Hard Copy Cataloguing (CS8)
  CS8 (Rev) - Hardcopy Cataloguing - PDF Download

1.0 PURPOSE
1.1 To be able to uniquely and rigorously identify and catalogue all hard copy items.
1.2 To be able to sort hardcopy items by type.
1.3 To be able to automatically flag data items as Basic Set.

2.0 STANDARD
2.1 Each hard copy well item will be catalogued at three distinct levels:
a. The Well it relates to
b. The Services run
c. Specific descriptive terms for each Item

2.2 These are all detailed below. Each index term defined has a description for that term together with a format for the data. (Mandatory items are marked ** at all levels.)

2.3 At Well level the following only needs to be indexed as all well data is linked to this well name. All other attributes to do with the well are recorded in the well header.

Index term Format Description
** DTI Well registration
name
Char (16) The name assigned to the well borehole by the DTI.

At Services Level:

Index term Format Description
** Item group Char ( 4) LOG or REPT
** Item type Char (11)  Generic category for the item. (See list below)
    Basic set Char ( 3) YES or NO

  
3.0 GENERIC ITEM TYPES FOR REPORTS
3.1 Every report will be categorised into one of the group types below. The type list will appear as a look-up table where necessary on the Cataloguing database, on digital data submission forms and in the query look-up tables for searches. The field populated into the database will be the short name taken from the first column.

3.2 The cataloguing scheme subdivides the item groups into generic groups (shown here in BOLD). If a report does not fall into a specific item group then it will take on the Generic Group name.
EXAMPLE: a drilling costs summary report would not have an existing Item Group so it would be coded as falling under the Generic Group for drilling DRILL_GEN.

3.3 Where a group of reports covering two or more subject categories have been submitted together as one report the Generic Group CONC_GEN should be used to denote that the report is a concatenated collection of reports.

3.4 WELL_COMP category is used for the Well Completion Report as specified in PON 9.
This contains a complete operations, geology and results summary.
