Directional Survey Calculator (Minimum Curvature)
Works a directional survey by minimum curvature. Enter MD, inclination and azimuth for each station below a tie-in. The sheet returns, for every course, the course length, dogleg angle, dogleg severity and ratio factor, and for every station the TVD, north and east coordinates and vertical section. Courses over the DLS limit are flagged. At TD it summarises the TVD, coordinates, vertical section, closure distance and azimuth, and the highest dogleg. Plan-view and vertical-section charts show the well path.
