<h1>
Create Well Paths
</h1>
<p><img src="/images/3d-main-window/WellPathCreation.png" alt=""></p>
<p>ResInsight lets the user create new/custom well paths by clicking in the 3D view. A self created well path will behave the same way as an ordinary imported well path.</p>
<p><a href="/wells-and-completions/createmultilateralwellpaths/">Building a multilateral well path</a></p>
<h3 id="building-a-well-path">Building a well path</h3>
<ol>
<li>Right click <strong>Wells</strong> in the project tree</li>
<li>Select <strong>Create Well Path</strong> in the right-click menu. A new well node and a well targets node are created</li>
<li>Click in the 3D view on locations where the well path should pass (well path targets)</li>
<li>When finished placing targets, click on &ldquo;Stop Picking Targets&rdquo; in the property editor</li>
</ol>
<p><img src="/images/3d-main-window/WellTargetsTree.png" alt=""></p>
<p><img src="/images/3d-main-window/WellTargetsPropertyEditor.png" alt=""></p>
<p>Well targets property editor fields:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>UTM Reference Point</strong> - Reference point. Defaults to the first target point clicked.</li>
<li><strong>Link Reference Point</strong> - All wells with this option checked will be moved as a group.</li>
<li><strong>Air Gap</strong> - Specify Air Gap, i.e. distance from Rotary Kelling Bushing to sea surface. Applies to well path export only.</li>
<li><strong>MD at First Target</strong> - Defines the measured depth at the first defined well target.</li>
<li><strong>Generate Target at Sea Level</strong> - Automatically create a target at sea level based on a reasonable well path from reservoir to sea level</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Well Targets Appearance</strong></p>
<p>Controls the visibility and appearance of spheres at well target locations in addition to 3D interaction handles. The 3D interaction handles will be visible only when the Well Target object is selected, but the spheres will be always be visible if enabled.</p>
<p><strong>Well Targets</strong></p>
<p>List of all defined well targets. The editor will have a contrast background color when in picking state.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Point</strong> - Target position relative to reference point.</li>
<li><strong>DL in</strong> - Dog leg inwards [degrees/30m].</li>
<li><strong>DL out</strong> - Dog leg outwards [degrees/30m].</li>
<li><strong>Dir</strong> - Check box for overriding well path auto calculated directions.</li>
<li><strong>Azi (deg)</strong> - Azimuth. Y axis is 0 degrees.</li>
<li><strong>Inc (deg)</strong> - Inclination. Z axis is 0 degrees.</li>
</ul>
<p>A well path defined by well targets may be edited by either editing coordinates in the property editor or clicking and dragging targets in the 3D view.</p>
<p><img src="/images/3d-main-window/WellTargets.png" alt=""></p>
<p>Clicking and dragging the blue part of a target, it can be moved along the Z axis only. Clicking and dragging the magenta part of a target, it can be moved freely around.</p>
<h3 id="well-target-interaction-operations">Well Target Interaction Operations</h3>
<p>When the well target handles are active in the 3D view, the following operations are possible when pressing left mouse button on well target handles:</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>User Interaction</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Mouse Move</td>
<td>Modification of a single target</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Mouse Move + CTRL</td>
<td>Modification of all well target on selected well (laterals excluded)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Mouse Move + CTRL + SHIFT</td>
<td>Modification of all well targets (laterals included)</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<h3 id="starting-well-path-at-a-fixed-position">Starting well path at a fixed position</h3>
<p>The toggle <strong>Generate Target at Sea Level</strong> is on by default. If the well path is supposed to start at a predefined location at the sea level, the following procedure can be used:</p>
<ol>
<li>Right click <strong>Wells</strong> in the project tree</li>
<li>Select <strong>Create Well Path</strong> in the right-click menu. A new well node and a well targets node are created.</li>
<li>Clear <strong>Generate Target at Sea Level</strong></li>
<li>Right-click in the pink well target area, and select <strong>Insert new Target above</strong></li>
<li>In the <strong>UTM Reference Point</strong> field, enter the predefined UTM coordinate (usually, the depth is set to 0.0 for sea level)</li>
<li>Continue clicking on geometry in the 3D view to add more well targets and make sure the first well target is defined by [0.00 0.00 0.00] to make sure the first target is located at the predefined UTM reference position</li>
</ol>
<h3 id="well-plan">Well Plan</h3>
<p>A well plan can be displayed by selecting <strong>Show Well Plan</strong> from the right-click menu of a generated well path.</p>
