7. Data… Systems … Data … Systems Silos of Data Operations Daily Drilling reports Daily Production Work Over Reports Failure Analysis Safety Systems Artificial lift Analysis Engineering Reserves Well Test Analysis Reservoir Simulation Nodal Analysis Economic Evaluation Well Test Analysis Geoscience Seismic Data Well logs Geo-Statistics Velocity Surveys Well locations Directional Surveys Financial LOE/LOS Budgeting General Ledger Contracts P&L Statements Accounts Payable

8. Limited Data Integration  End Users must go through a series of systems to integrate data –Integration is Typically by Department –Time Consuming –Difficult OperationsGeological EngineeringFinancial

9. Fully Integrated Data Better Information Better Decisions Better Value Must be easy to Access

10. How did we accomplished this at Newfield  Developed and communicated a simple to understand Model that described how we would run and implement our ERP  Designed IT Goals which promote the use of integrated data within IT and the company  Leveraged the P2ES Hierarchy  Added industry standard keys –UWI –Location information

12. Senior IT Goals “Bench Strength” Exploit current systems. “Evergreen” Audit and design processes to continually maintain current data. Focus on retrieving value from existing systems. ECM GIS Production Evolve today for tomorrow Training Build Knowledge

13. Keys are the Key 10 Business Unit 20 Team 30 Area95 Departments 40 Field41 Prospect 56 Lease50 Well54 Land Lease 60 Completion64 Land Tract 74 Land Depth P2ES Hierarchy

14. Keys are the Keys  P2ES Hierarchy was used to relate all internal data –Internally developed systems –Purchased 3 rd party systems  Industry Standard Keys –UWI Used to access Public and industry information –Evergreen process to assure accuracy –Latitude/Longitude Used for Spatial representation

15. Results  The Rules worked –A brief look at 3 systems –Turning Data into Value –Daily Production System –Corporate GIS –ECM (Enterprise Content Management)

19. ECM Predefined Folder Taxonomy P2ES Hierarchy Inherited Metadata from ERP Google Style File Search

20. What we Learned  Technology was not the problem –Used standard off the shelf technology –Oracle Materialized Views –ESRI Suite – Microsoft.Net  Data Keys were the Key –Leveraged the P2Es Hierarchy –Used industry standard keys  Education and pushing the IT staff to work outside of their comfort zone was essential  Once Data integration is understood it is contagious  Change Management is extremely important  Systems must not be complicated
