1. A system for handling well information, comprising:
- a sensor associated with a well and to produce sensor data;
a memory coupled to receive sensor data and store the sensor data;
an electronic storage; and
a processor, wherein the processor is configured to perform executable instructions stored in a non-transitory tangible medium, wherein the instructions cause the processor to;
receive sensor data from the sensor;
determine whether the sensor data is active data, based, at least in part on whether the sensor data is from a current well, and if the sensor data is active data;
storing the sensor data in the memory;
otherwise, if the sensor is not active data;
storing the sensors data in the electronic storage;
where the memory is capable of being read at higher speed than the electronic storage;
and wherein the executable instructions further cause the processor to;
determine whether sensor data stored in the memory is no longer active data and, if so, identify the sensor data as not active.

Abstract
Embodiments of systems and methods for classification and storage of acquired well data according to the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention a system for handling information generally includes, but is not limited to, a sensor associated with a well and a memory coupled to receive data from the sensor and store the data. The system also includes a processor programmed to read data identified as active from the memory and programmed to read other data from an electronic storage, where the memory is capable of being read at higher speed than the electronic storage.
