Frequently Asked Questions

If the following section doesn't answer your question, please contact our support team

 

Is Completions Manager compliant with Microsoft Vista?
Yes, Completions Manager Version 8 running with AutoCAD 2009 or AutoCAD 2010 is compliant with Microsoft Vista and Windows 7.
Is Completions Manager compliant with Citrix?
Yes, Completions Manager Version 8 running with AutoCAD Map 3D is compliant with Citrix.
Can Completion Manager diagrams store data for re-entry wells with the original section of the wellbore and the new completion?
Yes, parts of an existing well diagram can be retained and new components added to create a new diagram.
Can Completion Manager diagrams store data on dual completions with two or more sets of tubing / completion strings?
Yes, Completions Manager™ can handle dual completions and also concentric strings (e.g. velocity string completions).
Can Completions Manager™ draw a diagram from a database, without user intervention?
No, because we don't believe the end result would be acceptable. To depict a well as an easily recognizable schematic, distortion of scale is needed. In addition, the database-driven approach would not work for a significant proportion of the more complex well types.
Can deviation surveys be imported into Completions Manager™ and if so what mechanism is used?
Yes, but this would require an optional add-on (Import from External Database).
Can Completions Manager™ diagram and store data on submersible pumps?
Yes, there are several symbols for different ESP configurations. One of our clients is a major supplier of ESP equipment.
How do we know if Completions Manager™ has all the symbols / icons required for our completions?
We will review a client's wells prior to delivery and ensure that the necessary symbols are present. In addition, the annual support & maintenance option includes time set aside for creation of new symbols required by the client.
Are wellhead and xmas tree components handled in the same way as downhole components in Completions Manager™?
No, Xmas Trees and Wellheads are pre-drawn by Petrofocus according to client requirements, since some clients require a high level of detail, whilst others want a more simple diagrammatic representation.
What other software products can Completion Manager interface and exchange data with? We use Landmark's DIMS product and would like to have Completions Manager™ exchange data with it.
Diagrams can be copied and pasted into other Windows programs such as Word and PowerPoint. Drawings can also be printed to Adobe PDF format and Autodesk's DWF format. Completions Manager™ has an add-on option that can import data from Excel spreadsheets (e.g. tubing tallies). Completions Manager™ can also import data from external databases such as DIMS using the optional “Import from External Database?add-on.
Can we create symbols ourselves?
You can draw temporary symbols but these would not have the characteristics of normal symbols (e.g. multiple display options, automatic adjustment when erasing or inserting). Petrofocus therefore recommend that symbol requirements are passed to us and we would include them in the next update.
Can we store data for our commonly used equipment and retrieve it when creating a new diagram?
Yes, you can save details such as Size, ID, OD, Drift etc. for each component type (safety valve, packer etc) and then retrieve these values when you next insert that component.
