Getting Started

To start working with the nv.design module, you need to log in to the system. For details, see Logging In.

After logging in, you can create, import, or open a project (well design). For details, see Creating Projects, Importing Projects and Opening Projects.

For each project, you can select a default or configure a custom unit measurement system. For details, see Unit Selection.

All projects comprise multiple sections with the well and equipment parameters. For details, see Well Design Parameters.

When the project configuration is completed, you can generate a summary and detailed reports. For details, see Reports.

3.1 Logging In
