Common Mistakes to Avoid
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Entering values in wrong units for Borehole Deviation
Check the expected unit for each input field (shown as suffix). Converting between imperial and metric units before entering values prevents calculation errors.
Using inconsistent measurement units across related inputs
When a formula combines multiple measurements, all inputs must use compatible units. Convert everything to the same system (metric or imperial) before calculating.
