Lesson 1
OFM Database
OFM can be viewed as having two integrated layers - database
and application. Basically, the database layer handles the data
part; and the application controls the user interface, as well as the
processing data/information per request. OFM database is
Microsoft Access-based. All data/information are stored in tables
(and sometimes views). Therefore, OFM database has all the
characteristics of a relational database, including constraints,
keys, and indices. There are three main classes (types) of tables
in an OFM database:
•
Data Table
•
System and Configuration Table
•
OFM -Managed Table
There are two types of data tables in an OFM project:
•
Standard Data Tables that have no prefix
•
OFM Defined Data Tables that have OFM_Data_ as a prefix
Previous versions of OFM also had OFM Defined System Data
tables that had _OFM_SYS_ as a prefix. In OFM 2007 all the
information that was stored in the OFM Defined System Data
tables is now stored in the *.OFM workspace file.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
7
Schlumberger
OFM Basics
NOTE: There are only two
types of tables in OFM 2007,
OFM-defined database
tables having the prefix
OFM_DATA_ and standard
database data tables.
Previous versions of OFM
had tables containing the
prefix _OFM_SYS_. All the
information that was stored
in those tables is now stored
in the *.OFM workspace file.
OFM Data Tables
As the name suggests, these tables contain data. Most of the
tables must have at least one key (primary key) and may contain
constraint and indexing information. Each table has two or more
fields, which have designated data types (i.e., date/time, number,
or text) and size (i.e., long integer, double precision for number
field, or 20 space wide for text field). By assigning the correct data
types and sizes, you can assure no unexpected loss of data (in
case of truncating, rounding-off) at load time. OFM data tables are
not named with either the _OFM_SYS or the OFM_DATA_
prefixes. For example, a table to store time-independent data may
resemble the image pictured below.
Standard Data Tables
NOTE: Standard Data
Tables are tables that do not
have the OFM_DATA_
prefix.
In the above example, the UNIQUEID field is a text field that is 20
characters wide. In addition, it is designated as the primary key
field in this HEADERID table (indicated by the key icon in the left).
Also, as it is the primary key of the table (and later you will know
that it is the master key of the OFM project) it carries additional
properties (seen in the lower section, General tab). Please
reference Relational Database concepts for further information.

OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
A standard data table is any table that does not have the
OFM_DATA_ prefix. The table must have a primary key and may
contain constraint and indexing information. Each field in the table
will have designated data types, i.e., date/time, number, or text
and size, i.e., long integer, double precision for number field, or 20
spaces wide for text field. Assigning the correct data types and
sizes will insure no unexpected loss of data from truncation or
rounding at load time. For example, a table to store timeindependent data is shown in the following image.
Schlumberger
OFM Basics
In the image below, the HEADERID table is the master table for
the OFM project, as indicated by the key icon to the left of the
table name.
There are many fields in this table that are number (numeric)
fields. For example, if you select the XCOOR field from the list,
you would see the following:
Schlumberger Public
The UNIQUEID field is a field within the HEADERID table of type
text that has a size of 20 and is designated as the primary key field
in the HEADERID table, as indicated by the key icon to the left of
the field name in the OFM Representation box and in the Attr
column in the Available Fields box.
NOTE: Not all field
properties are displayed by
OFM in the Available Fields
section. To view any
additional field properties
open the table in Access in
Design view and select the
field. The additional
properties will be defined on
the General tab.
The XCOOR field is a number field, with double precision and no
decimal place assigned in display. Also, it is not indexed and can
accept a null value.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
9
OFM Basics
Schlumberger
In the following image other field types can be seen in the
HEADERID table. For example, the YCOOR field is of type
Double, UPPERPERF is of field type Single, and
COMPLETIONDATE is of field type Date/Time.
By design, OFM requires the designation of a MASTER table,
which normally stores static well information such as Well Alias,
Well Coordinates, etc… The primary key of this master table is the
main (MASTER) key of the whole OFM project. HEADERID table
in the above example is a master table.
To create a project OFM requires that a table be designated as
the master table and that a field in the master table be designated
as the primary key for the project. In the previous images the
HEADERID table is the master table and the UNIQUEID field is
the primary key. The master table contains static data about the
primary key. The primary key is usually the completion name and
the table would contain static data like the completions XY
coordinate, alias, completion date, total depth, etc.
Many other data tables may contain more than one keyed field.
For example, a date-dependent table must have at least two keys:
one is the entity key (similar to the UNIQUEID key); the other is
the date key. Now take a look at a monthly frequency table.
10
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
When the field is a number, assigning the appropriate field type
will save space in the database.
Schlumberger
OFM Basics
An OFM project can consist of many table types. Some table
types contain more than one keyed field. For example, a monthly
or daily table, which is date dependent, would have two keys: the
primary key and a date/time key. In the following image a monthly
table is highlighted.
Schlumberger Public
As seen above, this MONTHLYPROD table has two keys. The
UNIQUEID key joins this MONTHLYPROD table to the
HEADERID table, in a relational manner. However, the primary
entity key of one table does not have to be identical to the primary
entity key (master key) of the OFM project. As long as a
relationship (join) can be established between the two tables
(normally via an intermediate field – could be a foreign key), there
is no violation in the design of the OFM database. For example, if
you have a table like this:
This can be joined to the HEADERID table as long as there exists
a way to relate Reservoir (in this RES_PROD table) to the
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
11
Schlumberger
OFM Basics
UNIQUEID field in the HEADERID table. In this illustrative
database, there is a table that contains such valuable information.
The relationship between them could be established as shown
below.
NOTE: You do not have to
physically make the joins
between the tables.
Exercise 1
NOTE: There is a special
type of data table named
*_Adjustments in the Access
database. These tables
store prior cumulative
production for the respective
date-dependent tables. For
example, open the
Demo2007.mdb database

