Uncompensate Test Point Inspections

If you want to exclude one or more test point inspections in a compensation run, or want to change the inspection reading to zero (0) for one or more test points, use the Un-Compensated Inspections window in the Telluric workspace to apply ForceZero or Exclude as needed.

ForceZero applies no telluric correction to the selected test point inspection(s). Exclude removes the selected test point inspection(s) from the compensation run.

  1. Select the pipeline segment you want to work with in the Select ROWs window. Then click save icon Save to close the window.

    Open the Telluric workspace in CPDM. Click Data Entry > Edit CPDM Data > Test Point > Inspection > Telluric tab.
