Log Maintenance 

The Log Maintenance Tool creates, deletes, and renames log definitions.  This tool can also change the default log scales and lock/unlock a curve for the entire database.

To open the Log Maintenance tool:
  • Click the Maintenance button on the Main modules Logs tab

  • Main: Logs > Definitions and Maintenance...

New...

Creates a new log definition

Note that the new definition will have no log data (0 wells) associated with the new log definition.  Generally, this option is best for renaming a log trace to a new name.  After creating the new log definition, use the Logs tab's "Rename..." option to change the log to the new name.

Delete...

Deletes the log definition and all associated data for all wells in the database

Scale...

Sets the default scale for the log

Rename...
