)
701247 Runtime: A number of picklists get deleted from the database after a migration.
(Fixed)
702735 Well Explorer: Hazards selection interface in Well Properties implemented
inconsistently. (Fixed)
703081 Data Services: WELLPLAN crashes on deleting (in OpenWells) an Instant Case
created in WELLPLAN. (Fixed)
703379 Reporting Engine: Web/scroll wheel doesnt work when previewing the COMPASS
reports. (Fixed)
Draft
715048 Data Services: COMPASS crashes when you do a backup at the default location.
(Fixed)
719181 Data Services: Daily Operations Data Entry forms Arrive/Depart Checklist data not
visible after Wellbore level export. (Fixed)
721451 Data Model: Manual run of database update (Oracle) throws missing or invalid option
error. (Fixed)
721543 Data Model: MEASURE_GAL_HR unit is incorrect on database update. (Fixed)
722852 Data Model: Coring report fields DM_CORE.interval_base and
DM_CORE.interval_top need to be flagged as depth datum affected. (Fixed)
725895 Data Services: Copying wellpath from another design creates duplicate 0 depths.
(Fixed)
723612 Data Synchronization: OpenWells and Field/Office Data Transfer track Report
Transfer status differently. (Fixed)
726576 Citrix: Error generated in Citrix environment when migrating data (COMPASS For
Windows import). Workaround: Assign read/write rights to the data transfer
properties file on the Citrix server. (Fixed)
727011 Reporting Engine: After a few reports are open in Report Manager, additional reports
fail with out of memory issues.
727988 Citrix: Citrix Virtual Memory Optimization incompatible with some applications;
applications fail to launch; the logon dialog box does not appear. This is a known
issue with Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Manager 4s new Virtual Memory
Landmark
Optimization feature. Workaround: Either turn off the Virtual Memory Optimization
feature, and re-install the applications. Applications will now launch properly.
Alternatively, a list of specific DLLs and executables can be disabled without
requiring Virtual Memory Optimization to be turned off (refer to the EDT Citrix
Guide). Citrix may address this issue in future releases. (Fixed)
728606 Localization: For Chinese localization, OpenWells hangs while changing language in
status bar when OpenWells Well Explorer dialog is open. Workaround: Add the
following environment variableEnableMultiLanguage (MUST be set to the value
'true')to allow multi-language input system, such as Chinese, to work correctly with
OpenWells. Other Drilling applications that re-use parts of OpenWells (Lessons
Learned and Find dialogs, for example) will also need this environment variable.
(Fixed)
728802 All applications: System filters for the new Find feature in the Well Explorer tree
are only available for the installed user. Other users (for example, Citrix or client-
server users who did not install the software using their userid) will have to copy the
system filter *.query files to their local user directory. The local user directory is
where the applications look for the *.query files used for by the Find feature. These
*.query files can be copied from the following location (which is the local user
Draft
directory of the person who installed the software):
C:\Documents and
Settings\<InstallUserID)\ApplicationData\Landmark\OpenWells\Queries\Drilling.
(Fixed)
729229 Runtime: Data Migration Tool shuts down automatically during post-migration
process (Oracle only). No errors. (Fixed)

picklists. (Fixed)
733747 Reporting Engine: Report Manager should filter fields used in .rpt file. (Fixed)
737110 Admin Utility: When importing Site Configuration files, the Date is invalid. (Fixed)
775560 Installation: Error 1718: File <filename> was rejected by signature policy. This
Windows 2003 Server issue occurs when the Windows Installer has insufficient
memory allocated and therefore cannot verify that the *.msi or *.msp package
contains a valid digital signature. WORKAROUND: Install Microsoft hotfix
KB925336 at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925336.
781431 A SQL Server/MSDE/SQL Server Express Database Name cannot have a dot (.) in
it. If your EDM Database Name has a dot (.) in it, the Database Upgrade will not work
properly. (For example, the Database Name EDMDB will work, EDM.DB will
not). This does not affect your database Description (for example, EDM 2003.21)

Known Problems
The Engineers Desktop release has been a significant development effort intended to realize the
primary strategy of supplying integrated applications to the client that enable engineering
workflows. For each product, changing the application to support a new data model was a
significant challenge.
Engineers Desktop 5000.1 is being released with some outstanding issues that are known, but not
thought to prevent users from achieving the efficiency gains provided by these applications. The
following list of issues enables clients to compare observed application behavior against issues
known to Landmark at the time of release. These issues will be addressed in future releases of
EDT together with any additional issues reported by clients.