Demo2007.mdb database.
•
How many keys are there in the CHOKE table?
•
Which key is the primary key?
The instructor will explain why the CHOKE table is a special type
of table in OFM.
OFM Defined Data Tables
The other type of table in OFM is the OFM-defined data table. It
stores data that is either loaded, input or a result of OFM analyses.
One type of OFM-defined data table has the prefix
OFM_DATA_DCA_ and decline curve analysis data generated in
the OFM decline curve analysis module. These tables are
automatically created when the project is created and will not
contain any data unless a forecast has been saved or merged
from another workspace. The names of these tables, as defined
by OFM, cannot be changed.
Some additional OFM defined data tables are
OFM_DATA_Deviation, OFM_DATA_Fault,
OFM_DATA_FILTER, OFM_DATA_Log, OFM_DATA_Marker,
etc. It is not recommended that the names of these tables be
changed as it could prevent OFM from being able to access the

data. Even though OFM-defined data tables are basically data
tables, the data that are stored in them can be sensitive to
changes; therefore, it is not recommended that the data be
manipulated manually.
Exercise 2
Studying OFM Defined Data
Tables
Using Microsoft Access, open the Demo2007.mdb database and
study the OFM-defined data tables.

The Database\Schema Tables… option is now used to only edit
standard data tables. The Database\OFM Defined Tables…
option has been added to manage all of the OFM-defined data
tables. OFM-defined data tables are tables with the OFM_DATA_
prefix. They consist of Decline Analysis, Deviation, Fault, Log,
Marker, Pattern, PIPESIM, PVT, and Wellbore Diagram tables.
OFM-defined data tables now can be switched between Shared
Workspace and My Workspace. If the OFM-defined data table is
pointing to Shared Workspace then it is read-only. The OFMdefined data table has been converted to an entity based sporadic
table.
NOTE: The Log table (i.e.,
OFM_DATA_LOG) stores
binary data object (i.e.,
BLOB). Therefore, the data
(trace values) cannot be
edited in this table.
Schlumberger
OFM Basics
Lesson 2
OFM Workspace
The following eight system tables were removed from the Access
database:
NOTE: There are three
types of OFM-defined tables
which have the prefixes
_OFM_SYS_, OFM_DATA_
and OFM_DATA_DCA_.
•
_OFM_SYS_Configuration
•
_OFM_SYS_DateRange
•
_OFM_SYS_FieldProp
•
_OFM_SYS_Multipliers
•
_OFM_SYS_Parser
•
_OFM_SYS_TableInfo
•
_OFM_SYS_TableMap
•
_OFM_SYS_Units.
NOTE: If the project was a
OFM2007 project and had
an existing *.OFM
workspace the default
setting in OFM 2007 is to
backup the *.OFM
workspace file and is
recommended. If the project
was a *.mdb project created
with OFM 2004 or earlier
then the backup message
will not display and all the
information in the eight
system tables will be written
to the OFM 2007 *.OFM
workspace file.
14
The second step was to remove the remaining seven tables
having the prefix _OFM_SYS_, i.e., System tables, from the
Access database. This step occurred in OFM 2007. When any
project created in a previous version of OFM is opened with OFM
2007, the information that originally resided in the eight system
tables is written to the OFM 2007 *.OFM workspace file. If the
project was created in OFM 2004 or earlier, then the information is
taken from all eight system tables. If a project was created with
OFM 2005 or upgraded to OFM 2005, then the information is
taken from the OFM 2005 *.OFM workspace and all the system
tables except the _OFM_SYS_Configuration table, which would
only exist if the project had be upgraded to OFM 2005 and would
not exist if the project was created with OFM 2005. The system
files in any project created in a previous version of OFM become
obsolete when upgraded to OFM 2007.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
The first step taken was to extract all the information stored in the
_OFM_SYS_Configuration table and put it in a HTML file with
the suffix *.OFM. When any version of OFM 2007 is used to open
a *.mdb project created with OFM 2004 or earlier, a XML file with
the suffix *.OFM is created and the information from all eight
tables with the prefix _OFM_SYS_ is written to this file not just the
_OFM_SYS_Configuration table. This *.OFM file is referred to as
the OFM workspace file. The _OFM_SYS_Configuration table is
not deleted from the Access database and can be used to restore
the *.OFM workspace file to the configuration it had when the
project was converted if the *.OFM workspace file should ever
become corrupt, however, any changes to the project
configuration that occur after the project is converted are stored
only to the *.OFM workspace file; the _OFM_SYS_Configuration
table becomes obsolete.

