Abstract:
1. Non-transitory computer readable medium configured to create an executive dashboard producing an dynamic real time well log with an editable display, wherein the non-transitory computer readable medium stored in data storage connected to a processor accessible to a plurality of client devices via a network, wherein the non-transitory computer readable medium instructs the processor to perform a series of steps and the computer instructions comprise: a. computer instructions to form a dynamic well log template; b. computer instructions to import user information into the dynamic well log template; c. computer instructions to continuously import 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, simultaneously a member of the group comprising: well sensor information from a well sensor, well event based observation data from an observation source; well fluid testing data from a testing source, or combinations thereof, into the dynamic well log template; d. computer instructions to use the information of the populated dynamic well log template to scale the well sensor information, the well event based observational data, the well fluid testing data, and form scaled values while connecting the scaled values with the user information thereby creating the executive dashboard of the scaled values and the user information with the dynamic well log template comprising: e. computer instructions to compute a navigable microview log plot comprising an index and scaled values for a defined drilling interval less than an entire logging interval with at least one graphically drilling information track which can be viewable on the executive dashboard and a navigable macroview log plot that refers to an entire drilling project at any point in time with an index and scaled values and presented on the executive dashboard simultaneously using the scaled values associated with the user information and display the computed log plots on the executive dashboard; and f. computer instructions to form a plurality of control buttons that allow a user to navigate on the executive dashboard, wherein the control buttons comprise a job menu button, a save button, and a view menu button; wherein the macroview log plot, the microview log plot, or combinations thereof are displayed simultaneously, on a real time basis with other information on the executive dashboard enabling a user to achieve safe drilling with fewer accidents, wherein the microview log plot comprises at least one track and an index and at least one curve corresponding to the index; and wherein the executive dashboard enables safety interpretations for drilling, geological interpretations for drilling, operational interpretations for drilling, and combinations of these interpretations, in real time by multiple client devices simultaneously.
