challenge is reconciliation of this disparate data into meaningful information
resulting in business insight and better management.

Challenges with O&G Data Quality and Integration
O&G systems have different
definitions and necessary
attributes for the same data.
Production systems focus at the completion level because each reservoir is
different.
Drilling systems focus on the bores.
Exploration systems focus on the surface location.
Legal and financial systems also have different definitions.
Facilities, equipment, owner systems affect different parts of the well
lifecycle causing discrepancies in expenses vs revenue, ownership
percentages etc. Owners are handled differently across systems and
dependent upon where they are associated in the well life cycle
Note: Systems, processes and users must be harmonized as part of the integration process.
Long established processes
OCM (Organizational Change Management) is a big part of integration.
many people have been doing things in a certain way for so long and have
no idea why. Once the systems are integrated…
…they can’t do things the old way
…they can’t operate in silos. They will have to work departments
and systems they might not even know existed before this
initiative
…Data may no longer be updated in the system they use as it isn’t
the system of record for that data.
Communicating expectations
Users will assume that data will “automatically” (“automagic”) go
completely from one system to the next rather than understand phases
of integration.
Therefore it’s important to…
…manage the business expectation of integration. This requires
an effective means of communication.
…proper training and certification on tools, processes and data

Adaptors, API’s, or SDK’s have been created by multiple consulting and software companies to integrate applications into PPDM. Most are not packaged solutions and use different technology. Informatica and Petrosys among others have created their own adaptors to integrate with PPDM. The only company with a comprehensive integration solution is Tibco’sOpenSpirit. It integrates to the following in varying degrees:EPOS OpenWorks/SeisWorksGeoFrame IESX/CharismaFinder Kingdom PetraPPDM - Oracle onlyRecallSegySDEStudioThe limitation to this is that it only supports Oracle PPDM integration.Competitors to PPDM are Seabed by Schlumberger, OpenWorks by Halliburton, and Oracle’s Digital Oilfield. All 3 of these competitors are not PPDM compliant but use PPDM’s data model as the basis. Seabed focuses more on the products sold and supported by Schlumberger. Openworks is Oracle compliant only. It is more of a Master Data Program specific to project management of well analysis. It stores raw or bulk petrotechnical data, stores final data, has its own ETL that integrates specifically to Landmark and can connect to other data sources. Has a UI for Master Data and cartography.Oracle has a product Digital Oilfield that provides reporting using Hyperion and Essbase cubes as well as a flexible SOA compliant structure. It does not appear to have standard reports.