About Shared Workspace / My Workspace
In OilField Manager 2007 (OFM 2007) the Private Database
functionality has been replaced with the functionality to create
workspaces. There are two types of workspaces – Shared
Workspace and My Workspace.
When a workspace is a standalone workspace or a workspace
linked to a data source the items in the workspace will be
referenced using the word My. The main folder in the Analysis
pane will be My Analysis, the main folder in the Calculated
Variables window will be My Calculated Variables, the main folder
in the Categories window will be My Categories, the main folder
in the Units window will be My Units, etc. When the word My is
used, that means that the items can be edited.
When a workspace is linked to another workspace, the items in
the workspace will be categorized as either My or Shared. Any
items that are categorized under the word Shared will not be
editable from within that linked workspace.
Creating a Shared Workspace
In your training data set is an Access database named Company
Data Source.mdb. The following workflow will create a Shared
Workspace that is linked to the Company Data Source.mdb file.
The Shared Workspace will then be linked to, illustrating how a
user would access the Shared Workspace using the Shared
Workspace / My Workspace concept. In this example the external
data source is an Access database but it could be any external
data source, Oracle, SQL, Excel, etc.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
A Shared Workspace can be a standalone workspace or a linked
workspace. A typical Shared Workspace can be a workspace
linked to a company database or a standalone project created
using ASCII files. The primary benefit of a Shared Workspace is
the ability to share a project with multiple users while restricting
those users from modifying shared files. The functionality to create
a shared workspace is the same as with OFM 2005 or OFM 2004,
using linked tables or ASCII files. The only difference is once the
workspace is created the items in the Shared Workspace will be
referenced using the word My, as in My Analysis, My Calculated
Variables, My Categories, etc. If you link to the Shared
Workspace using the Link to a Shared Workspace File:
functionality, you will see the same items referenced using the
word Shared; the items in the users linked workspace just created
will be referenced using the word My. You will be able to add, edit
or delete any of the items referenced as My, but will not be able to
add, edit or delete any of the items referenced as Shared.
NOTE: In OFM 2007.1 the
word Team was used. It was
replaced in OFM 2007.2 with
the word Shared.
NOTE: The procedure
which follows would be
performed by a nominated
Owner of the Shared
Workspace, typically a Team
Leader or some other
responsible person in the
organization.

Linking an Existing OFM Project Workspace to
a Shared Workspace
There will be times when you may wish to migrate a pre-existing
OFM 2005 project, complete with your pre-existing (standalone)
associated My Workspace, to OFM 2007. In the previous
exercises you were creating new Workspaces. Here, however,
you will retain an existing Workspace, but make use of the new
Shared Workspace feature in OFM 2007. To do this, use the
Database > Shared Workspace facility.
To link an existing workspace to a Shared Workspace:
1. Open the Demo2007 project as a standalone user: Select File
> Open Workspace. Navigate to the My Workspace file you
created in the previous exercise.
2. The project opens, with the Analysis pane indicating that only
one Workspace, My Workspace, exists. This is the situation
that would have existed when you were an OFM 2005 user.
22
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
It is important to review and note that previously a workspace was
created that was to be shared to other users. Upon opening that
workspace directly you will see the word My on all the items
because it is a standalone project that was created with ASCII files
or is linked to an external data source. When you create a My
Workspace that is linked to that Shared Workspace will see
Shared on all the items in the workspace previously created and
My on all the items created in the My Workspace just created.
The items are labeled as My or Shared depending on from which
workspace they are being viewed.

process. Any Table,
Calculated Variable,
Category, Unit or Multiplier in
YOUR My Workspace that
has the same name as one
in the Shared Workspace will
be considered to be a
duplicate and will be
removed from My
Workspace. You should
consider this before
performing the link process.
If you suspect that any such
element (e.g., a personal
calculated variable) may
suffer from this duplication
removal, rename it before
you start the link process to
ensure that your calculated
variable survives.
9. Once you are satisfied, click OK.
Your OFM session should now display an Analysis pane with
two Workspaces: your pre-existing Workspace (My

Module 2
Project Creation
In this module, we will cover the most common ways to create and
get data into an OFM project. The structure of the project should
be carefully designed before actually launching the first creation
step.
Data cannot be lost or changed by specifying incorrect tables. If a
project table does not match the data source the data will simply
not load or will not be viewable but nothing will happen to the data.
Prerequisites
Before getting to the actual data populating exercises, it would be
useful to understand the OFM data table types and specifications.
Learning Objectives
In this module you will learn to:
Analyze table types
•
Populate project with ASCII data files (OFM formats)
•
Populate project with ASCII data files (PI/Dwights formats)
•
Link the project with data from external ODBC sources.

OFM Table Types
OFM data are stored in Microsoft Access tables, which follow
relational database design concepts. In addition, OFM tables have
their own constraints and properties. Understanding the table
structures in order to correctly construct the project will save you
time and also guarantee the normal behavior and data integrity of
your created project.

Project Creation
An OFM project can be defined/created using a variety of
methods:
•
Creating it directly from an Access database
•
Using a template
•
Designing it interactively using linked tables
•
Creating it from a data source like ASCII Flat Files, OFM3
Project Database or PI/Dwights
•
Linking to a shared workspace file.
In the next section you will define/create a project using ASCII Flat
Files, PI/Dwights DMP2 Production files, an Access database, and
Linked Tables.

Project Creation
Lesson 5
OFM Loadable ASCII Flat
File Formats
In this section, you will learn the formats of OFM loadable ASCII
Flat Files for various table types. You will then create a new OFM
project from the text files (provided in the installed program
directory).
You MUST load the definition file and the (master) key data file (in
that order) first. Most of the ASCII data files do not have to be
loaded into your OFM project in order. Load the table definition file
(for one or many tables) before loading the data files for those
tables. If you choose to create the tables interactively (without
using the definition files), they MUST exist before the data files
can be loaded.
This is also true if you want to load data into a group table
(different entity key than the key in the master table), as you must
define that group entity before OFM can load the data. For
example, if you want to load production data at the reservoir level
into a table called RES_PROD, the reservoir entity has to be
associated (as a sort category, a foreign key, a wellbore, etc.)
before load time. The table definition for that table also has to be
created beforehand.
*.def – table definition file
Multiple data files can be
loaded into one table
(appending).
*.xy – master (key) data
One definition file can hold

