Directional Drilling vs Mining Methods

The Directional Drilling provides the useful tools for the drilling of oil wells with well planning, survey data, multilateral wells, plotting in vertical section, plan view and in X-Y-Z (3D), easy tools to create 2D wells and also to calculate 3D sections, calculations between two survey stations and formulas. This app is designed for both iPhone and iPad. You can download it on your iPhone and also on your iPad. The well planning and survey stations can also be imported from CSV text files, for example: "MD","INC","AZI","TVD","N/S","E/W" "1000.0","0.0","0.0","1000.0","0.0","0.0" "1100.0","3.0","10.0" "1200.0","6.0","15.0" ... The values can be "quoted" or unquoted and separated by: - Comma: 1.00,2.00,3.00 - Semicolon: 1.00;2.00;3.00 or 1,00;2,00;3,00 - Tab: 1.00 2.00 3.00 (TSV file) - Space: 1.00 2.00 3.00 Please, before you buy, make sure this app will be useful to you. Visit our website at www.wellcontrol.com.br and check the "User Guide". This app was developed based on existing spreadsheets. There is no comparison with any other software. Our goal was to create a low-cost application with the help of experts to share with drilling engineers, technicians, drillers, students and teachers of drilling engineering. There is no intention to replace the professional softwares. You can contribute with suggestions for improvements, correcting the translation to english, reporting bugs and spreading it to your friends. Features: 1.

Mining Method Selector is an intuitive iPhone/iPad app designed to help mining engineers, students, and industry professionals identify the most suitable underground mining method for a given deposit. Using key deposit indicators (KDI) and key mining indicators (KMI) from A. Nieto (2010), the app guides users through a step-by-step input process, performs logical decision analysis, and displays the recommended mining method along with illustrative images. Its clean user interface includes a quick-access menu for related reference tables and a compact citation for academic reference.
