Can I estimate pore pressure, fracture gradient and mud weight window by using only excel sheet??
@microsoft office
@fracture
@reservoir
@Excel
Relevant answer
Answer
It is possible to estimate pore pressure, fracture gradient, and mud weight window using only Microsoft Excel. Here's a general approach:
1. Collect the necessary data: You will need well log data (such as resistivity, sonic, and density logs) and drilling data (such as formation depths, mud weight, and drilling fluid properties) for the well you are analyzing.
2. Create a new Excel spreadsheet and enter the data into the appropriate cells. Organize the data into columns and label each column with a descriptive heading.
3. Calculate the pore pressure using one of several methods, such as the Eaton method or the Bowers method. These methods use different equations to estimate pore pressure based on well log data. You can find these equations online or in textbooks on well logging and formation evaluation. Here's an example of how to use the Eaton method:
- Calculate the normal compaction trend line for the formation using the density log and the depth values.
- Calculate the overburden pressure using the normal compaction trend line and the depth values.
- Calculate the effective stress using the overburden pressure and the pore pressure.
- Use the resistivity log to estimate the water saturation.
- Use the estimated water saturation and the effective stress to calculate the pore pressure using the Eaton equation.
4. Calculate the fracture gradient using the Eaton or Matthews-Kelly methods. These methods use different equations to estimate the fracture gradient based on the pore pressure and other well data. Here's an example of how to use the Eaton method:
- Calculate the minimum horizontal stress using the pore pressure, the density log, and the depth values.
- Calculate the maximum horizontal stress using the minimum horizontal stress and a stress ratio (which can be estimated based on the formation properties).
- Calculate the fracture gradient using the maximum horizontal stress and a safety factor (which can be based on the drilling conditions and the experience of the drillers).
5. Calculate the mud weight window by subtracting the pore pressure from the fracture gradient. This will give you the range of mud weights that can be safely used for drilling.
6. Visualize the data and results using graphs and charts. You can create plots of the well log data, the pore pressure, the fracture gradient, and the mud weight window to help you analyze the data and make decisions about drilling operations.
Note that these are just general steps and there may be other factors to consider depending on the specific well and formation being analyzed. It's also important to note that the accuracy of the estimates will depend on the quality and accuracy of the data used.
Hope it helps!!

I tried using Gigasheet but it does not have many features that are available in excel. Suggest me some freely available sources where I can load my ~1.7 million rows and do some calculations like sort multiple columns, remove duplicates
TIA
Relevant answer
Answer
I'd do this in R. It's free and sufficiently powerful to hande such tables with ease.
This could be an example work-flow (assuming you have a file named "my_huge_file.txt" which is a tab-delimited text file with many rows and a header row that contains the texts "ID", "value", "name" and "amount" [just for example!] as column names):
# read the file into a data.frame:
df <- read.delim("my_huge_file.txt")
# sort the rows by values in the column "name", then "value":
df <- df[order(df$name, df$value), ]
# remove all rows with dupplicate entries in the column "ID":
df <- df[!duplicated(df$ID), ]
# get the 5 rows with the largest values in the column "amount":
o <- order(df$amount, decreasing = TRUE)[1:5]
df <- df[o, ]
# getting the mean of the values in the colum "value"
# by each value in the column "name":
tapply(df$value, INDEX = df$name, FUN = mean)

Hello Everyone,
I am sure most people have the same question on their minds. I already see some questions on ResearchGate but couldn't see the proper answer.
The question is: How do you people write papers on Linux? Mainly, what do you use for a citation?
LibreOffice and OpenOffice have the Mendeley plugin, however, both have compatibility issues with Microsoft Office. This creates a big problem with collaborative work. Regardless of the compatibility issues, both software is not easy to use, or at least not for people who have used Microsoft Office for decades.
I tried Google Docs, and it has a few citation plugins (ie. Paperpile) but again there are sometimes compatibility issues with Microsoft Office, plus, Google docs (writer) lacks most of the functions (ie. vertical text on tables).
I am currently using WPS office which is easy to use and fully compatible with Microsoft Office but there is no Mendeley (or other citation) plugin. It has an "Endnote" function, but I have to manually type the citation, which is torture.
So, do you have any suggestions rather than buy an Apple Mac or return to Windows?

Again, how do you solve the compatibility problem between LibreOffice and Microsoft Office?