TIP: Most of the time, each
data file contains information
from only one table.
OFM automatically recognizes the table types if the text load files
have some specific extensions. If the data files don’t have the
commonly used extensions that OFM expects, they will be treated
as typical data files, and will be parsed into the specified tables.
Here are some commonly used file extensions:
Schlumberger
Project Creation
We have constantly used the terms definition file and data file. Not
all the tables in OFM require table definitions before load time.
These are tables that do not require table definitions before load
time:
•
Deviation table
•
Fault table
•
Marker table Sort category (filter) table
•
Pattern table
•
Wellbore diagram table
•
Parser table*
*Parser table is not a typical table in many ways, even though
parser information does get stored in a table.
Viewing the (ASCII) Text Load Files
Schlumberger Public
OFM does expect the text files to follow certain file formats so that
it can read and write the data to the database correctly. The files
have to contain keywords to designate/separate all information
stored in the files. A comprehensive list of all keywords can be
searched from the on-line help file provided with the application.
In this procedure, you will study the characteristics of some
important table definition and data files in the Demo (usually
located in the \\…\Sample Databases\Demo Database\Text Load
Files\ directory, where \\…\ denotes your installed OFM program
directory).
1. Launch a text editor such as Notepad or WordPad. (If you
have already associated the application with the file extension,
you can open the file directly from Windows Explorer).
2. Select File > Open.
3. The Open Window displays, select All Files or All
Documents from the Files of Type drop-down list.
4. Locate the \Sample Databases\Demo Database\Text Load
Files\ from your program directory.
5. Select Demo Definitions File.def.

Schlumberger
Project Creation
6. Click Open. The definition file displays, as shown below
(partial file only):
Schlumberger Public
Notes:
40
•
The row beginning with the *Tablename keyword defines
the table name, table type and indicates that it will be the
master table. The file format is space delimited so
whatever text lies between the next two spaces,
consecutive spaces are treated as one, will be the name
of the table, followed by the table type and the master
table designation.
•
In this example HEADERID is the table name and it is a
static table and most importantly it is the master table. A
project can have as many static tables as desired, but
there can only be one master table.
•
In the fields/variables section, each field is assigned a data
type, text or numeric (with size). As many other PC
applications, OFM has several precision specific numeric
types such as INT2, FLOAT, DOUBLE, etc …
•
In the definition file, the field’s attributes can be assigned,
identified by the keywords such as *pn for Plot Name, *pa
for Plot Attribute, *u for Unit, and *mu for Multiplier. These
attribute keywords can be searched from the help file.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger
•
Project Settings keywords may appear in the definition file.
*DateLabel is one of them, denoting the displayed DATE
name for the project. For example, a Spanish speaking
user can select to use FECHA for date; the user has to
insert *DateLabel FECHA at the top of this definition file.
Another Project Settings keyword you may see quite often
is *Metric, which alerts OFM to treat the project as in
Metric unit system.
•
The static master table must be the very first table defined
in the primary definition file (there may be many multiple
definition files).
•
If the table name, variable name, or even the attribute
contains two or more words and has space(s) between
them (or non-ASCII characters), they should be enclosed
in quotes (for instance, MY WELL) for OFM to treat it
properly.
•
Comment lines have to be started with either comment
identifiers // or /*. These lines are just descriptive
information and will be ignored by OFM at load time. All
texts are case-insensitive.
Project Creation
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
Now take a look at the definition of the monthly production
table named MONTHLYPROD. Scroll down the file and locate
the line *TABLENAME MONTHLYPROD Monthly. Notice the
structure of the definition file.
41
Schlumberger
Project Creation
In this case, MONTHLYPROD is the name of a MONTHLY
table, which has fields like DAYS (an int4 type), OIL (a float
type), and more.
7. Continue to scroll up and down the definition file to study other
tables, their fields and attributes. Notice the CHOKE and the
RES_PROD tables.
The CHOKE table is a DUALKEY SPORADIC table.
Therefore, the *DUALKEY keyword is required after the
*Tablename line.
Likewise, RES_PROD is a GROUP level table. OFM needs to
know at which level its data are associated. Thus, the word
GROUP is required, followed by the group name. In this case,
it is RESERVOIR (a Sort Category).
TIPS – NUMERIC SIZE
Numeric Type Value Ranges:
INT1: -128 to 127
•
INT2: -32,768 to 32,767
•
INT4: -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647
•
UINT1: 0 to 255 (unsigned int1)
•
UINT2: 0 to 65,535 (unsigned int2)
•
UINT4: 0 to 4,294,967,295 (unsigned int4)
•
FLOAT: occupies 4 bytes, 7 decimal places, and values of
approximately -3.4E-38 to 3.4E38.
•
DOUBLE: occupies 8 bytes, 19 decimal places, and values of
approximately -1.7E308 to 1.7E308.
•
Knowing the appropriate range of your variable data and
assigning the proper size to the variable may help you save
memory and improve performance.
TIPS - Reserved Keywords
There are reserved keywords that may be used in the text load
files. They have special meanings to OFM and cannot be reused
as variable names. The following table is a list of the most
commonly used reserved keywords:
*DateLabel
*Day
*DD
*DDMMYY
*Define
*Depth
*End_Define
*EOF
*End_Format

2. Create a new workspace and load the files to the project.
Exercise 10 Using Batch Loading (optional)
WARNING: Before
proceeding check your OFM
installation directory for the
*.bdl and the *.bpf files. If you
do not have these files, ask
your instructor to get a
sample copy.
There are two types of batch data loading in OFM. One is used for
loading multiple files to create a project, the other loading multiple
files to create multiple projects. The former batch file should have
the *.bdl (e.g., Batch Data Loading) extension, and the latter
should have the *.bpf (e.g., Batch Project File). This exercise
demonstrates how to use the first feature.
1. Open the *.bdl (for example, Batch Data Load File.bdl) in a
text editor.
2. If needed, edit to verify the path/directory of the text files is
correct. In this case, it would be \\…\…\Text Load File\ and
then the full file.
3. Verify that the definition and key data files are the first two files
in the list.

