Enterprise Systems
Development
The oil and gas industry recognizes the
benefits of implementing enterprise systems to increase exploration, production
and recovery. With significant experience in
enterprise system development (ESD) from
business process reengineering through
system deployment, ISED staff members
have the technical expertise to support the
development and deployment of business
and technology process solutions for oil
and gas operations.
The ESD life cycle includes process modeling
to develop systems that are driven by the
business model. This life cycle functions
efficiently and effectively irrespective of the
technical domain to which it is applied.
Data Warehouse and
Data Mining
An effective data warehouse enables
clients to dramatically increase their return
on investment (ROI) by analyzing detailed
information in a wide variety of ways. Viable
candidates for incorporation into a data
warehouse in the oil and gas industry
include:
Lease acquisition and financial data
Seismic data
Well log data
Down-hole sensor data
Upstream and downstream
corrosion data
Production equipment and
performance data
Transformation Layer
Industry standard data modeling tools
Extract, transform and load
(ETL) tools
Warehouse development tools
Data mining tools for business
intelligence (BI) and executive
information systems (EIS)
Engineering Workflow
Process
Oil and gas companies understand that
standardization of engineering workflow
processes is a key factor in staying competitive. ISED engineers have participated in
numerous projects to provide process support to large organizations, and are highly
skilled in creating quality solutions to facilitate the workflow process.
Data and Map-Based
Visualization
Data and map-based visualization allows
petrochemical professionals to view large
quantities of data in flexible formats for
quick interpretation and analysis. ISED
provides clients with high-quality user
interfaces by designing, specifying, implementing, documenting and managing the
visual appearance of computer-based
information displays.
Systems Integration
The multitude of IT systems in a typical oil
and gas company present a significant
challenge for systems integration. ISED
engineers have extensive experience in
building enterprise systems using service-oriented architectures (SOA) and
bridging the gap between new and legacy systems to enable enterprise-wide
reporting capabilities.
