SUMMARY

An automatic data processing, storage and retrieval system,

designed for use in the Great. Artesian Basin HydrogeologiC Project,

will handle geological and hydrological data held in the files of

State and Commonwealth authorities. The system is necessary for

the operation of a computer simulation model of the basin. Although

the ADP system has been designed primarily to fit the specific

project requirements, interchange of datawith existing or presently

planned systems, both in the Bureau Of,Mineral Resources and .State

organizations, can be accomplished easily.

Information from wells is collected onto transfer sheets,

then fed.intO . the:computer using the following data punch cards:

master card, well casing and screen card, lithostratigraphy card,

aquifer description card, well discharge data card, well production

card, head and temperature card, well hydrodynamics card, pumping

and flowing test card well characteristic curve card, total dissolved

solids card,- water chemistry card-1 and 2.^The first three cards

and part of the fourth card contain fixed information, while the other cards

deal with types of information which very with time.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Scope of the Great Artesian Basin Hydrogeological Prolect

The Commonwealth Bureau of Mineral Resources) Geology and

Geophysics (BMR), with the collaboration of the water and geological

authorities of Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia and the

Northern Territory started in 1971 a hydrogeological study of the

Great Artesian Basin of Australia. This involved collating and

interpreting available geological and hydrological data from the

basin with the objective of producing a simulation model as an aid

to management decisions and an assessment of the water resources

of the basin.

The model is planned to simulate the basin as a multi-

layered aquifer system, reconstructing the original (pre-1880)

steady state condition and the later development of the basin, as

a basis for forecasting its future hydrodynamic behaviour.

Collection of hydrological data started in July, 1972.

During the initial stages the suitability of the transfer sheets

for allowing the input of all relevant data to the ADP system was

checked by M. Audibert (B.R.G.M. Australia) and R.S. Abell (BMR) in

relation to the data held in state offices. As a result, some of the

original designs were appreciably modified in detail; the present

Record incorporates these modifications.

1.2 Scope of the Great Artesian Basin Automatic Data Processing System

The geology of the Great Artesian Basin is known in sufficient detail

to establish the basin's geometry and the correlation of lithostratigraphic

units and aquifers. Assessments of the permeability of the lithostratigraphic

units have still to be made.

Hydrologic data from some 40 000 wells drilled in the basin will be

used to provide the main basic information for simulation of the hydrodynamic

behaviour of the basin. The size of the Great Artesian Basin (Fig. 1), and

the amount and diversity of geological and hydrological data already collected

by State and Commonwealth authorities makes it necessary to use an automatic

data processing system (ADP).

Development of the Great Artesian Basin (GAB) started ,in 18po and

'since that date nearly 40 000 wells have been drilled. From the early

days, data in the form of drillers logs, water levels, pressure tests,

pumping tests and chemical analyses have been collected and are now held

by various water authorities: the Irrigation and Water Supply Commission of

Queensland, the Water Conservation and Irrigation Commission of New South

Wales, the Department of Mines of South Australia and the Water Resources

Branch of the Northern Territory Administration.

A vast amount of detailed geologic data has become available in

recent years (1950-1970) by work of B M It, the Geological Survey of

Queensland, the Geological Survey of New South Wales, and the Department

of Mines of South Australia.

The search for oil and gas in Australia has included drilling several

hundred exploration and production wells in the basin by petroleum companies.

These wells provide detailed geological and geophysical information;

stratigraphic drilling by BMR and state geological surveys complement the

geological knowledge in specific areas.

Wireline logging of existing waterwells has been carried out

since 1960, principally by government authorities. As most wells are

cased, the most extensively used technique has been gamma-ray logging,

but in recent years this has been supplemented by temperature/differential

temperature, continuous flowmeter and neutron logging. About 950 wells

had been logged to the end of 1972, more than 850 of them in Queensland.

The geological and hydrological data will be used to construct

a simulation model for the basin, in order to simulate the basin's hydro-

dynamics. The first stage of simulation will be performed on a digital

model, a decision determined by the availability of computing facilities in

BMR and the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization

(CSIRO), Division of Computing Research in Canberra, and the fact that many

of the model input data have to be computer-processed and generated.