6. Place the correct specified files into the Files to Load list (in
the specified order).
7. Click Load to load the files as you did in the previous exercise.
8. The project keyword line is followed by those lines (data files)
seen in a *.bdl file. A different project is identified by a new
*project line, then its own data files. To execute this batch
loading procedure, from the File menu with no workspace
opened, select Batch Load and the desired file to load.
9. Verify the path and file names are correct to guarantee correct
loading of data.
NOTE: The format of the
*.bpf is similar to the format
of the *.bdl file, except for
each project, there is a line
specifying the project name
and directory. For example,
a project named DemoData
in the D:\Temp directory is
specified as: *Project
“D:\Temp\DemoData.mdb

Exercise 18 Linking to an Access Database
Considering that most Access databases are not created and
maintained in an OFM-compliant manner combined with the
common practice of keeping the original Access databases
separate from the OFM project databases, OFM provides a
dynamic method of linking the OFM database to the Access data
source called the Linked Tables method. In this Linked Tables
method, there are two separate Access databases – one
containing the original data, i.e., the source, and the other
containing the linked tables, the OFM Defined tables and any
standard tables.
Schlumberger Public
The Linked Tables method can be used to connect to any ODBC(Open Database Connectivity) compliant data sources such as
SQL Server, Oracle, or Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, etc…
Its advantage is that the users always have a “clean” copy of the
data. It reduces the risk of corrupting the original database. The
trivial disadvantage of this method is the maintenance of two
separate databases. In addition, each time the user requests data
from the OFM project, the program has to resolve the links and
goes to the source database to get data. This may add more time
for data processing (especially when the source database is not
located in the local hard drive and/or the source database is
Oracle/SQL Server based), but at the same time guarantee the
user always gets the most up-to-date version of the data.
OFM provides built-in feature to connect to Microsoft Access. In
this session, you will learn to create an OFM workspace linking to
data from an external Access database. We are going to use the
copy of the file Demo Access database that was in the previous
exercise.

Lesson 6
Schlumberger Public
Project Creation – Linking
to an Excel Spreadsheet
Microsoft Excel has been used widely in the Oil and Gas industry
to temporarily store data (before loading to long-term data
management applications and/or analytical applications), as it is
very easy to use. Excel is free formatted, which is error-prone for a
relational database based application like OFM.
OFM supports linking to Excel to get the data, via the Linked
Tables method. However, to ensure the link between OFM and
Excel works correctly, there are a few rules to consider:
•
The Worksheet Name will be used as the Table Name.
•
The first row on the worksheet is reserved for Field Names.
These names should contain no spaces.
•
Data must begin in Row2, and every column with numeric
data MUST contain a numeric value. Missing numeric data in
Row 2 should be represented by the default null OFM value
(-99999).
•
Each worksheet can only store data for one OFM table. No
merging of worksheets allowed.
•
Data on the worksheet must be continuous. No empty row(s)
should exist in between data sections.
•
No extra formats on the data columns (i.e., comments,
merged cells, etc…).
•
Data in the same column must be of identical data type (i.e.,
number, text, date/time) and should be of the same format.
•
No embedded graphs allowed on the linked worksheet.
In other words, KEEP IT SIMPLE!

TIP: Right mouse click on
the table (on the left pane)
and select Rename from the
menu, the program gives
you access to changing table
names.
You can rename a table in OFM, once the table has been
mapped. Many external tables have long names, which you may
consider changing. The external table names are still unaltered;
only the OFM table names change.
The MASTER table can only be renamed when it has just been
mapped to the project. After that, it cannot be changed. The other
table names can be changed at any time unless the tables (and
their children fields) are referenced by other tables/fields.
It has been left as an exercise to associate all other Excel tables to
the project now that they have already been made available for
use.
Exercise 20 Associating Additional Tables to
the OFM Project
TIP: There is one static
table, one monthly table, one
daily table, one sporadic
table, one dual-key sporadic
table, and one monthly
foreign key.

Exercise 21 Advanced Topic: Linking to an
ODBC Data Source (Optional)
This lesson is designed to illustrate the Linked Tables method
using ODBC driver setup. Usually, your ODBC data sources are
not local. Connecting to such data sources requires a network
connection and a driver – the DSN (Data Source Name). For
training purposes, you are going to use a Microsoft SQL Server
database as the ODBC data source. This SQL Server database is
the upsized version of the Demo database (from Access).
The simplified Demo Access database is used in this session. For
further information about how to upsize your Access database to
SQL Server, please consult with your instructor.
1. Launch OFM.
NOTE: You can create the
DSN prior to starting OFM,

Filtering
Filtering
Filtering is a technique used to narrow down the list of entities to a
more manageable and workable selection. In reality, most users
are only interested in a subset of their working projects. The
concept of filtering in OFM has proven to be very useful for all
users as good filter criteria can really optimize the time to perform
analysis, guarantee correct results, and maximize productivity.
The OFM Filter pane is pictured below.
NOTE: One of the most
frequently used Filter
operations is Clear. To
guarantee that your filter
criteria are applied to the
entire set of wells (entities),
clear any previously applied
filters (unless you want to
perform nested filters).
Schlumberger Public

Lesson 10 Filter by Completion
The Filter by Completion option is used to create a subset of
data by selecting one or more records from the filter option
columns. Filter by Completions dialog box displays by default
two columns in one screen, the first one is fixed and is the
Completions column the second one is not fixed and user can
select one of these categories: Alias, Fieldname, Lease, Logdata,
Reservoir, Sandname, Uniqueid, or Welltype.
Exercise 34 Filtering by Completion
To filter the data by Completion:
1. Open the Demo2007 project.
2. From the Filter pane click
, Filter By Completion. The
Filter By Completion window displays.
TIP: Clear removes any
previous selections. Select
All highlights all completions.

