Abstract

A method for visualizing oilfield data of an oilfield operation involves obtaining real-time data generated from a borehole, generating and updating a current position object, and displaying and annotating a representation of a first geology, geophysics, drilling, and production object in a display based on the oilfield data using a two dimensional (2D) callout having an attachment handle for adjusting the 2D callout according the updated location in an animation sequence in real-time responsive to updating the current position.