Running Drilling Applications

Once Engineers Desktop has been installed, the PC has been rebooted, and a network or
standalone license has been made available, the applications are ready for use.
This section outlines the steps involved in opening the Engineers Desktop Drilling applications
and configuring additional EDM data sources.
Starting the Engineers Desktop Applications
Engineers Desktop applications can be launched using the following methods:

EDM Login (default)
EDM Login (using Windows OS Authentication)
EDM Login (Default)
Draft
1. From the Windows Start menu, follow the menu path specified during the installation;
Start > Programs > Landmark Engineers Desktop 5000.1. >
Select the Engineers Desktop application to be opened (e.g., CasingSeat, COMPASS,

StressCheck, WELLPLAN, OpenWells, PROFILE, Data Analyzer, Real-Time View).
or
2. From the Windows Desktop, double-click on the application icon (e.g., WELLPLAN), if
desktop shortcuts were created during the install.
The application Login dialog appears.
This login dialog box will only appear when the first EDM application is started. When
subsequent EDM applications are started, they use the User ID and password that was entered
Landmark
for the first application (i.e., if WELLPLAN is open then there is no login required when
starting any of the other applications, such as StressCheck).
3. Select the EDM Data Source name from the drop-down picklist. The default EDM database
installed by the EDT Installer is EDM 5000.1 Single User Db. Other EDM data sources
may have been installed; ask your system administrator for the Data Source Name.
4. Enter the username and password. The default username and password is edm and
Landmark1 respectively, and click OK. Other user names may have been configured
within EDM by the client implementation teams.
The application window opens.
EDM Login (using Windows OS Authentication)
Your system administrator must have set the LGC_EDM_REMOTE_OS_AUTHENT

environment variable to TRUE before Windows OS Authentication will work.
Windows authentication is configured differently for SQL Server and Oracle. For complete
Draft
details on how to configure the security for Windows authentication for either database, refer to
the Windows Authentication topic in the EDM Administration Utility online Help.
After configuring Windows authentication security for your database, use the following steps to
launch your application using Windows authentication:
1. From the Windows Start menu, follow the menu path specified during the installation;
Start > Programs > Landmark Engineers Desktop 5000.1 >
Select the Engineers Desktop application to be opened (e.g., CasingSeat, COMPASS,

StressCheck, WELLPLAN, OpenWells, PROFILE, Data Analyzer, Real-Time View).
or
2. From the Windows Desktop, double-click on the application icon (e.g., WELLPLAN), if
desktop shortcuts were created during the install.
Landmark
The application Login dialog appears.
This login dialog box will only appear when the first EDM application is started. When
subsequent EDM applications are started, they use the User ID and password that was entered
for the first application (i.e., if WELLPLAN is open then there is no login required when
starting any of the other applications, such as StressCheck).
3. Select the EDM Data Source name from the drop-down picklist. The default EDM database
installed by the EDT Installer is EDM 5000.1 Single User Db. Other EDM data sources
Draft
may have been installed; ask your system administrator for the Data Source Name.
4. Select the Use Windows Authentication checkbox, and click OK. The User and Password
boxes will gray out, and your Windows OS login will be used.
The application window opens.
Note: If you have Oracle Wallet (Used by the OpenWorks client in conjunction with the EDM
to OpenWorks Link utility) installed on a client, Windows Authentication for Oracle will not
work (defect 785258).
Working with the Well Explorers
The Well Explorer can be used with each of the Engineers Desktop Drilling applications. It is
located by default on the left side of the application window. The Well Explorer functions much
like the Microsoft Windows Explorer and is organized as a hierarchical data tree, which you can
use to browse the EDM database at all levels. It can be used to perform database management
tasks, such as creating or modifying data objects, and is used to open engineering data sets for
analysis.
WELLPLAN, StressCheck, CasingSeat, and PROFILE share a common Well Explorer, used to
browse and manipulate the data hierarchy. COMPASS and OpenWells have their own versions of
the Well Explorer. The different Well Explorers are described below.