In previous OFM releases, only the full Completion name
could be displayed in the list for user defined selections. By
default OFM now displays both the full completion and alias
name in one screen. Additionally, you may change the view
from Alias to another category for display in the second
column by selection the Second Column Info drop-down list.
The CTRL or Shift keys help the user to select multiple wells
or entities of interest. Clicking the column headers

Lesson 11 Filter by Table Data
To select well (entities) that have data in a certain table, use the
Filter by Table Data option. For example, you may have a well
type field built to your project, which consists of oil, gas, and water
wells. You want to select the wells that have historical oil
production. Selecting the oil wells from a category may not satisfy
the criteria, as some wells that are tagged as oil wells may not

4. Clear the filter.
5. Select wells that have test data by selecting the TEST table. A
list of 21 wells that meet this filter criterion is returned.
6. Select MONTHLYPROD and TEST tables from the list. The
filter is applied and only the completions that have records in
both the MONTHLYPROD and TEST tables are displayed on
the basemap, 20 wells meet the criteria.
Schlumberger Public
Question
What do you think the results mean? Why 20 and not 21? Can
you single out the difference (well name)?
Lesson 12 Filter by Category
The prerequisite for this operation is all categories used must be

Lesson 14 Filter by Query
Schlumberger Public
You have done several filter techniques that deal with entities (i.e.,
well name) and data at static level (i.e., sort category value).
However, the most important data is production data, which
changes over time. To filter to that dynamic level of data, use the
Filter by Query option.
For example, select the wells that have produced more than 500
bbls per month at least once in their production history.

Schlumberger Public
20. Now rerun the query.
It will return the same result. However, by adding parentheses,
the query statement is more readable and manageable. The
order of precedence is very important in any type of query
language. Parentheses verify that the query is evaluated in
the order that the user specifies and helps avoid unnecessary
errors. It is recommended that you get into the habit of adding
parentheses.
21. Use Filter by Query to find the wells that produce at least
5000 bbl of oil or 2000000 scf of gas for at least 3 consecutive
times since 1990. Your query should return 19 wells.
22. Use Filter by Query to find the wells that produce at least 50
bbl of oil for at least 3 consecutive times since 1998. Save the
query as Prod_Wells98. Your query should return 18 wells.

Lesson 17 Project Filter
OFM has “smart-loading” algorithms to speed up project opening.
The time it takes to open a project depends on how big your
project is. It will take longer to open a 100,000-well project than a
100-well project. Still there are times that you would like for it to
open faster. The problem may be even worse if you are working
on a network project, and the network is somewhat slow.
OFM provides the option of pre-filtering the wells. Applying this
type of filtering (called Project Filter) to your project will cause it to
read only the applicable list of wells, saving load time from reading
the excluded wells.
We are going to use the Demo2007 project database to
demonstrate this functionality.

Project Variables
Project Variables
There are many different ways to classify OFM variables (also
called project variables), depending on how you would want to use
them. Based on the table types that the variables belong to (or
created from), you would have monthly, daily, sporadic variables,
etc… Based on data type, you would have date, numeric or
alphanumeric (text) variables. However, the most recognizable
classification, the OFM primary classification, is based on
database (storage/processing) properties.
Learning Objectives
This module covers how to create calculated variables and
calculated fields. You will have a chance to apply them in the next
section, Reporting. At the completion of this module you will be
able to:

Lesson 18 Types of Variables
There are three types of variables:
•
Input Variable
•
Calculated Variable
•
Calculated Field
Input Variable is the simplest form of variable. Input variables are
fields that belong to physical tables with physically loaded data. In
other words, if you open the table in Access or in OFM you would
see editable data. Input variables do not change value, i.e., every
time a request is made to an input variable (on a specific entity),
you would get the same copy of the data. In its Access database
(project), OFM stores both the design and the data of the input
variable.
Calculated Variables are derived variables or dependent
variables. OFM only saves the definition of a calculated variable,
not its physical data. Therefore the value of a calculated variable
may change from time to time. For example, each time a retrieval
request for a calculated variable is made you may get a different
copy of the data. The advantage of this variable type is that you
always get the most up-to-date copy of the data, and you do not
have to worry about project storage capacity.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
177
Schlumberger
Project Variables
Calculated Field (formerly known as Imputed Variable) is a
unique variable type in OFM. There are scenarios when neither
input nor calculated variable would be sufficient to address.
Fortunately, with the existence of Calculated Fields, those
problems are resolved; and the combination of these three types
of variables has been proven to be a complete solution for any
practical purpose.
The exercise arises with the grouping option. One perfect example
to demonstrate the concept of calculated field is the Gas-Oil Ratio,
defined as Gas/Oil. On an individual level (single well), it does not
make any difference. Yet on grouped level, there is a big
difference between ratio of the sums and sum of the ratios. As you
group the wells, OFM groups (sums) Gas from the source, groups
Oil from the source, and then takes the ratio. This is similar to
taking the average (per well). What if you want to group individual
(well) ratios?
Lesson 19 Calculated Variables
The first lesson involves divide by zero operation. In the Oil
Industry many variables are defined as ratios, and people are
dealing with zero denominators all the time. OFM imposes the
following rule on all the arithmetic operations, “Any arithmetic
operation with a null operand results in a null.” If you choose to
handle this problem from a calculated variable perspective, you
may get into trouble grouping (adding or averaging) or performing
consequent arithmetic operations on that calculated variable. OFM
offers a better way of doing it, with an intrinsic if statement to
replace the unusable results by nulls.
178
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
The last exercise is even more complicated. Primary OFM data
frequency is monthly, and users are used to creating (average)
daily rates by dividing monthly productions by the reported
numbers of producing days in the month. Grouping productions
and producing days at the source and then taking the ratio would
yield the (per well) average daily rate. Taking the ratios and then
grouping them would result in a field daily rate. Depending on
what you want to do with your data, you have to choose the
correct implementation of which variable type to use.