Hi all,
When I used the baranyi and huang models to estimate the experimental enzyme activity data, when the experimental activity values reached a certain level, the models did not estimate the experimental data and failed the calculations. Microsoft Office program was used for calculations. What could be the reason? I would appreciate it if you would share your views and suggestions on this situation.
Regards,
mustafa
Relevant answer
Answer
Could you explain a bit more what you mean by "failed the calculations"?
There are several reasons why it may fail. One of them is that the Excel solver is not the most efficient method for parameter estimation. If that's the case, the use of the tools suggested by Wiaslan Figueiredo Martins would help.
A second possible reason is that the model is not suitable to describe your data. The Baranyi and Huang growth models are usually used for microbial growth, but you mention that you are studying enzyme activity. I am not familiar with that particular field, but if your data does not have a sigmoid shape, neither the Baranyi nor the Huang model will be able to describe the data.
A third reason could be parameter identifiability. It is possible that the model is suitable for your data, but the quality/quantity of your data is not enough to estimate every model parameter. A typical example is when you are trying to fit the model but your data did not reach the stationary phase. In that case, the parameter describing the carrying capacity (ymax in Baranyi) cannot be estimated.
Parameter identifiability is a rather complex topic. There is a very nice article by Vilaes et al. where they make a comprehensible description, describing common pitfalls and how to avoid them:
As a summary, before trying to just fit the model with the online tools, I would make sure that the model is suitable to describe the data and that your data is good enough to estimate the model.

The research is to describe the corrections made by the Microsoft Word Text Editor spellcheck .
What are the correction levels addopted? What rules are used in order to make the corrections? What types of errors are not detected or are corrected wrongly? Why these corrections of errors occur? What rule would have caused this error? Could you suggest me some researches on that line?
Relevant answer
Answer
dear researcher
A basic spell checker carries out the following processes:
It scans the text and extracts the words contained in it
It then compares each word with a known list of correctly spelled words (i.e. a dictionary). This might contain just a list of words, or it might also contain additional information, such as hyphenation points or lexical and grammatical attributes.
An additional step is a language-dependent algorithm for handling morphology. Even for a lightly inflected language like English, the spell-checker will need to consider different forms of the same word, such as plurals, verbal forms, contractions, andpossessives. For many other languages, such as those featuring agglutination and more complex declension and conjugation, this part of the process is more complicated.
different rules applied are

I have a genome sequence however, sequence is in microsoft word file and annotation is present in excel file. How can I convert/merge this information into genbank format.
(sequence is not submitted to any database)
Relevant answer
Answer
The simplest option may be a bit of a combination of the two answers above, that is something along the lines of the following:
  1. Open your sequence data in Word
  2. Choose to Save As, and select the drop down format option Plain text from the drop down menu. Now, your saved sequence will be in plain text format. We don't know what sequence  format it is in, but that might not be relevant.
  3. Navigate to http://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/sfc/readseq/ and upload your plain text sequence file with the Choose file button. Make sure that Input Format selection is set to Auto-detected.
  4. Convert this to GenBank, or any format that can be imported into the sequence editing software of your choice, that can also export to GenBank
  5. Depending on the sequence editing software you use, you may then be able to directly import the annotation data such that it is applied directly to your sequence
  6. Finally, you could export the annotated sequence from the sequence editing software in GenBank format.

Question

I am attempting to define exactly why (or if) MS office tools are inappropriate for professional engineering work. I would claim that for any professional work, in science and engineering, there are some basic functions that should be easy to work with in simple direct ways. Revision control, finding differences in data and documents and merging document edits all seem to be central to tracking and managing all documents. Data oriented tools should allow clear separation of process and data, and easy means of iterating and comparing the results over differing data sets. These operations have pretty questionable support in MS tools. Are these core requirements in your view? Are there other differences that are worth discussing?
Relevant answer
Answer
To Mark Haefner:
Just a note regarding engineering: the word is derived from the same root as 'genius', and the word 'engine' in English comes from the same root. In Latin languages what is called in English 'engine' is 'motor', or 'machine'. So it is quite confusing that in English the basic word 'engineer' means 'someone who operates engines'. The word 'ingineur' in French and similar words in the Latin languages are derived not from 'engine' but---as I indicated---from 'genius'. Today there is still confusion in English, but not in other languages. In France an 'ingineur' does not operate a locomotive. It is unclear to me why in English (in particular in UK English) the word engineer is common to mechanics and highly skilled engineers. But btw, in the times of Da Vinci someone who studied science was an engineer of constructions and machines as well.
