I have a project to automate creating an OWX file to import into IHS Kingdom Geoscience project. I can manually download an OWX well header file from Enverus Prism. This file is in ascii format and can be viewed in Notepad ++ . I do not see a transformer the can read or write the wellheader.asc file. My guess is I would need to create a custom transformer and then parse the data. Landmark may be the original vendor to use this OWX file format.

Yeah that’s essentially what you’ll have to do.

Depending on the structure of the file will depend on what you will need to do. I think FME is a good choice though.

To read the file into FME you can use a Text File reader which can read the data line by line. I guess the data is just line by line with a prefix e.g., HXXX where each of those correspond to some particular field?
