Update to PetroView production profile
The production profile in
PetroView (MapInfo) was recently updated with a range of
new colours, so that all fields are displayed using a
unique shade. Additionally, when stacking a graph by
hydrocarbon type, gas is now represented in red and oil
in green. For

Unearthing the potential of Digital Oilfield
technology
The Digital Oilfield is
much talked about, but often not clearly articulated.
The truth is that many existing and new technologies
contribute to the overall concept, and there is no
clear-cut definition as to what is, and what is not,
part of the Digital Oilfield.
This paper looks back at
where the Digital Oilfield has come from, where it may
go in the future, and what challenges organisations are
likely to face along the way.
