Abstract

Converting 3D Lateral Data using Arcpy for Display in ArcGIS Pro
Track: Petroleum
Authors: Ben Kennady, Ray Jimenez

Oil and Gas laterals are submitted in csv format. This project used the Python arcpy module to convert laterals into an m enabled 3D feature class. This data was then used to add perforations along the line based on m values using another python script. These scripts allowed non GIS users to incorporate this process into their current workflows. This data was then displayed in an ArcGIS Pro Scene so that analysts could view where perforations are located in relation to 2D extruded leases.