When reporting (or plotting), date variables are displayed in
number-like forms, i.e., 19900101.000. Even if you choose not to
display the decimals, the date displays still resemble numbers.
OFM provides a function called @FmtDate() so you can format
the date variables to the displayed forms that you want, i.e.,
1990/01/01 or Jan-01-1990. This function is used extensively on
the report and headers (since headers can only be text). The
output (return) of this function is a text string.

6. Click Close. The variable has been added to the project.
Exercise 51 (Dynamic) Computing Variables
Sometimes, scrolling through all the records of a well (an entity) to
find a specific record (i.e., maximum production) is time
consuming, especially when the maximum production value varies
from well to well and happens at different times. Even though
OFM provides the sorting algorithm to make the task easier,
having the dates shuffling up may not be a desirable by-product.
Fortunately, OFM has system functions that can resolve such a
concern. In this exercise, you are going to learn how to create a
calculated variable that returns the maximum oil production rate
for each well. You can even report the date where that peak
production was achieved.

Exercise 54 Creating Text Display Variables
There will be times that you may want to display values on the
report, plot and/or other modules as headers/footers. Numeric
variables can certainly be displayed in their original format, yet
they would not appear very neat. You may want to create
calculated variables to convert the outputs to texts and display
them better with attributes like names, units, multipliers, etc.

Module 7
Plotting
Plotting
Plotting is one of the most commonly used modules in OilField
Manager because it is easy to use, effective, and capable of
doing many procedures for analysis of production data.
Learning Objectives
OFM supports up to six graphs in one plot window. Each graph
can have up to 6 vertical (Y) axes, but it can only have one
horizontal (X) axis, also each y-axis can have multiple variables. In
this module, you will successfully learn how to perform the
following procedures:
Create a graph with one y-axis
•
Create a graph with two y-axes
•
Create a plot with multiple graphs
•
Use Plot Lock and Graph Blow Up options
•
Create stacked graph/plot on entities
•
Create stacked graph/plot on variables
•
Use Sum/Average/% Contribution plot types
•
Create plot overlay
•
Use Plot Annotations
•
Use plot-related tools/utilities
Schlumberger Public

Lesson 22 Basics of Plotting
The following rules must be adhered to regarding plotting;
•
All project variables (again, project variables consist of input
variables, calculated variables and calculated fields) may be
plotted.
•
Text variables cannot be plotted.
•
Plot and Graph often are used interchangeably in many cases
(especially when there is one graph in the window), but they
may not be identical. Graph is the visual representation of the
data. Plot is the housing of the graph(s). A plot (as in plot
window) can contain single or multiple graphs.

Lesson 24 Save a Plot
OFM enables you to save your plot settings and reuse them on a
different entity after it is loaded. OFM will not overwrite a plot
template. If a plot is open and another plot is opened, loaded or
created the original plot will not be effected. When a plot is closed
a template of that plot is automatically saved to the Analysis
pane. We recommend that you create a backup of that template
by selecting File > Save As… and creating a *.grf file for that plot.
A *.grf file can be reloaded to the project in case the template in
the Analysis pane gets corrupted or can be used to load a plot
template to another project.
NOTE: To open a saved
OFM graph file, select File >
Open from the plot window.
The plots graphical representation can be saved as an image.
OFM supports several image formats – Windows Bitmap Format
(*.bmp), JPEG Interchange Format (*.jpg), Tag Image File Format
(*.tiff), and Enhanced Metafile Format (*.emf). Users can also
select Edit > Copy and then Paste the clipboard contents to
another application.

Reporting
Reporting
OFM, as an analytical tool, has its own features tailored for
specific needs. It has the advantage of having more than 230
system functions and an environment for writing macro-like
functions. An OFM report has been proven to be a powerful and
effective tool for outputting information, processing/manipulating
data, and testing customized variables. Unlike plotting, the fields
displayed on the report do not have to be pre-constructed
variables.
Prerequisites
Before going directly into the report module, it would be useful for
you to get a basic understanding of different types of OFM
variables.
Learning Objectives
•
Create a Monthly Report
•
Create a Daily Report
•
Create a Sporadic Report
•
Formatting a Report
•
Additional Report Tools
•
Exporting to Microsoft Excel
Schlumberger Public
In this module, you will successfully learn how to perform the
following procedures:
Lesson 30 OFM Reports
The OFM Report module is primarily used for retrieving datedependent data. Depth-dependent data (such as Log information)
are output to the Log Report module. The Report module
provides an interface for SQL-like statements and a result window.
You can design and customize the output to present their data. A
user–friendly editor includes many useful tools a practical
reporting application should have.
Rules
•
Do not mix sporadic variables with either monthly or daily
variables on the report.
•
Static data can be retrieved at any time because they are
unchanged with time.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
243
Schlumberger
Reporting
•
Monthly and Daily data are date-based, and there are
algorithms to allow them to work compatibly (though not
recommended).
•
Sporadic data, on the other hand, are different. When
processing data requests, OFM 2007 treats sporadic data the
same way it does monthly or daily data. In OFM 2007
sporadic data also can be grouped, unlike in previous
versions.
•
Any arithmetic calculation involving a null operand results in a
null.
•
A null data point is an empty data point. An empty cell in
Excel constitutes a null (an empty field) in Access. Sometimes,
a null is equivalent to a zero (0). Other times, it constitutes a
missing data point.
•
In-line calculations are allowed on the report. Thus, resulting
null values could easily happen. In such a situation, you may
need to have some null-handling procedures before carrying
out the calculations in order to not see the nulls.
•
On the report, a numeric null is displayed as an asterisk (*).
All OFM variables can be reported. The variables can be
accessed from the Project Variables list in the Edit Report dialog
window. In this lesson, you will learn to create simple reports to
output monthly (with static), daily (with static), and sporadic data.
Exercise 68 Creating a Monthly Report
In this exercise you will create a monthly report.
1. Clear any previously applied filter.
2. Group all the wells together by clicking the Group icon.
3. Select Analysis > Report or click the Report icon located
in the Analysis toolbar. A blank report displays.

