Column
Alias
Definition
APIWellNumber API_WELL_NUMBER - A unique well identification number consisting of (from left to right) a two digit state code (or pseudo for Offshore), a three digit county code (or pseudo for Offshore), a five digit unique well code, and if applicable, a two digit sidetrack code as defined in API Bulletin D12A.
WellName WELL_NAME - The name assigned to the well. It may be a special name or the name of the property to which the well belongs.
WellNameSuffix WELL_NAME_SUFFIX -An extension to the well name that indicates the number of times that a new wellbore has been drilled.
BottomLeaseNumber BOTM_LEASE_NUM -The number assigned to the lease that contains the bottom location of a well.
BottomArea BOTM_AREA_CODE -The designated abbreviation assigned to Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) geographical units for identification purposes and for use on maps and in data bases as applied to the bottomhole location of a well.
BottomBlock BOTM_BLOCK_NUM -Identifies a subdivision of an Official Protraction Diagram as applied to the subdivision containing the bottomhole location of a well.
CompanyName BUS_ASC_NAME -The name of a **business associate**.
SpudDate WELL_SPUD_DATE -The date that the drilling rig first begins boring into the earth's surface.
BHTotalMD This field is derived from the expression... decode(public_release_package.borehole_reached_total_depth(bv.api_well_number), 'Y', to_char(BV.bh_total_md), decode(public_release_package.lease_is_expired(l.lease_number), 'Y', to_char(BV.bh_total_md), '*****')) ...and consists of these database columns:
borehole_reached_total_depth - Unknown
api_well_number - A unique well identification number consisting of (from left to right) a two digit state code (or pseudo for Offshore), a three digit county code (or pseudo for Offshore), a five digit unique well code, and if applicable, a two digit sidetrack code as defined in API Bulletin D12A.
bh_total_md - The actual distance measured along the axis of the borehole from the rig kelly bushing to the depth of maximum penetration of the well.
lease_is_expired - Unknown
lease_number - The number assigned to a lease by the regulatory agency having jurisdiction over mineral activity in the territory where the lease is located.
bh_total_md - The actual distance measured along the axis of the borehole from the rig kelly bushing to the depth of maximum penetration of the well.
TrueVerticalDepth This field is derived from the expression... decode(public_release_package.borehole_reached_total_depth(bv.api_well_number), 'Y', to_char(BV.well_bore_tvd), decode(public_release_package.lease_is_expired(l.lease_number), 'Y', to_char(BV.well_bore_tvd), '*****')) ...and consists of these database columns:

api_well_number - A unique well identification number consisting of (from left to right) a two digit state code (or pseudo for Offshore), a three digit county code (or pseudo for Offshore), a five digit unique well code, and if applicable, a two digit sidetrack code as defined in API Bulletin D12A.
well_bore_tvd - The vertical distance measured along the axis of the borehole from the rig kelly bushing to the depth of maximum depth of the well.
lease_is_expired - Unknown
lease_number - The number assigned to a lease by the regulatory agency having jurisdiction over mineral activity in the territory where the lease is located.
well_bore_tvd - The vertical distance measured along the axis of the borehole from the rig kelly bushing to the depth of maximum depth of the well.
TotalDepthDate TOTAL_DEPTH_DATE -The date drilling on a well reached the final total depth.
StatusDate BOREHOLE_STAT_DT -The date the borehole status becomes effective.
TypeCode WELL_TYPE_CODE -Indicates the final classification of a borehole denoting the purpose of the drilling.
StatusCode BOREHOLE_STAT_CD -Indicates the conditions relating to a borehole.
WaterDepth WATER_DEPTH -The depth of the water at a well/platform location from the water level to the mud line.
BlockLookup BOTM_BLOCK_NUM -Identifies a subdivision of an Official Protraction Diagram as applied to the subdivision containing the bottomhole location of a well.
UnderwaterCompStub UNDWTR_COMP_STUB -Indicates the type of equipment installed on the underwater completion stub.
SurfaceXCoord SURF_X_COORD_LOC -X coordinate for a surface location (east-west measurement).
SurfaceYCoord SURF_Y_COORD_LOC -Y coordinate for a surface location (north-south measurement).
SurfaceLatitude SURF_LATITUDE -The latitude value of a location in the borehole. A positive value denotes north. Angle subtended with equatorial plane by a perpendicular from a point on the surface of a spheriod.
SurfaceLongitude SURF_LONGITUDE -The longitude value of a location in a borehole. A positive value denotes east. Angle measured about the spheroid axis from a local prime meridian to the meridian through the point.