The Great Artesian Basin Simulation Model (GABSIM) is programmed

in FORTRAN IV (Ungemach, in prep.) and will be run on Control Data Computer

3600 and 6600 (Cyber 76) series in CSIRO and by remote batch terminal in BMR.

Although the quantity of data is enormous, selections for quality

of data have to be made. The assumptions made for reliability of the data

will be a,major part of the data collection exercise and the study as a

Whole.

In order to manipulate even a selection of the available data,

in view of the comprehensive model simulation to be performed, extensive

use of computer processed data has to be made.

Because the original data is stored in a variety of forms and

systems, and because of the need, during the computer modelling, of central

storage and retrieval of collected data, it was clear that a specifically

designed ADP system for the project had to be developed. The design of

the present ADP system is solely to serve the specific purposes of the GAB

hydrogeologic project. However interchange of data with other systems,

Whether in BMR or State authorities, can easily be accomplished. For example

the Master card is designed in such a way that it is compatible with other

BMR and Geological Survey of QUeensland (GSQ) systems for water and petroleum

wells.

The following had to be considered in the design of the GAB-ADP

system:

- The system has to operate with minimum personnel, in minimum time,

at minimum cost.

- The system is to be used for a specific study, dealing with geological

and hydrological items, and should avoid becoming a general, national

or idealistic system, although compatability with other natural resources

data banks had to be considered.

- Standard computer equipment should be usable.

- Instruction (or data inventory) files must require minimum transfer

operations between data location and computer storage, and be designed

in such a way that complicated coding of information is avoided.

- Questionnaires should not pursue perfection but realism. In particular,

geological information, pre-eminently non-numeric, must be considered

from a practical hydrogeological viewpoint and not from the fundamental

geology aspect.

- Items should not be included in the transfer sheets in such a way that

there is any change in the degree of reliability or subjectivity.

The final product is therefore an ADP system, with the

characteristics of:

elementary approach, simple coding following a basic fixed

pattern, designed for a specific purpose, and usable on

standard computer equipment.

Fig. 2 provides a general description of the operations of

the ADP system. Fig. 3 shows, in a simplified ~ay, the location, elements

and connexion of the groundwater data in the whole watercycle and their

relation to the other components, such as surface water and meteorology.

Note that the GAB-ADP system only applies to well information

(coded 4), but it can be expanded to other information in the watercycle.

- first computer data input which is the cards, punched directly from

the transfer sheets, filled with transcribed data. This basic

computer input is used to generate magnetic tapes, which are loaded

sequentially with data from the card deck (Fig. 4). These magnetic

tapes are used for the final support of data or input to the computer.

Temporary storage during computer processing is by magnetic discs,

allowing fast selective access to information.

- the loading, checking, updating and processing software package

(GABADP) to be used for this ADP system,^. will be a program

written in FORTRAN IV. The GABADP package and listing will be

described (Krebs, in prep.).

- major operations involved in the GAB-ADP system are summarized in the

flow-chart of Fig. 4. The components of the GAB-ADP system or main

items of information are shown in Fig. 5,

1.3.2 Code explanation

The major code, which defines the transfer sheets and data cards,

consist of two characters. The first, Shown in column 1, is a numeral

referring to a component of the water cycle (Fig. 3); for the present

transfer sheets and data cards it is the numeral 4, which refers to wells.

The second character, an alphabetic character, refers to the specific

information item such as those listed in 1.3.1 and shown in Fig. 5.

1.3.3 Identification

On all transfer sheets and data cards, the same identification section

is shown. This provides an unique identification of the well about which

data are recorded, and specifies its geographical position.

The first column of the identification section, column 3, is

filled with a numeric character, indicating the State in which the well

is located (see explanation of the Master sheet for code). Column 4

is filled with the second letter of the 1:1 000 000 topographical map sheet

identification (the first letter S, being common to all Australia, is

omitted). Columns 5 to 8 refer to the numeric index of the 1:250 000 map

sheet on which the well is located (Fig. 6).

Column 9 is used to indicate whether there are subsequent cards

with more data for the same well.

Column 10 is used to indicate whether the well has been deepened

during its existence.

Column 11-15 deal with the well number, to be filled in from the

Registration Number (which are exclusive and sequential in each State),

used by the issuing authority, e.g. IWSC-Qld, WCIC-NSW, etc. Note that

the identification section is the same for an individual well on all cards,

with the exception of column 9, which contains information unique to each

card.

