Add and link a file

Adding seismic to Exploration Archives typically involves cataloging and linking files through the Catalog module.

However, you can add a file outside of the cataloging procedure and link the file to seismic. This may be a more suitable approach if you're adding seismic and already have an affiliated contract.

Use the File module to add and link a file (such as a contract) to seismic:

1. Under Asset Management in the navigation panel, click File.

   

   The File module opens.

2. In the File Properties panel, select NEW in the tool bar, or right-click to open the context menu then select New .

   

   The Create file and link to seismic window opens.

   The window is divided into 4 tabs:

3. In the File tab, enter the file properties.

4. For File Location click browse and navigate to the file to add.

   

5. In the Notes tab, enter a note if applicable.

6. In the Media tab, the default is set to Do not Create/Link Media. To create or link media, select the appropriate options.

7. Click the Seismic tab.

8. To locate the seismic to link the file to, click the down arrow next to Add and select a search option.

   

   The search window opens.

9. Enter the search criteria then click Search. The search results appear in the grid.

10. In the Link Column, Select the checkbox of the seismic record.

11. In the lower grid, enter the ownership and transaction detail in the applicable tabs.
