G01 • General document Features
In an Amethyste document, it is possible to create an unlimited number of cases,
corresponding to different situations encountered along the well life or different scenarios. Any
new case can be created with elements coming from an existing case.
The bold ‘Case’ tab displays the active case information.
The ‘Browser’ tab displays the document structure in a tree view and gives the user a clear
representation of the current document content. The information relative to the different
sections of the cases can be quickly accessed by selecting the corresponding element in the
tree view. The information is then displayed on the right side of the working area, as shown
below for the case ‘Case 1’.

The drag and drop of the browser elements is also available, for easy copy/paste operation
between cases.

A well model defined in Amethyste can be copied into a Saphir, Topaze or Rubis documents.
The target document will then use the geometrical information and the reference flow
correlation defined in a selected Amethyste case, to compute the pressure drop along the well.
The transfer from Amethyste to another Ecrin document uses a specific option in each module:
-
For Saphir and Topaze documents, selecting the ‘Well intake’ option in an ‘Analysis’
opens a window where the user is given the option to load an Amethyste case in any of
the opened Amethyste document.
-
For Rubis documents, any existing well can have its ‘Wellbore definition’ loaded from an
Amethyste case (this opens a window where the user selects an Amethyste case in any
of the opened Amethyste document).
The transfer can also be done using the Ecrin browser, by drag and drop of an Amethyste case
directly into Saphir or Topaze (on an ‘Analysis’ node) or into Rubis (on a ‘Well’ node), as shown
in Fig. H01.1.
