Abstract
A method for generating a depth-indexed data structure for a reaming operation includes receiving, by a software process, i) well logging data that includes time-indexed data and depth measurement data for an oil well drilling rig, ii) a selection identifying a depth range for a reaming operation by the drilling rig, and iii) values for a certain parameter indicating an operating mode for the drilling rig. Then the software process extracts, responsive to the selected depth range and one of the values of the parameter, a section from the well logging data within the selected depth range, and generates from the section the depth-indexed data structure for the reaming operation.