2. TRANSFER SHEET AND DATA CARD PRESENTATION

This chapter on the Automatic Data Processing system for use

in the Great Artesian Basin hydrogeological project, is designed as an

operator's manual for the transcription of well information on to transfer

sheets. It provides the data collection team with the guidelines needed

for this operation.

2.1 Preliminary remarks

The transfer sheets for all cards contain eighty columns on one

line, and deal with several headings and subheadings. These columns

(headings and their detailed content) have to be filled either in coded

or non-coded form, as indicated in the following explanatory notes.

One line with eighty columns on a transfer sheet correspond with

one standard IBM punch card containing eighty columns. Information recorded

on the fixed format transfer sheets will be punched onto IBM punch cards.

Al]. alpha-numeric data are to be framed on the left hand side of

the space allowed for the set of digits of the record, i.e. Left justification,

example: ALLANDALE 1

1AI L I L I A I N I D IA IL 1E1^1 if^I 1 1^right

J AJLfLfAfN J DJA J LJEIII I ^wrong

All numerical data are to be framed on the right hand side of the

space allowed for the set of digits of the record, unless the contrary is

stated in the explanatory note, i.e. right justification,

example: 530

1^1^1^1^I 5 3 I 0 1 ^right

10.

Filling of the reliability items will be done after consultation with

the geologist in charge of the data collection operation; reference should also

be made to him if any doubts occur when filling the transfer sheets.

Date items have to be filled in 2 or 3 columns, depending on the type

of transfer sheet. For the date in years, these 2 or 3 spaces refer to the

2 or 3 last numbers of the year (see note on the filling of numerical data),

example: 1892

yields either^ 1 81 9 12 1or^ J^1 9 1 2 1

Months, coded from 1 to 12 and days, 1 to 31, have to be filled in accordance

with the note on the framing of numerical data (right justification).

A blank character (quoted b in the explanatory notes) is equivalent to

zero in numerical format.

The following alphabetic and numerical characters are to be used

during the filling of the transfer sheets:

0 - zero^ - alphabetic 0

1 - one^ I - alphabetic I

2 - two^ - alphabetic Z

If these symbols are not used during the data collection stage, errors

may occur in the punching stage, subsequently causing expensive or time-consuming

errors in the processing stage.

All depths, heights and elevations are to be scheduled in feet or feet

and tenths of feet (and not in inches). Inches (and fractions of inches) are

only used for diameter measurements on the Well screen and casing sheet.

All depths or heights are taken from a reference level, which is ground

level unless stated otherwise. Provision is made on the transfer sheets for

measurements taken from other reference points.

Aquifer numbering and filling of the Lithostratigraphy sheet and parts

of the Aquifer description, Well hydrodynamics and Pumping and flowing test

sheet will be done by the geologist in the data collection team, or under his

guidance.

2.2 Master card

The master card deals with the main constant information about a well, with regard to identification

(registration number, name), geographical location, ground elevation, total depth and completion date. Other

information on this card refer to the type and use of the well, the availability of geological and geophysical

logs and the existence of other data cards with information about the well. The master card does not give

information about the amount and reliability of the information on other data cards.

Master transfer sheet

Explanation

~: Columns 3 to 15 include the main identification of the well and are repeated on all transfer sheets/cards, except for column 9, which depends on the amount of information for a well, and whether this information can be inserted on one or more cards/lines on transfer sheets. Column 9 will therefore be different for all transfer sheets/cards, while columns 3 to 8 and 10 to 15 contain the same information on all transfer sheets/cards for one well.

Columns 16 to 25 refer to the well name. If no name exists, leave columns bl8.Dk. When the name exceeds 10 characters, stop at the 10th character. If a number follows the name, the last columns must be used for the number, and a dash placed before the number. In some cases mnemonic abbreviations should be used (see example). For further explanation on abbreviations refer to Prel;minary remarks.

Note: Left justification for alphabetic data

Columns 26 to 39 refer to the well location in lo~tude and latitude.

Columns 26 to 32 refer to the longitude of the well location, in degrees (columns 26 to 28), minutes (columns 29 and 30), and seconds (columns 31 and 32).