Well Explorer Icons
The following table displays Well Explorer icons (nodes) that are common to each EDM
Engineering application. (A node is a data item stored within the database that falls within the
EDM hierarchy.
Icon Description
EDM Database Icon - the EDM Database stores all

Company data sets and supporting tables.
Company Icon - a Company stores all field, project, or

asset data owned or operated by the Company.
Project Icon - a Project stores all Sites associated with
Draft
the Field or Project.
Site Icon - a Site is a collection of Wells. A site may be

a single land well, a sub-sea well, or offshore platform.
Well Icon - a Well is a surface location for one or more

Wellbores.
Wellbore Icon - a Wellbore is a unique wellpath or

trajectory from surface, or a tie on point to its total
depth.
Virtual Folder Icon - found in CasingSeat, COMPASS,

StressCheck, OpenWells, PROFILE, and
WELLPLAN. A Virtual Folder is a container that is
customized by the user to organize data within the
folder. Folders are added to any level above Event and
display an embedded icon inside the folder that
signifies the Well Explorer level where the folder
exists.
Catalog Icon - Catalogs are used to compile a list of
available drilling components and their properties.
These catalogs are used by each of the applications as a
selection list for equipment.
Landmark
Icon Description
Tubular Properties - Tubular Properties define the
physical properties of any unusual pipe grades or
special materials (such as corrosion resistant alloys), as
well as the deration of the material's yield strength as a
function of temperature.
Class - The Class Editor is used to compile a list of
tubular classes and associated properties.
Temperature Deration - The Temperature Deration

Editor is used to define the schedule used to derate the
minimum yield strength of a material as a function of
the temperature.
Materials - The Materials Editor is used to compile a
list of material types and associated properties. This list
is used as a selection list while defining a grade on the
Tubular Grade spreadsheet.
Grades - The Grades Editor is used to define the
Draft
physical properties of all pipe grades or special
materials (such as corrosion-resistant alloys) used in
the pipe inventory and catalog. The grades you define
will be used as a selection list when defining a
component using catalogs. (For example, you select a
grade in the String Sections Spreadsheet in
WELLPLAN.)
Depending on which application is open, the Well Explorer may also contain the following data
items, which are specific to certain applications.
Icon Description
Design Icon - found in CasingSeat, COMPASS,
StressCheck, OpenWells, PROFILE, and
WELLPLAN. A Design is a set of Cases that make up
part or all of the Well design. The symbol for a Design
comes in three versions:
Actual -
Planned -
Prototype -
Case Icon - found in WELLPLAN, a Case is a set of
data and engineering parameters to analyze a particular
operation, such as a BHA Run or Casing String.
Landmark
Icon Description
Event/Job Icon - found in OpenWells > Well Explorer
tree > Wells tab, an Event/Job is a time slice or period
marking a major phase of operations occurring at a
Well or a period of time when a rig or work unit is over
the Well performing an operation.
Completion Icon - found in OpenWells > Well
Explorer tree > Wells tab, a Completion is a system of
isolated wellbore openings, wellbore conduits, and
associated equipment which provide a means to
produce or inject fluid from or into producing zones.
Workspaces - A workspace is a template for how you

want tabs, panes, arrangement of plots within panes,
etc. to appear in WELLPLAN.
User Defined Workspace - System Workspaces are

