A system and method for perceiving drilling learning through visualization i s provided. In one embodiment using three-dimensional visualization of the earth model as a foundation, a new IT development strategy focuses on perceiving "Drilling Learning" by an intuitive method. Symbols, known as "Knowledge Attachments" are attached to each wellbore trajectory displayed in the three - dimensional environment, with each symbol indicating a specific event- such as one related to drilling operatio ns or problems. A Knowledge Attachment system proves particularly useful to represent disparate data at once, in such a manner that the interdependencies between the earth model and drilling operational data are evident and correlated. Operational issues and lessons learned from prior wells are easily accessed and perceive d in the context of the earth model. By understanding this information at the beginning of the well planning process , operational efficiencies may be improved.
