OpenWorks 2003 to R5000 Migration Workflow
Many users of Petrel use the Landmark OpenWorks product to store their
multi-user project data. Many of these users are migrating from the 2003.12
version to the R5000 version of OpenWorks. As these projects are upgraded
the links stored in the OpenSpirit datakeys
in Petrel projects created via OpenSpirit become invalid. This is caused
by:
The OpenSpirit Data Manager capabilities described in this section may
be combined in a multi-step workflow to re-link a Petrel project that
was originally linked to an OpenWorks 2003 project to a migrated R5000
project. To do this, follow these steps:
- If the Petrel project was created via the Schlumberger OpenSpirit
plug-in then the Petrel objects will not have as many attributes as
if the objects had been imported via the OpenSpirit Adapter.
In order to add these additional attributes, which aid in matching,
you can refresh all the objects.
Note that this step must be done while the OW2003 project is still
available. This step is not required if the Petrel project was
created using the OpenSpirit Adapter.
- During the migration from OW2003 to R5000 keep track of which OW2003
and SeisWorks projects migrate to which R5000 projects.
- After the new R5000 projects are created you can open up each Petrel
project and use the OpenSpirit Data Manager to view which OW 2003
projects were used in the project (use the Summary
- Data Sources tab but don't attempt to validate the data sources).
Then, using the information gathered in step 2, determine which
R5000 project(s) you will want to link the Petrel project to.
- Set the default export project
to the R5000 project determined in step 3 and then link
the desired data types. Repeat this step for every project identified
in step 3.
- After successfully linking the Petrel project to the new R5000
project(s) some Petrel objects may still have invalid keys (e.g. perhaps
the linked OW2003 data item was not migrated). So to avoid future
confusion, you may wish to clear
all invalid keys (the OW 2003 datakey will have no use in the
future without the original OW2003 project being available).