Columns 33 to 38 refer to the latitude of the well location in, degrees (columns 33 and 34) minutes (columns 35 and 36), and seconds (columns 37 and 38).

2.4 Lithostratigraphy card

The lithostratigraphy card deals with the information about the lithostratigraphy of the well

versus depth.

The lithostratigraphy is expressed as far as possible in formations, for which names are

abbreviated to two, three, or (maxima1) four-digit a1phabetic symbols, similar to the ones used on

BMR geologica1 maps.

The a1phabetic symbols, representing formation names, are recorded versus the depth at wbich - this specific formation or lithostratigraphic unit is first encountered in the well, i.e. the top of

the formation is stated (in feet).

Columns 36 refers to the history of the outlet of the well. Changes (lowering) of the outlet are recorded in the following way:

1st lowering of outlet 1 2nd lowering of outlet 2 3rd lowering of outlet 3

~: record an unlmown number of lowerings as 9. If the outlet has been raised instead of lowered, fill column 36 with: H

Columns 37 and 38 are left for optional further information eventually required for the Well discharge rate card. Fill columns 37 and 38 with AD for an abandoned well and with LIe for a well in which leakage occurs. Second and third sets of records are to be filled in columns 39 to 58 and 59 to 78.

Columns 79 and 80 are for the folio number of the well discharge data card. This folio number refers to one well, i.e. the set of cards (and lines on a transfer sheet) to be used for one well.

The well production card deals with the production (flow or discharge) history of a well

or group of wells.

The discharge rate is recorded in relation to production periods, which may be hours per

d4y, days per week, or months. The total production of a well in a year and the type of flow are

also recorded.

The well hydrodynamics card deals with information about hydrodynamic tests (pumping or

flowing), the test characteristics, and the test results.

Test characteristics include starting and finishing dates of tests, duration of recovery,

elevation, depth of screens, screen length, distance to pumping or flowing well and the interpretation

method used (steady or unsteady state).

Test results include transmissivity values of the main confined aquifer tapped, both from

the lowering and recovery interpretation, the specific capacity of the well and the storage

coefficient. Test results for the confining bed include the thickness, vertical permeability and

storage coefficient.

The pumping and flowing test card deals with the test history in terms of measuring

conditions, together with the actual measurements.

Information about the measuring conditions include the well number, type of test,

reliability of pressure and gauging equipment, and the authority Which carried out the test.

Basic test data consist of the date the test was completed, the flow rate, static head,

standing water level or back pressure at the start of the test, and container capacity if n

container was used for measuring the discharge.

Records of time-dependant test measurements include the time in hours and minutes,

head or depth, and discharge.

Explanation

Column 25 refers to the build-up of the pressure or water-level (recovery), to be filled according to the occurrence of a build up:

unknown 0 build up occurs 1 no build up occurs 2

Column 26 refers to the sign for the head or water level below (-) or above (+) the measurement datum level. A standing water level is to be indicated as a depth with sign -, a pressure with sign +.

Columns 27 to 31 refer to the head measurement at the time the test started

Columns 27 to 30 contain the integer part of the pressure, depth, or elevation, and

Column 31 contains the decimal part.

Note: The unit in which the head measurement is expressed is shown in column 77

Five discharge and pressure or depth records are allocated to each line on a well characteristic curve transfer sheet (Which corresponds to one data card).

Columns 32 to 35 refer to the discharge rate during a test or specific test interval, characterized by the test number in column 18. If the actual amount of water is measured the discharge rate is expressed in 1000 gpd shown in this wa:y in columns 32 to 35. If the measurement is in gallons per hour, multiply by 24 before filling the columns. If the discharge rate is measured by the time required to fill a water container of known capacity, insert the time in minutes or seconds in columns 32 to 35. The unit of discharge rate measurement is shown in column 77. Insert last number in column 35, i.e. right justification.

2.14^Water chemistry - 2 card

The water chemistry - 2 card deals with the information about the actual chemical determinations

of water sampled from a well.

Information recorded on this card includes the laboratory determinations of all anions and cations

present in the water as well as the amount of hydrocarbons. The dates of sampling and analyzing the water

are also recorded.

Recording on the card is in parts per million (ppm). An intermediate, temporary, transfer sheet

and card will be used for determinations in other units and these will be converted by computer.