read-only, and are shipped with the EDM database.
You may apply them, but not alter them. When you
import System workspaces, they will overwrite any
existing System workspaces.
Draft
Module Workspace - Module Workspaces will apply
automatically when you activate a given module
(Hydraulics, Surge, etc.). To save a workspace as a
module workspace, select File > Workspace > Save As
Default. It will automatically apply the module tool tip
name as the default module workspace name.
System Workspace - You can save any workspace as a
User Workspace, so long as it has a unique name.
Workspaces always have a .ws.xml extension.
The Associated Data Viewer
The Associated Data Viewer is located at the base of the Well Explorer for each of the Drilling
Engineering and Data Management applications. This viewer displays associated objects and data
for the selected node in the Well Explorer or OpenWells Report List (for example, attached
documents).
For detailed information on the Well Explorer for WELLPLAN, PROFILE, StressCheck, and
CasingSeat, see the online help for these applications.
Landmark
Working with the Well Explorer in COMPASS
Well Explorer in COMPASS is similar to Well Explorer in other applications in that you can use
its Browser Window, located on the top right section of the window, to navigate the EDM
database at several descending levels. The COMPASS version of Well Explorer contains
additional functionality required by a directional well planning and survey data management
application.
The COMPASS version of Well Explorer is a combined browser and status window for
navigating, managing, exporting and accessing COMPASS data. It is divided into three sections.
The section located on the left of the window is the Status Window. The top right section of the
window is the Browser Window, the bottom right section of the window is the Data Viewer, and
located above these three sections is a drop down picklist, Recent, containing a selection list of
locations within the tree that have been opened recently. The COMPASS version of Well Explorer
is always available. It can be minimized, but cannot be closed.
Draft
Landmark
The COMPASS version of Well Explorer will allow for navigation down to the Design level in
EDM. To open the Design level, double-click on the Design icon ( ), or use the right-click menu
click menu and select Open.
Double-click any level within the browser to open the next available item in the hierarchy. The
selected item will be reflected in the Status window. Depending on which level is open in the
browser also affects the available functionality in the menu and tool bars. Full functionality will
only occur if the lowest level in the hierarchy (i.e., Design level) is open.
When a Design is open, the user can access planning functionality through the Planning menu,
survey functionality through the Survey menu and anti-collision functionality through the
Anticollision menu.
For detailed information on the COMPASS version of Well Explorer, see the COMPASS online
help.
Working with the Well Explorer in OpenWells
Well Explorer in OpenWells is similar to Well Explorer in other applications in that you can use
its Browser Window, located on the top right section of the window, to navigate the EDM
Draft
database at several descending levels, including Companies, Projects, Sites, Wells, Wellbores,
Completions, Events, Rigs, Rig Operations, Rig Equipment and Virtual Folders. By default, the
OpenWells version of the Well Explorer looks like this:
Landmark
Draft
The OpenWells Well Explorer can contain as many as five tabs: Wells, Jobs, Contractors, C&R,
and Waste Management. Each tab displays a Well Explorer data tree. The active tab in the Well
Explorer will always appear normal while the inactive tabs will appear darkened.
To display the data hierarchy for one of these tabs, select the tab. The availability of the tabs in the
Well Explorer is dependant on the type of License your company has purchased and the active
license currently in use.
Landmark
Use the Left mouse button to expand or collapse branches of the data tree and to select nodes
within the data tree.
The right mouse button has a context sensitive menu. Depending on the hierarchical level you
have selected (Company, Project, Site, Well, etc.) the menu will populate with relevant options.
Most of these options can be found in the Main menubar.
The Well Explorer allows for drag and drop functionality between hierarchical levels. For
example, you can select a Project associated with one Company, and copy it to another Company.
You can only copy the level, and not the children to that level. Therefore, if you copy a Project
from one Company to another, you must then copy each associated Site, Well, Wellbore, etc.
individually. These levels do not automatically get copied when you copy the Project.
To refresh the Well Explorer press the F5 key. This will also refresh the Preview and Reports
Panes.
Two clicks (not a double click) on a node will allow the user to rename the node without having to
open the nodes Properties page. To do this click the node once to selected it and then click on it
again to enter edit mode. Enter the new name and press enter to view the change in the Well
Explorer.
Draft
For detailed information on the OpenWells version of Well Explorer, see the OpenWells online
help.
Concurrency and Multi-User Support
The 5000.1 release of EDM supports full concurrency for multiple applications using the same
data set. The SAM (Simultaneous Activity Monitor) server moderates the activity. This
messaging server notifies a user of all data items currently open by other applications and users
sharing the same database.
SAM in the Application Status Bar
The SAM icon appears in the application Status Bar as follows:
Message Description
A green SAM icon in the status bar indicates that the
Messenger Service is active. If a tooltip is available, the
message "SAM-Connected" will be displayed.
A green SAM icon with a red X on it indicates that the

