One gap, from white cell to filed
A digital well file gap on 14-002, found under an old name and filed
An asset engineer wants to recomplete an upper zone behind pipe, and the well's file has no cement bond log. Without a barrier record, the file cannot go to review.
demoThe wells, the boxes, the earlier holder and the people are sample data.

12,704 white cells: the records each well should hold and does not
Well records analystThe wall puts 3,180 wells down the side and 28 kinds of record across the top. A white cell is a missing record; a cell that does not apply to that well says why. Of the 12,704 gaps, 8,413 have a page on file saying the record was made. The analyst starts where a gap blocks real work.

14-002 has no cement bond log, but the night's hunt found a candidate
Well records analystClicking the bond log column lights its gaps field by field. On 14-002 the cell reads missing, found, waiting for a person. The side panel already lists each place the hunt went, so the analyst sees the trail before she opens a page. A find is only a proposal until a second person has checked it.

Report 49 says the log was run, so the hunt kept going until it found it
Well records analystThe search record reads like a records analyst's notes. Nothing under 14-002, its old name or its slot name. The daily report says the bond log was run, so one existed. The handover list maps the old name, the box index points to six wireline print files, and 1,904 pages later page 147 of one box is the header.

Page 147 of a whole-box scan, filed under the earlier holder's well name
Well records analystThe page shows the log header with the values the agents read marked on it: casing shoe, logged interval, top of cement in the remarks. Three checks sit beside it, and each one agrees: the old name is on the handover list, the run date falls inside the drilling dates, and the shoe matches the casing report.

She proposes the filing, and the screen will not let her accept it
Well records analystWith all three checks agreeing, the analyst proposes filing it to 14-002. The decision panel says the checker must open the page after it is proposed before deciding. A bond log is a barrier record, so it is checked on its own, outside any lot. Her name goes on the proposal and nowhere else.

Accept stays grey until the lead has opened the page himself
Well records leadViewing as the records lead, the accept button is disabled and the only way forward is to open the page. No timer opens it and a redraw does not count. A lead who has to check a few hundred finds a week cannot pass this one on the strength of a green tick.

Filed to 14-002, accepted after opening the page
Well records leadHe opens the page first, then accepts it at 09:12. The state reads in the file, with both names: proposed by the analyst, accepted by the lead after opening the page. The history keeps each step, and a filing can still be reopened, given a reason and the name of someone else who agrees.

The white cell fills and the count drops to 12,703
Well records leadBack on the wall, 14-002's bond log cell is filled, and the panel shows the box, the pages and how it was checked. One gap is small, yet it is the one between an engineer and a recompletion plan, and the record of where it was found stays with the well for the next person.

The file answers top of cement at 6,180 ft, and cites the page
Asset engineerThe engineer asks 14-002's file where the top of cement is. The answer gives 6,180 ft from the log's remarks, the logged interval and the box and page, and says it does not judge the bond. Before the lead accepted the page, the same question called the find unconfirmed. Whether the cement is good enough goes to a named person.
