Using two points

This function allows to generate a wellbore trajectory by seeting kick-off point (KOP) and target.

well_profile.two_points(points, inner_points=20)

Parameters

• points – {‘kickoff’:{‘north’: num, ‘east’: num, ‘tvd’: num}, ‘target’: {‘north’: num, ‘east’: num, ‘tvd’: num}}

• inner_points – number of points between curved zone

Returns

a wellpath object with 3D position

>>> import well_profile as wp
>>> well = wp.two_points({'kickoff': {'north': 0, 'east': 0, 'tvd': 100},
>>>                       'target': {'north': 500, 'east': 800, 'tvd': 800}})