Lesson 31 Report Variables
Schlumberger
Reporting
4. In the Select text box, enter @name(), date,
monthlyprod.oil, monthlyprod.gas,
monthlyprod.water.
Schlumberger Public
@name() is a system function. You can click the System
Functions button and select Name from the list. The @ sign
and the parentheses are automatically added to denote this is
an OFM system function.
Date, monthlyprod.oil, monthlyprod.gas, and
monthlyprod.water are all input variables. You can type them
in (with the commas), or select the variables from the list to
add in (again, double-click or highlight-and-Add). To access
variables, you have to be on the Project Variables level.
Since you are currently on the System Functions level (to get
@name()),click the Project Variables button. After you add a
new variable into the Select variable list (without typing),
OFM adds a comma after the last variable to separate it with
the newly added variable.
The Keypad contains Command/Keyword buttons, logical
operators, and numeric keys. If needed, you can add them to
the Select box (without selecting the Add button).
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
245
Reporting
Schlumberger
5. Click OK. OFM generates the report and displays it in the
OFM main window.
The first variable (@Name()) is a static variable, as it is a
constant with respect to time. The other variables are in
monthly frequency.
6. Click Next in the Step toolbar to go through a couple of wells
to see how the data is refreshed. Sometimes you will get to a
well that does not have monthly data. When this occurs an
empty report displays.
8. Double-click on the report and add sc.reservoir,
monthlyprod.gor, and ratio.gor to the Select text field.

Imagine that you are working on a shared (network) project, which
has thousands of wells. You are interested in just a hundred wells
that belong to a certain field and you have to go on a business trip
for a while. Knowing that you will not have the network connection,
you may have to do something beforehand so you can still work
on your project while out of the office.
OFM provides some useful options that can be used to copy all
the data or a subset of the data for the filtered list of wells to your
local hard drive. You can export all the critical information to text
files so you can rebuild your complete database if something goes
wrong. For maintenance purposes, you might want to keep a copy
of all the text files (definition data). All the exporting options
(related to the project) can be accessed from the global Database
menu.

OFM Tools and Settings
If Dynamic is selected, factors greater than one are assumed to
be percentages.
Lesson 40 Data Normalization
Not all wells start producing at the same time, and for many well
potential studies, users want the option to bring all the wells to the
same starting point. OFM can shift all the wells (entities) to the
same base point (i.e., start of work-over, start of decline) using a
functionality call normalization.
Do not misunderstand “normalization” in OFM with a conventional
understanding of “normalization” (normalized to one). In a sense,
data normalization in OFM is equivalent to time-shifting data.
288
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
Only the variables that have the Multiply by Factor option (in the
Grouping Options section of the Math tabbed page) turned on
are affected and so are their derived variables.

Lesson 41 Data Register
A data register is used to store cumulative values for a field or
region to normalize data and calculate cross-table values by
interpolating between tables or lookup data between tables. Data
Registers are useful to compare two or more wells in a report and
interpolate data between two known points. Created data registers
can also be displayed on plots.
The Data Registers do not provide access to data that are not in
memory. They provide access to data that have been placed in
memory, i.e., the data register. OFM provides a concept name
Data Registers to register data and recall the registered data for
subsequent calculations.
OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals

8. Select Blue_1:Li_1C.
On an individual well level, the monthly oil production and the
average oil production are the same. On a group level, you
expect them to be different . The ratio of individual oil
production (the well) to the average production of an entity (a
reservoir which the well belongs to) determine the
performance of that well compared to the average. A ratio
greater than unit (1) is considered above average and vice
versa.

OilField Manager 2007 Fundamentals
Schlumberger Public
20. Click OK. The Edit Report window closes and the report is
updated.
Schlumberger
OFM Tools and Settings
CV.AveOil was saved to the data register; as long as the
report displays CV.AveOil under the same conditions as the
data register was saved, the variables will be the same. The
only reason the last two columns display differently is because
one displays no decimal places and the other displays two, as
the note to the left states.
21. Double-click on the report. The Edit Report window displays.
Schlumberger Public
22. Edit the report parameters and add
monthlyprod.oil/@reg( 1, Date, “date”) to the
parameter list. Click OK.
23. Increase the number of decimals in the last column. The
report refreshes. Navigate through all the wells to verify the
results.
The second argument of the @reg() function (i.e., Date) is an
output frequency (control) variable. If the variable there is not
the same as the X variable being registered, in that register
location (first argument of the function), OFM performs linear
interpolation of the Y variable. There is no extrapolation
scheme in the @reg() function.
24. Unlock the register and observe the difference.
