Intersect Seam Block Model with Solid

On the Stratigraphic tab, in the Seam Block Model group: Click Intersect with Solid to:

• Trim a seam block model to a solid, or
• Split the blocks that intersect the solid and write codes to a specified field that identifies whether those blocks lie inside or outside the solid.

Input

Seam Block Model file

Double-click (F3) to select the Seam Block Model (SBM) file that will be used as input to the process. Seam block models use variable-height blocks, which are not limited to a set sub-blocking interval. Seam splits, plies and partings are easily defined.

Optionally apply a filter to restrict the process to a subset of data.

East, North, Z fields

Double-click (F3) to select the coordinate fields in the input file.

Solid

Specify the Type and Name of the input wireframe.

The SBM file is modified in one of two ways. The options on the Trim and the Split tabs of the form will be enabled depending on the option you select here:

• Trim
• Split

Output

The results of the process can be written to the same Input file or to a separate Output file.

If this option is selected, the results of the process will be written to the input Seam Block Model file.

Seam Block Model file

If you have chosen not to modify the Input file, double-click (F3) to select the name of an output Seam Block Model file. The trimmed or split blocks will be written to this file.

Click the Forms button to select and open a saved form set, or if a form set has been loaded, save the current form set.
