Field Planning
The primary challenges for unconventional field planning are, firstly,
to find the optimum locations for cluster pads and, secondly, to
design and generate hundreds of wells that match specific
constraints. RMSFieldPlanning is a comprehensive suite of powerful
yet easy to use tools which empower you to facilitate the planning
process of an entire field with both precision and flexibility.
IN SUMMARY
• Seamless integration in RMS reduces planning iterations
• Rapid target design maximises the efficiency of handling
multiple targets.
• Automated well path generation reduces time spent
designing and generating wells.
• Optimisation of pad and target locations maximises your
potential in field planning.
• Interactive manipulation of constraints affords an
unsurpassed level of control over your field planning.
• Interactively edit and manipulate targets and clusters
• Create multiple copies of target input with Target
Generator
Field Planning Challanges
RMS is an advanced modelling tool that incorporates the entire
reservoir characterisation workflow. Execute the planning of targets
and well trajectories for the development of a field within a wholly 3D
environment, integrating seismic, structural modelling, property
modelling and simulation.
The RMSFieldPlanning module measurably reduces the planning
iterations between geoscientists and drilling engineers. The design
of multiple targets and the automatic generation of well paths with
user defined constraints significantly shortens the time of the field
planning of unconventional assets such as SAGD (Steam Assisted
Gravity Drainage) and Shale gas.
Flexibility
The visualisation, and interactive manipulation of well pads and
target locations enables you to optimise the pad positions when
planning a development field to follow surface constraints.
Additionally, cultural data can be integrated to enhance this process
even further.
Field Planning
Importing and Exporting Targets
Edit and Manipulate Targets and Platforms
The handling of multiple targets in RMS is simpler than ever before.
RMSfieldplanning provides the flexibility to both import and export
targets in Comma Separated Values (CSV) format files to transfer
target data rapidly and simply between projects.
RMSFieldPlanning provides three new data objects
in RMS:
Target Generator
Create multiple copies of a target input with horizontal or vertical
distance, or both, with RMSfieldplanning’s Target Generator. This
easy to use and yet fully featured tool places the power at your
fingertips to create targets with maximum efficiency and minimum
effort.
Cluster Pad (a), Target Box (b), Cluster Box (c).
Each of these can be visualised and interactively edited
in both 2D and 3D views in the RMS Viewer:
a. Cluster Pad - a 3D object around the slots that enables the
interactive editing of the pad location.
b. Target Box - a box that surrounds all the targets assigned to a
cluster.
c. Cluster Box - a box which surrounds the slots and targets
assigned to a cluster.

Automatic Generation of Planned Trajectories
Boost your productivity with the new Well Assignment Table which
can drastically reduce the time required to design and generate wells
by offering the ability to assign wells, clusters and targets together.
In addition, you can plan a large number of wells from a set of
clusters.
Roxar 2014
Generate quickly and simply planned trajectories in RMS which
follow predefined drilling constraints such as Maximum DLS, Kick-off
Point, Tangent Sections and Inclinations.
