Baker Hughes releases new version of WellLink 3D visualization service.

Powered by CoViz from Dynamic Graphics Inc., WellLink 3D provides a single, integrated 3D visualization and decision support tool that uses the industry-standard protocol, WITSML. The ability to connect directly to other WITSML data sources enables operators to visualize both off-line and real-time datasets through a vendor-neutral, shared display, says Baker Hughes.

“Data using many curves can be rendered as a single, clear and easy-to-understand symbol,” says Scott Schmidt, president of Drilling and Evaluation at Baker Hughes. “Objects such as Earth models, well trajectory, logs, and reservoir models can all be integrated and viewed in a collaborative environment. It truly is an exciting and user-friendly tool that will facilitate discussions and decision-making, especially between those at a rig site and others who may be providing input from remote locations.”
