concept of disruption - a specific kind of innovation
that has historically threatened even the most powerful
incumbent organisations - and the impact it may have on
three segments of the oil and gas value chain: retail,
refining, and exploration and production (E&P).

Change to PetroView ESRI ArcGIS support
Commencing with the June update cycle, we will be
supporting PetroView on ArcGIS version 9.x platforms
only. Prior to this, we were supporting clients using
ArcGIS version 8.3.
Establishing a minimum version of ArcGIS 9.0 enables
us to optimise the organisation of the PetroView
geodatabase and associated layer files. This resolves
important issues, noticed by our clients, regarding the
positioning of labels and their associated properties
within the map window.
