Engineer's Desktop applications share other, User Interface and EDM architecture, components such as:
Security (refer to the EDM Administration Utility Help for details)
Simultaneous Activity Monitor (SAM), for Multi-User support
Unit System Editor - Accessed from the Tools menu of drilling applications. (see Unit System Editor Help for details)
Well Explorer for consistent Data Management and Navigation
Change History
The EDM Drilling Data Migration Guide included with the Engineer's Desktop release details the procedure to migrate legacy data sets to the EDM database platform. Common data from COMPASS, WELLPLAN, and DIMS™ databases can be merged into the EDM database to create one set of shared business objects, preventing future duplication of information.
Although the common database improves integration between drilling, production, and economics products, products that do not use the common database can still share data using DEX™ . Applications migrated to the EDM database still support DEX, which enables import/export data integration with 3rd party software products (e.g. Halliburton's SUMMIT™ field reporting system; Baroid's WELLSIGHT® 2000 fluids reporting system).

Query and Template Import/Export
Data Analyzer software is an easy-to-use, powerful tool that assists OpenWells users to realize maximum value from their captured well operations information. Data Analyzer software provides all user levels the ability to quickly and easily build simple and complex ad-hoc queries against OpenWells drilling and well services data. Ad-hoc queries can be generated with the user selecting from familiar user-defined labels and data input structure.
iWellfile software is a web-enabled reporting application that provides well operations morning reports, summary reports and all other information contained in the OpenWells application. This information is instantly available to anyone searching for well file information - including drilling, production, reservoir and completion engineers, management, HSE, finance and business analysts - over the Internet and virtually anywhere in the world.
OpenWells software provides comprehensive wellsite operations reporting, communications, analysis and engineering information in a corporate information management system. The OpenWells application is used to capture data for drilling, completions, well services operations, and site construction to reclamation.
Wellsite operations reporting offers a new look and feel by taking advantage of the flexibility of Java-based architecture and Landmark's Engineers Database Model (EDM) to provide integration between Landmark Drilling, Completions, and Production applications.
Real-Time View software is a visualization and analysis tool used by engineers for viewing time-based drilling data logs for any selected Well, Event, Report or Activity. Real-Time View software is integrated with OpenWells software, and uses the LAS and ASCII formats standard to import log and real-time data into the EDM database. WITSML data can also be imported using Landmark's OpenWire® application. Real-Time View software is provided with a rich set of editing tools to allow customized log templates to be created for almost any layout.
StressCheck software is an easy-to-use engineering tool for the design and analysis of casing strings. StressCheck can yield significant savings in total casing costs by providing a variety of automated formulations for specifying realistic burst, collapse, and axial loads, rather than traditional worst-case maximum load profiles, and by facilitating optimization of the number and length of casing string sections. In some cases, as much as 40% can be saved in comparison to casing designs developed by conventional methods.
WELLCAT software calculates accurate temperature and pressure profiles which can be used for pipe-body movement and casing and tubing load analysis. The software integrates five modules (Drill, Prod, Casing, Tube, and MultiString) into a common environment to provide more accurate and reliable solutions to complex design problems. Thermal effects are modeled during drilling and production operations. A comprehensive analysis of loads and stresses on casing and tubing is provided, including service life analysis. Detailed analysis of the entire casing system is provided to understand the effects of annular pressure buildup and the interaction of all the strings in the casing and tubing system within a well. Loads and their resulting wellhead movement are evaluated to determine the integrity of the well tubulars.
Enables any engineer, from a rig supervisor to a completions engineer to a business analyst, to quickly visualize currently installed and historical wellbore information and down hole equipment in the form of wellbore schematics and reports. This allows them to be updated quickly with the current well configuration and history. Planned completions can also be displayed quickly and easily.
WELLPLAN software is a suite of applications that provide drilling and completions engineers a comprehensive set of engineering tools for analysis, well planning, modeling, and well operations optimization. Technology offered in WELLPLAN suite of software applications functions as an integrated system and includes built-in links to Landmark's well data management software.
