Export tabular Production File

Main: Project > Export > Monthly Production To > Tabular File

This tool exports the production data in a project to a tabular or comma-separated file.

File tab

  • File To Export — This entry sets the name and location  of the exported file.  Selecting the "Browse" button will open Windows Explorer.
  • File Format — Comma delimited files separate individual values with commas, while fixed column files separate individual values with spaces.
  • Do Not Output Record When All Values Are Zero — By default, Petra will export all values including months with all zero values.  This option instead prevents these months from being exported to the file.
  • Format Date Field As — This option sets how the exported file records dates.  Options include YYYY and MO columns or a single YYYYMM column.
  • Include Well Header Attributes — Available attributes include well label, number, name, and operator.

Production tab

  • Select Production Streams To Export — Includes all the production streams in the project such as Oil, Gas, and Water.

  • Selected Streams To Be Output — Includes all the streams that will be exported to the file.

Years tab

  • Export Production From/Through — This option limits the file only to only production data inside the set range.  
  • Include Year 0 — Some states record historical production in a single historical year labeled "0."  This option includes this historical year 0 data in the export file.
