  • Publication number: 20150095279
    Abstract: A method for field management includes analyzing exploration and production (E&P) data sets to generate digital fingerprints of the E&P data sets. Each of the digital fingerprints represents a statistical characteristic of an E&P data set. The method further includes augmenting, by a computer processor, data set indices of the E&P data sets based on the digital fingerprints to generate augmented data set indices, retrieving, in response to a user search input and using the augmented data set indices, a selected E&P data set from the E&P data sets, and presenting the selected E&P data set.

  • Publication number: 20140204121
    Abstract: A method for augmenting an immediate user task includes obtaining role information identifying a role of a user within an oilfield company. The user is performing oilfield operations in a field. The method further includes identifying a current location of the user in the field to identify the immediate user task being performed by the user in the field, defining, using the role information, a user perspective of the user, selecting metadata corresponding to the user perspective to obtain selected metadata, and presenting the selected metadata to the user.

  • Publication number: 20140195290
    Abstract: The invention provides a system, method, and computer readable medium for facilitating the execution of one or more tasks. Task data pertaining to a plurality of tasks and worker data pertaining to one or more workers may be saved to a computer system. Each worker may be provided with an electronic device capable of determining and transmitting its geographical location (and thus the worker's geographical location) to the computer system via one or more computer networks. In one embodiment, task data and worker data may be analyzed and compared in order to identify eligible workers for each task. Once eligible workers have been identified, they may be assigned to one or more tasks and notified accordingly. In one embodiment, the task data and worker data stored by the computer system may be dynamically updated to reflect worker assignments and completed tasks.

  • Publication number: 20140195295
    Abstract: The invention provides a system, method, and computer readable medium for facilitating the execution of one or more tasks. Each worker may be provided with an electronic device capable of determining and transmitting its geographical location (and thus the worker's geographical location) to the computer system via one or more computer networks. In one embodiment, the system allows for the tracking of each task or work-related activity performed by each worker. The system may include pre-determined workflows to assist the worker in completing a task. Workflows may include recommended solutions to problems that may be encountered given the project or task at issue. In one embodiment, one or more effectiveness metrics may be utilized in order to ascertain the effectiveness of one or more of the workflows.