Messenger Service is not currently active. If a tooltip is
available, the message "SAM-Disconnected" will be
displayed.
Landmark
Message Description
A red SAM icon in the status bar indicates the SAM service
is enabled but has lost connectivity. Hover over the icon to
display the tooltip "SAM - No longer responding"
No icon When no icon appears in the application status bar, this

indicates that the Simultaneous Activity Monitor has not
been configured for the application.
SAM in the Well Explorer
If a data item is open, one of the following icons will appear on the
node icon.
Icon Description
A red SAM icon indicates that one or more users on other PCs have
this item open, and the current user is restricted to read-only access.
Draft
A blue SAM icon indicates that one or more users on the current
database have this item open, but the current user still has full read-
write access. A user must be careful when making changes to the
data, though this method enables data to automatically flow
between applications. Intentional updates to other live applications
should be anticipated before saving changes.
The first user to open a data item becomes the data item's owner. They
will 'own' the data until they have completed any changes, saved the
data item, and closed it. When another user opens the data item through
an EDM application, they can see that the data item is currently being
accessed by the first user, the owner. This other user can access the data
item but will be unable to save any changes until the owner has closed
it.To view a list of users, applications, and machines that have the data
item open, hover the mouse over the item; a data listing tooltip will
appear.
In COMPASS, WELLPLAN, CasingSeat and StressCheck, SAM

appears over any open Designs to signify that the Design is open by
other users. As OpenWells does not display the Design level of the Well
Explorer, SAM appears over the Wellbore, which contains the open
Design. To determine which users have the data set open, hover the
cursor over the SAM icon appearing in the Well Explorer; a list of users
Landmark
and machine names accessing the Design is displayed along with the
users current permissions.
For each application instance that is accessing the data item, the tooltip
displays the user name (Windows account), EDM application, machine
name, and flags to indicate the type of access available to the current
user.
RW - indicates that the current user has read-write access
Draft
RO - indicates that the current user has read-only access
When a node is created, deleted, or its properties have changed, the

Well Explorer tree is automatically updated for all other users.
SAM support in OpenWells also includes open Data Entry Forms,

Survey Headers, and Well Planning information shared with
WELLPLAN. For more information, see the OpenWells on-line help.
Reload Notification
A reload notification dialog appears when the owner of the active data
item saves changes to the database. SAM then notifies any other EDM
applications of the changes. The change notification dialog is then
offered to the user to reload or ignore the data owner's changes, or
cancel the dialog box. The dialog that appears displays the user name
for the owner and the application in which the changes were made. This
Landmark
enables the user to identify the source of the change that has been
posted.
Reload
The Reload option results in the owner's changes being uploaded into
the current application.
Ignore
Draft
The Ignore option gives the user the ability to ignore the owner's
changes and continue working with their current data item.
The user may choose to ignore the updates if they own the data item in
another application.
In this instance they may choose to save later and overwrite changed
data in the other application as a result.
The user with read-only access to the data item may choose to ignore
the owner's changes in order to continue looking at the previous state of
the data. They may also perform a Save As operation in order to save
the current data before reloading the changes. WELLPLAN does not
support Save As functionality for read-only access.
Use the Do not ask the question again checkbox to avoid receiving
any other reload notifications. This checkbox option is not remembered
between sessions. If the user restarts an application, they must activate
the checkbox the first time it appears in order to stop the appearance of
the reload notifications.
Cancel
The Cancel option gives the user the opportunity to cancel the dialog. If
this option is selected the Do not ask the question again checkbox is
ignored.
Landmark
Complete details on SAM settings can be found in the EDM Administration Utility online help.
A good practice for any multi-user EDM environment is to frequently use the 'F5' refresh key to
refresh the Well Explorer contents.
Security
The 5000.1 applications and EDM database require only one user name and password when
logging on to the database.
You can set security for applications, User Groups, Tight Groups, and Users. Refer to the EDM
Security Model topic in the EDM Administrative Utility online help for details.
